Ilya Sorokin extends win streak with 28-save performance
by Bruno Mulé | Islanders Correspondent | Sun, Feb 2nd 2:05pm EST
Sorokin stopped 28 of 30 shots in Saturday’s 3-2 overtime win against the Lightning, securing his sixth consecutive victory. The Islanders’ netminder has now won eight of his last nine appearances, allowing just six goals over his current six-game streak while also recording a shutout.
Fantasy Impact:
Sorokin is playing some of his best hockey of the season, keeping the Islanders in the playoff race. With his dominant stretch, he has firmly secured the starting job and should continue to see the majority of starts down the stretch. Fantasy managers can confidently deploy him as a high-end option, especially with New York pushing for a Wild Card spot.
