Dorofeyev Wakes Up - and Vegas Finally Gets Its Bite Back

Pavel Dorofeyev shakes off the kind of slump that has a coach staring at line combos like they owe him money, and he does it with a two-goal night. For a scorer, that first clean finish after a dry spell can feel like somebody took the skates off the brakes, and that matters even more when the pressure starts building. Vegas knows how quickly confidence can swing in this league, and a player who finds his timing again can change the look of an entire depth chart.
