Pavel Dorofeyev and Brady Tkachuk Are Among the Familiar Faces in New Places Around the NHL
Pavel Dorofeyev, who led Vegas with 37 goals last season, joins the Rangers as a proven scorer.
The New York Rangers signed forward Pavel Dorofeyev to a seven-year, $77 million contract, bringing the 25-year-old winger to lead their offense this season.
During his time with the Vegas Golden Knights, Dorofeyev led the team with 37 goals last season and scored 12 more during their run to the Stanley Cup Final alongside Mitch Marner, Jack Eichel, and Mark Stone.
Beyond the Rangers, Alex Tuch signed an eight-year, $84 million deal with the Capitals, while Sergei Bobrovsky joined the Maple Leafs on a three-year, $21 million contract and Brady Tkachuk moved to Florida to play with brother Matthew.
Winger Tom Wilson expressed satisfaction with the aggressive roster moves, saying, "It's our team, our organization saying 'We're here. Let's try and go get this thing.'"
The Panthers are favored to hoist the Stanley Cup again after winning back-to-back titles in 2024 and 25, seeking redemption following last season's playoff miss.
