Sorokin was perfect in his previous start, stopping 27 of 27 shots for his league-leading sixth shutout of the season as he blanked the Philadelphia Flyers' last game. The 27-year-old has been sensational this season, with his 30-21-7 record, 2.33 GAA and .925 SV%. He takes on the Washington Capitals, who have lost six straight and are 20th in the NHL in goals per game (3.06).
