Sorokin will start Sunday's matinee against Tampa Bay, Brian Compton of NHL.com reports.
Facing the two-time defending Stanley Cup champs is rarely easy, but Sorokin's catching the Lightning at the right time, as Tampa Bay comes in having dropped six of its last nine games in regulation while mustering more than two goals only once in its last eight. Meanwhile, Sorokin has been locked in of late, winning five of his last six starts while holding the opposition to only nine goals over that span.
