New York Islanders Daily: Ilya Sorokin Tease

For many years the New York Islanders have been searching for that franchise changing goalie. Unfortunately, they haven’t had much luck finding a long-term solution between the pipes, which is one of the reasons they struggle to sustain success.

Since being selected in the third round of the 2014 draft, Sorokin has truly caught the attention of many in the know. This year, his fifth year with CSKA Moscow, he has an impressive .941 save percentage and a 1.19 goals against average.

At 23-years old, Sorokin is one of the best goalies in the KHL.
