Sorokin earned his second shootout win of the week. The Islanders goaltender stopped two of three shots, making saves on Jake Guentzel and Nikita Kucherov.
That was Sorokin’s fifth straight win – and fifth in which he made at least 30 saves. He improved to 11-8-2 with a 2.53 GAA and .910 SV% this season.
“He’s been huge all year,” Anthony Duclair said after the 3-2 win. “He’s been backing us up and having our backs whenever there’s a breakdown in the d-zone.”
Travis Mitchell was the most recent Iron Man mask recipient before Sorokin.
