Ilya Sorokin Earns Third Consecutive Victory
4 years agoNew York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin registered his third straight win as his team defeated the Buffalo Sabres 5-2 on Thursday night. Coming into the game with two straight shutouts, Sorokin got plenty of offensive support in this one and turned aside 16 of 18 shots against. Given his strong numbers in limited action (2.16 goals-against average, .909 save percentage), the 25-year-old is certainly a candidate to draw more starts this month (just two starts in February). His fantasy ownership (34% rostered in Yahoo! leagues) is climbing fast so fantasy owners will likely need to pull the trigger and add Sorokin before it's too late.
