Summary
The Rangers just dropped serious cash to land Pavel Dorofeyev in the 2026 draft, trading two picks and a protected 2028 first-rounder for the Russian sniper — then locking him down with a seven-year, $11M/year contract. But with Dorofeyev leaving Vegas’ elite playmaking duo (Eichel, Marner) and joining a Rangers roster lacking that kind of creativity, the pressure’s on him to deliver elite production — or face serious scrutiny. Can Lafreniere or Perreault become his new playmaking anchors? And can Dorofeyev adapt his game to thrive in New York’s system? The answer could define his legacy — and the Rangers’ future.
