Ilya Sorokin Stands Tall On Tuesday

Sorokin's lone blemish came in the third period when Brandon Saad found the back of the net on a backhand. The Knights dominated the shot total, but Sorokin was able to lead the way. This outing extended Sorokin's winning streak to seven games. During this impressive streak, Sorokin has held a stellar .960% SV with a 1.16 GAA. Over his previous 10 games, Sorokin has held a 9-1 record with a .942% SVG and a 1.66 GAA. Across 38 games, the 29-year-old has held a 20-14-4 record with a .910 SV and a 2.58 GAA. Fantasy managers should expect Sorokin to get the starting nod again on Friday evening against the Winnipeg Jets.
