00:00Pavel Dorofeev has his first big moment in a Rangers jersey, the game-tying power play goal in the third
00:07period against the Flyers.
00:09Mike Sullivan talking about how he's consulted former Rangers head coach John Tortorella, who had Dorofeev in Vegas at the
00:17end of last season.
00:18What did you make of hearing that?
00:20I was a little surprised with how forthcoming Mike Sullivan was about that, you know, for a guy who's not
00:26coaching in the league right now, too.
00:28Big moment, right?
00:29Tying the game up on a beautiful shot.
00:31That's what we know, the league knows.
00:33Everyone knows that is what Dorofeev can do, and that's what he does so well.
00:37He can beat goalies from distance.
00:39As a coach, you want to get the most out of every player, and Mike Sullivan is trying to get
00:44through to him, saying,
00:45you can be better in these areas that will give you more chances to have the puck in scoring areas.
00:51It's a battle level that is expected, and he plays a bit perimeter.
00:56He wants to find quiet ice, get the shot, score, and that is what he has needed to do.
01:01That's why they got him.
01:02He was better in Seattle, scored what turned out to be the game-winning goal on a beautiful finish, and
01:09so that is momentum.
01:10His stats look great, but his game is coming as well, which is like that, for a streaky guy, that's
01:19where you can end sort of a streakiness.
01:21If you bring that every night, you're going to get chances every night.
01:23You're going to get to the end of the game.
01:23You're going to get to the end of the game.
01:23You're going to get to the end of the game.
01:23You're going to get to the end of the game.
