The New York Rangers traded for winger Pavel Dorofeyev from the Vegas Golden Knights on June 27, 2026. New York retained its No. 5 overall pick while sending the No. 26 and No. 92 picks and a conditional 2028 first-rounder to Vegas. Dorofeyev, a young goal scorer, has signed a seven-year contract with the Rangers to enhance their offensive potential. This trade benefits the Golden Knights by alleviating salary cap pressures while recouping value for a player they could not retain long-term.
