With a 1.50GAA and a 0.936SV% this season, New York Islanders goalie prospect Ilya Sorokin is having yet another remarkable season with CSKA Moscow. Because of that it's easy to see why the Islanders want him over here as soon as possible. With his KHL contract set to expire at the end of the season, he could be here as early as next season.
But a note from Sportsnet's Elliotte Freidman in his weekly 31 thoughts column indicated that Sorokin might be looking to force a trade away from the New York Islanders.
