After issuing Pavel Dorofeyev a qualifying offer on Sunday, the Vegas Golden Knights have re-upped with the 23-year-old for two years.

The team announced the move, which carries a $1.835 million average annual value, on Monday as part of a trio of signings.

Dorofeyev played in 47 games for Vegas in 2023-24, scoring 13 goals and registering 24 points — both career bests.

After being selected by the Golden Knights in the third round of the 2019 draft, the Russian winger made his NHL debut in 2021-22 and has skated in 67 NHL games over the past three seasons.

He made his Stanley Cup Playoff debut this spring, playing 7:11 in Game 5 of Vegas' first-round loss to the Dallas Stars.
