GAME LOG

INJURIES

Rare off game Sorokin allowed four goals on 21 shots before being pulled in the second period of Saturday's 5-0 loss to Tampa Bay.
Impact It was a rare off game for the Isles' netminder. The Lightning broke the game open early in the second when Tanner Jeannot redirected a centering pass past Sorokin at 3:42. It pushed the score to 2-0. Nikita Kucherov scored on a breakaway at 9:57 and then Steven Stamkos made it 4-0 at 11:45 when a cross-ice pass redirected past Sorokin off the forward's skate. He'll rebound quickly and the Isles need that -- they lost ground in the wild card race Saturday. The Isles are in the first wild card spot, two points ahead of Panthers and three ahead of the Pens, who have one game in hand.

Stays hot with shootout win Sorokin made 25 saves in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout win over the Capitals.
Impact Sorokin limited the damage through overtime to a second-period Conor Sheary goal. He allowed Evgeny Kuznetsov to score in the first round of the shootout but stopped Washington's next two attempts to secure an important second point for the Islanders, who have built up a small cushion as the top wild card team in the East. Sorokin has led the playoff push with an 8-1-1 record in his last 10 starts.
MARCH 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Gets starting nod Wednesday Sorokin will be between the pipes on the road against the Capitals on Wednesday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
Impact Sorokin is coming off a 30-save victory over the Devils on Monday in which he conceded just one goal in a winning effort. The Russian netminder is undefeated in regulation in his last five outings with a 4-0-1 record. With a back-to-back versus Tampa Bay and Carolina on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, Sorokin will likely get another night off, something that has been rather rare for him of late.

Palmieri has 2 goals, assist as Islanders beat Devils 5-1

Kyle Palmieri had two goals and an assist, Ilya Sorokin made 30 saves and the New York Islanders beat the New Jersey Devils 5-1
MARCH 28, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
First goalie off Monday Sorokin was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus the Devils.
Impact Sorokin started nine of the team's last 11 contests in which he posted a 6-1-2 record and 2.43 GAA. With the Isles mired in a battle for a playoff spot, the 27-year-old backstop figures to see heavy usage down the stretch with Semyon Varlamov relegated to the No. 2 role.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Earns 30-save victory Sorokin saved 30 of 31 shots in a 5-1 victory over New Jersey on Monday.
Impact Sorokin bounced back nicely after surrendering five goals on 27 shots in a 5-4 overtime loss to Columbus on Friday. Through 55 appearances in 2022-23, he has a 27-19-7 record, 2.37 GAA and .924 save percentage. The Islanders are still battling to secure their playoff spot, so they will likely continue to lean on Sorokin, but it wouldn't be surprising if Semyon Varlamov starts either Saturday against Tampa Bay or Sunday versus Carolina.

Jenner's OT goal lifts Blue Jackets over Islanders 5-4

Boone Jenner scored 40 seconds into overtime and the Columbus Blue Jackets rallied to beat the New York Islanders 5-4 for their second straight win
MARCH 25, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tough night in Columbus Sorokin turned aside 22 shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Facing the team with the worst record in the NHL, the Islanders may have taken the game lightly and didn't give Sorokin much help in the second period as the Jackets scored four times. The netminder still has only one regulation loss in his last nine starts, going 6-1-2 with a .914 save percentage over that stretch as New York tries to lock up a playoff spot.

Gets starting nod Tuesday Sorokin will be between the home pipes versus Toronto on Tuesday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
Impact Sorokin has secured victories in five of his last six appearances while sporting a 2.35 GAA and a .919 save percentage. With 25 wins and five shutouts in 2022-23, the 27-year-old netminder could surpass personal bests in both categories if he continues to perform to this level over the final weeks of the regular season. The Islanders are set to play in back-to-back games against Columbus and Buffalo on Friday and Saturday, respectively, and Sorokin figures to split the pair of contests with Semyon Varlamov.

Jean-Gabriel Pageau had a goal and an assist, Ilya Sorokin stopped 29 shots for his 25th win of the season, and the New York Islanders beat the San Jose Sharks 4-1
MARCH 19, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Strong in Saturday's win Sorokin stopped 29 of 30 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Sharks.
Impact Sorokin has won five of his last six starts, yielding 14 goals over that span. Outside of Kevin Labanc's opening tally in the first period, Sorokin didn't face much of a challenge Saturday. The 27-year-old is up to 25-19-6 with a 2.37 GAA and a .924 save percentage through 52 appearances this season. The Islanders' next game is at home versus the Maple Leafs on Tuesday.

Going back-to-back Sorokin will guard the road goal in Anaheim on Wednesday, Stefen Rosner of NYIHockeyNow.com reports.
Impact Sorokin will start on back-to-back nights despite getting tagged for four goals on 36 shots Tuesday versus the Kings. The 27-year-old has won six of his last nine outings, and the Islanders clearly want their top goalie between the pipes as much as possible as they battle for a playoff spot.
MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bounces back Wednesday Sorokin stopped 20 of 23 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Ducks.
Impact Sorokin struggled in a loss to the Kings on Tuesday, but he was better against a lesser foe in the Ducks. The 27-year-old has been a bit leaky lately, allowing 10 goals over his last three games. He's now at 24-19-6 with a 2.40 GAA and a .924 save percentage through 51 appearances. It wouldn't be surprising to see him start against San Jose on Saturday.
MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Set to face Kings Sorokin will defend the road net Tuesday against Los Angeles, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.
Impact Sorokin has won his past three outings, including a 33-save performance in last Thursday's 4-3 overtime victory over Pittsburgh. He has a 23-18-6 record this season with a 2.35 GAA and a .926 save percentage. The Kings rank 11th in the league this year with 3.31 goals per game.

Nelson's OT goal lifts Islanders to 4-3 win over Penguins

Brock Nelson scored on a breakaway in overtime and the New York Islanders rallied to defeat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3
MARCH 10, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Starting in Pittsburgh Per Stefen Rosner of NYI Hockey Now, Sorokin was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, putting him on track to guard the road goal versus the Penguins on Thursday.
Impact Sorokin has played well recently, picking up back-to-back wins over the Red Wings and the Sabres while posting an admirable 1.51 GAA and .936 save percentage. He'll try to secure his 23rd victory of the season in a road matchup with a Pittsburgh team that's 17-9-4 at home this year.
MARCH 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Key driver in team's success Sorokin made 33 saves Thursday in a 4-3 overtime win over the Penguins.
Impact The Pens went up 3-1 by the midpoint of the game, but Sorokin didn't have a chance on two of the three goals. Jake Guentzel tipped a point shot and Jason Zucker wristed a shot from the slot, both in the first period. Josh Archibald was awarded a goal when a point shot went in off his glove. Sorokin has won three straight and is 6-1-1 in his last eight starts, and has been a key driver in the team's climb into a wild card spot.
