Under the Isles defensive system, he is going to post ridiculous numbers
Great. Another pissing match. We get it. Islanders have one of the smallest fanbases in sports. Rangers haven't won a Cup since 1994.
Let's move on.
And Ilya still fears Igor
He definitely should and it is not just the defensive system, but having a mix of talented and young defenders in Pulock, Pelech, Dobson, Toews, Mayfield, Leddy, etc. in front of him.
Think team D cause that's what Trotz focuses on... it's not just the actual Defenseman. The entire team plays a D first style and Trotz turned them around from one of the worse teams allowing goals to one of the best two seasons in a row now. Impressive.
Sorokin will not be exposed so he has a good shot at having great numbers. That 2nd year of $2M might be a steal.
An expensive backup.
It will be interesting what the next number will be if he does play as well as some hope or expect him to since Varly would still have 3 more years on his deal.I hate this comment so much.
Barry Trotz's Islanders use two goaltenders rather evenly during the regular season, 7M for TWO high end goaltenders is miles better than most teams' goaltending situation.

Lafrenière and Kaprizov is like McDavid and PanarinCalder trophy race is going to be stupid next year
True but Sorokin will already be 25 next month. He isnt extremely young or that far off himself.
Dang didnt realize that
True. I'm just saying he isnt much younger than MerzlikinsIn goalie years, they're teenagers!
Lamoriello loves his quality Goalies. Having a Goalie prospect this good over early to work with Korn and Greco, can't wait to see the results.

He’s also looked shaky his first 2 games.Saw he was just sent to the taxi squad. Weird year in the NHL this season for everyone and cant wait to see what he still eventually turns into
