New York Islanders goalie Ilya Sorokin is getting some healthy praise again and there’s no reason to think he won’t live up to the hype.
There are a number of reasons to look forward to the New York Islanders 2020-21 season. Seeing how they improve on a 2019-20 season that saw them progress to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 1993 is chief amongst those reasons.
