Pavel Dorofeyev made a significant impact in the Vegas Golden Knights' impressive 4-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild, scoring two goals during power plays and contributing an assist. This win not only solidified the Golden Knights' position among the top teams in the NHL with 61 points but also allowed them to avoid a potential three-game losing streak. The team's offensive performance surged in the third period, where they scored three goals after being locked in a tie.

Tomas Hertl also played a key role, adding a goal and an assist, while Keegan Kolesar's goal broke the tie early in the third period. Mark Stone and Shea Theodore each contributed two assists, showcasing a strong team effort. In goal, Adin Hill made 15 saves to secure the victory.

Despite a spirited effort from the Wild, highlighted by a goal from Ryan Hartman and 32 saves from Filip Gustavsson, they couldn't maintain their initial lead. The game was particularly poignant for Marc-Andre Fleury, who played for the Golden Knights from 2017 to 2021. Although he did not play against his former team, the Vegas fans honored him with cheers and chants, marking a heartfelt farewell in what could be his last appearance at T-Mobile Arena.
