Golden Knights’ Pietrangelo questionable, Dorofeyev out for Game 2 vs. Oilers

The Vegas Golden Knights could get a key player back for Game 2 against the Edmonton Oilers.

Top defenceman Alex Pietrangelo is a game-time decision after missing Game 1 with an illness, head coach Bruce Cassidy told reporters on Thursday.

Leading scorer Pavel Dorofeyev will remain out of the lineup with an undisclosed injury, he added.

Pietrangelo, 35, played in all six games of the Golden Knights’ series win over the Minnesota Wild in Round 1 and recorded one goal and two assists. He had four goals and 29 assists in 71 regular-season games for Vegas this season.

He was replaced in the Game 1 lineup by 24-year-old Kaedan Korczak.
