Dorofeyev registered a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev had the secondary helper on Jack Eichel's tally in the first period. Over his previous seven contests, Dorofeyev had been limited to two goals, and he hadn't registered a power-play point since Feb. 2 versus the Rangers. The 24-year-old winger is up to 38 points (14 on the power play), 179 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 61 outings this season.

Dorofeyev scored a goal on five shots in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev has been limited to three points over seven outings in February. His goal Thursday stretched the Golden Knights' lead to 5-1 late in the first period. The 24-year-old winger is up to 24 goals, 37 points, 176 shots on net and a minus-10 rating over 59 appearances in his first full NHL campaign. He's also shooting 13.6 percent, just a touch better than the 13.4 percent mark he maintained in a 13-goal, 24-point effort over 47 outings in the 2023-24 regular season, so sustainability is not a big concern.

Dorofeyev netted a goal, took three shots on target, and tallied four PIM in Saturday's 4-3 win against Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev found the twine under five minutes into the third period which tied the game at three apiece. The 24-year-old left winger has 23 goals, 36 points, and 165 shots on net in 56 games this season. Dorofeyev's breakout season offensively continues and he is tied for 21st in goals across the league. He has become a staple in the Golden Knights' top six at even strength and on the first power-play unit. The third-round selection in 2019 is slated for a strong final stretch of the season and could pass the 30-goal threshold skating with some of the most consistent playmakers in the Pacific Division.

Dorofeyev notched an assist in Thursday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev logged eight goals and five assists over the last 10 contests of January. The winger's surge comes alongside an 11-game point streak by linemate Tomas Hertl. Dorofeyev has been pretty good in his own right with 22 tallies, 12 helpers, 153 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 52 outings this season. As long as he's in the top six and on the first power-play unit, Dorofeyev should be capable of staying productive enough to help in fantasy.

Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on two shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev was held off the scoresheet in the previous two contests. The winger has eight goals and four assists over his last nine outings, a span that includes four multi-point efforts. He's up to 22 goals, 33 points, 152 shots on net and a minus-7 rating over 51 appearances. Dorofeyev was cold in December and early January, but he's gotten himself back on track and should remain a solid winger to roster in most fantasy formats.

Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on five shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over St. Louis.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev's 21st goal of the campaign gave the Golden Knights a 3-1 lead at 6:30 of the second period. The 24-year-old has only been held off the scoresheet on one occasion over his last six outings, producing seven goals and three helpers during that stretch. Dorofeyev's lethal shot has been a nice addition to Vegas' fourth-ranked power play in the NHL -- he's tied for the team lead in goals on the man advantage (nine) with Tomas Hertl. Overall, Dorofeyev is at 10 helpers and 31 points through 48 appearances this season.

Dorofeyev scored a goal on two shots and added a power-play assist in Monday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev's 20th goal of the season tied the game at 4-4 with 30 seconds left in regulation. The 24-year-old winger also reached the 30-point mark Monday, and he's surged to get there, earning six goals and three assists over his last five outings. He's added 138 shots on net, 26 blocked shots, 10 power-play points and a minus-7 rating over 47 appearances in 2024-25.

Dorofeyev notched a power-play assist in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev has earned seven points, including four on the power play, over his last three games. The winger looks to be meshing well with Tomas Hertl and Victor Olofsson in a middle-six capacity. Dorofeyev didn't do much in December but looks to be back to his productive ways. He's already secured a career year with 28 points (nine on the power play) over 45 appearances, and he's added 131 shots on net, 26 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating.

Dorofeyev scored three goals, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev was a one-man rally in this contest, but even a natural hat trick was too little to overcome what was once a 4-0 deficit. The winger has logged back-to-back three-point games following a stretch of 18 contests in which he has limited to a total of two goals and two assists. The 24-year-old now has career highs in goals (19) and points (27) while adding 130 shots on net, 26 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 44 appearances this season.

Dorofeyev scored two power-play goals on five shots and added an assist in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Dorofeyev had his best game in months, carrying the Golden Knights' offense while Jack Eichel (illness) sat out Sunday's contest. Prior to this game, Dorofeyev had been in a four-game slump. The winger is up to 16 tallies, eight assists, 126 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 43 appearances. He's played mainly on the second line recently, though he also has a spot on the second power-play unit. He'll set a new career high when he earns his next point.
