Pavel Dorofeyev scored his first playoff hat trick, leading the Vegas Golden Knights to a 5-4 victory over the Utah Mammoth. His performance was crucial in tying the game and pushing it to overtime, where Brett Howden secured the win.
Brett Howden stole the spotlight in Game 5 for the Vegas Golden Knights. With a shorthanded goal in double overtime to give his team a 3-2 lead in the series against the Utah Mammoth, itâs hard not to.
But without Pavel Dorofeyev, the Golden Knights wouldnât have made it to overtime. The winger recorded his first career playoff hat trick in a 5-4 win, including the game-tying goal with 52 seconds remaining in regulation.
With 37 goals in the regular season, Dorofeyev led the Golden Knights in scoring for the second consecutive year. However, after a costly mistake in Game 4 on Monday, he rode the pine for most of the third period.
On Wednesday, he bounced back, and he did so in a big way.
âPlayers make big plays at key times,â said Golden Knights head coach John Tortorella. âPerfect timing. It's good timing. He was fighting it a little bit, but heâs found his game. Hopefully, itâll continue.â
Dorofeyev scored his first of the night on the power play with 41 seconds remaining in the first period. TomĂĄĆĄ Hertl made a play to find him all alone in the right circle, and Dorofeyev picked his spot.
His next two goals came because of his willingness to go to the net.ââ

âEverything around that net, so many things are happening. Itâs a big part of playoff hockey, protecting your blue and getting to the other blue,â said Tortorella. âThe puck seems to find him when heâs on his game. I thought heâs done a really good job of the battles, too, as far as battling for pucks. You do stuff on the other part of the game, I think you get rewarded in the strength of the game.â
Dorofeyevâs second of the night came off an excellent drop-pass by Shea Theodore after Jack Eichel won an offensive zone draw. As Theodore pressed lower in the zone, Dorofeyev went to the net. When Theodore fed him a drop-pass from below the goal line, the winger roofed it.
The Golden Knights pulled Carter Hart for the extra attacker down 4-3 late in the third period. Mammoth goaltender Karel Vejmelka made the save on Jack Eichelâs one-timer and another on Reilly Smithâs second attempt. But once again, Pavel Dorofeyev was in the right place and ready to collect the change.
âI think Doryâs game has been coming,â said Tortorella following the 5-4 overtime win. âBig credit to Dory. Iâve pushed him along here a little bit as far as his play. Heâs handled himself really well, and found a way to be a star tonight in a big game.â
