Pavel Dorofeyev is heading to the New York Rangers as part of a trade at the NHL draft on Friday night, as they hope the high-scoring winger helps supercharge their retooling effort.

The Rangers acquired Dorofeyev from Vegas for the Nos. 26 and 92 picks this year, plus a conditional first-rounder in 2028. The 25-year-old is coming off scoring 12 goals on the Golden Knights’ run to the Stanley Cup Final.

On their way there, they defeated the Utah Mammoth, who also made a big subtraction by sending a winger to the Eastern Conference. JJ Peterka is going to the Boston Bruins for the No. 23 pick and Florida’s top-10-protected ’28 first-rounder originally acquired in the Brad Marchand trade over a year ago.

Peterka is changing places for a second consecutive offseason following his move from Buffalo just over a year to the day ago. The 24-year-old from Germany now gets to play for the league’s only German coach, Marco Sturm.

“I would like to thank JJ for his commitment to our organization,” Utah general manager Bill Armstrong said. “JJ is a great person and will be a dynamic player for Boston.”

“We were trying to be aggessive and add players of the ilk of JJ,” Bruins GM Don Sweeney said, “and we’re happy to welcome him on board.”

Peterka is expected to add some scoring punch for the Bruins, as well as speed. He was traded to the Mammoth a year ago by the Buffalo Sabres, and was immediately signed to a five-year, $38.5 million contract extension. This past season he scored 25 goals with 22 assists. He costs the Bruins $7.7 million annually on the salary cap.

If the Panthers pick next year is in the top 10, then Boston gets to keep the pick and give Utah their unprotected 2029 first round pick.
