4 years agoNew York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin will face the Buffalo Sabres in his 20th start of the season on Tuesday. The rookie from Russia has had a great campaign with a 12-6-1 record, but he's dropped three of his last four appearances. Sorokin boasts a 2.19 goals-against average for the year with a .918 save percentage and three shutouts. He's a perfect 3-0-0 against Buffalo, and surely the Islanders are amped up here after suffering a 4-2 shock defeat in the matchup Monday night. The team has taken back-to-back defeats just five times since February.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
