Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Sees big workload in OT win
Sorokin made 38 saves on 41 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canadiens.
Sorokin faced his second-largest volume of shots this season Thursday and was able to survive a two-goal third period from the Canadiens. Additionally, Sorokin helped fuel New York's offensive efforts with his first two assists of the campaign on both of Bo Horvat's tallies. The 29-year-old Sorokin is up to a 27-20-5 record with a 2.72 GAA and a .907 save percentage. Thursday's performance marked his third win in a row and his seventh in his last 10 games. He ranks sixth across the league in victories and has a chance to meet the 30-win mark for the second time in his five-year career. He has great value in fantasy ahead of the playoffs due to the Islanders making a late-season push for a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference.
