Pavel Dorofeyev

Ivan Barbashev isn't the only Russian that should participate in this fun contest. Pavel Dorofeyev should also test his batting skills and represent the Vegas Golden Knights. It would be a funny sight seeing the winger try to swing the bat. However, it'd be eye-popping to see him hit a home run.

Like his fellow Russian, Dorofeyev has solid speed and stride to his game, which should translate well on the diamond. He'd be more than capable of hitting an inside-the-park home run, running around the bases easily. That alone should make him a worthy pick for Vegas in this contest.

Plus, he's probably a good pitcher. Nobody knows how well Pavel Dorofeyev can throw a softball pitch. He probably has the best eephus pitch in the world, practicing his craft in Russia. The forward would be Vegas's secret weapon against their NFL opponents here.
