Dorofeyev Sustains Upper-Body Injury
Pavel Dorofeyev sustained an upper-body injury versus the Rangers on Friday, Chris Chapman of Fox Sports Las Vegas reports. Dorofeyev logged four shots on goal in 11:15 of ice time Friday. His status for Saturday’s game versus the Red Wings is up in the air, but Michael Amadio (upper body) is expected to be activated from injured reserve prior to that contest.
Larkin Posts Game-Winner for Goal No. 20
Dylan Larkin scored the game-winning goal in Thursday’s 3-0 victory over the Flyers. The 27-year-old roofed a bouncing puck over Samuel Ersson less than two minutes into the second period to open the scoring, and it was all the offense Alex Lyon would need. Larkin extended his point streak to 10 games in the process, a surge in which he’s racked up seven goals and 13 points. He remains on pace for a career-best season with 20 goals and 44 points in 42 contests.
