Sorokin gets shutout as Islanders blank Golden Knights

LAS VEGAS — Captain Anders Lee, playing in his 800th career game, scored a goal and Ilya Sorokin made 30 saves as the New York Islanders beat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-0 on Thursday night.

This was the Islanders' second shutout this season. The other occurred Nov. 30, same day as the Golden Knights were last blanked. This also was Sorokin's second shutout this season and 20th of his career.

Lee became the 10th player in franchise history to reach 800 games and the first to score a goal while hitting that milestone.

Brock Nelson had a goal and an assist, and Bo Horvat and Casey Cizikas also scored for the Islanders.
