Re: Sorokin locked up long term
Great deal but the Isles will wreck his career.
He is too good to be on this Islander team that will basically be stuck in medicrocy for a long-time.

Re: Sorokin locked up long term
Well yea, wrong word. I think he'll still perform nicely but I do not foresee the Isles going very far in playoff glory until they really change that culture of players.

Re: Sorokin locked up long term
I agree, but maybe they hope he can steal a few series in the playoffs. Still a big ask. I guess he's comfy on the Isle. The team defense is very good but most nights he can't let in more than 2 or they lose.

This is one of the better signings of the day.

Re: Sorokin locked up long term
the team is full of high end quality character players , no country club vibe going on .
like every other team , some players need to take that next step in order for the team to increase success . Wahlstrom , Romanov , Dobson get a little better next season maybe they flirt with 100 points
Re: Sorokin locked up long term
Best goalie on the planet IMO, and I think there will be no debate about this after 2023-24. The only thing strange to me is why they inked Varly for over $2M per season while doing this. Pretty expensive for a guy who figures to play 20-25 games and Sorokin doesn't exactly have a track record for getting hurt. I guess the Isles felt they might be needing every win they get so they wanted to sign one of the better back-ups and in doing so paid an inflated price. But for Sorokin it seems very likely this deal will look amazing in the very near future.

Re: Sorokin locked up long term
It wouldn't surprise me if Sorokin pushed for Varlamov to stay. He has been a big help to him integrating to life in North America on and off the ice.
