Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Starting on Saturday

Sorokin will guard the road crease Saturday against the Rangers, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.

Sorokin was excellent in his last start, stopping 25 of 27 shots in a 4-2 win over Columbus on Thursday. The 28-year-old has seen his numbers drop a bit but has still been solid this season, recording a .907 save percentage and a 24-19-11 record in 54 appearances. He will have a tough matchup against the Rangers, who are 25-12-4 at home this year.
