Playing career

Dorofeyev played as a youth in his native Russia within the junior ranks of Metallurg Magnitogorsk. Following his second season in the KHL with Metallurg in 2019–20, Dorofeyev was traded by the club along with three other prospects to Traktor Chelyabinsk in exchange for Vladislav Semin on 11 June 2020.[2]

He began the 2020–21 season, with Chelaybinsk affiliate, Chelmet Chelyabinsk of the Supreme Hockey League (VHL), posting 8 goals and 17 points through 36 regular season games. He made his lone KHL appearance with Traktor Chelyabinsk in a 4-2 victory over Kunlun Red Star on 7 October 2020.[3]

With the pandemic delayed North American season approaching, Dorofeyev ended his contract with Traktor Chelyabinsk and was signed to three-year, entry-level contract with the Vegas Golden Knights on 25 January 2021.[4] He was then assigned to join inaugural AHL affiliate, the Henderson Silver Knights, training camp.[5]
