Ilya Sorokin Slated for Historic Franchise Appearance Saturday vs. Devils

Ilya Sorokin will guard the home net against New Jersey on Saturday, taking sole possession of second place for the most goaltender appearances in Islanders history behind Billy Smith. Through 10 starts in the 2026-27 campaign, the 31-year-old netminder has compiled a 6-4-0 record alongside a 2.41 GAA, one shutout, and a .911 save percentage. He takes on a tough Devils squad while continuing his run as a top NHL starter.
