Olofsson was productive in brief stints with Colorado's top powerplay unit, but has primarily been a bottom-six player with the team this season. The 30-year-old Swedish forward has 25 points (11G / 14A) in 60 games. He scored a career-high 49 points (20G / 29A) in 72 games with the Buffalo Sabres in the 2021-22 season.

Colorado has signed Victor Olofsson to a one-year, $1.575 million contract.

Colorado added some much-needed offensive depth on Wednesday with the signing of Victor Olofsson on a one-year, $1.575 million contract. The 30-year-old right-winger had 15 goals and 29 points in 56 games with Vegas in 2024-25 after spending the previous six campaigns in with the Buffalo Sabres. He is expected to play a top-nine role in Colorado and should see some power-play time on the second unit, despite that unit rarely seeing the ice.

Olofsson (lower-body) is week-to-week.

Olofsson has missed the last two games due to a lower-body injury and will likely miss several more.

Pavel Dorofeyev has been the main benefactor in Olofsson's absence, finding himself on the top powerplay unit in Vegas.
