Ilya Sorokin Injured Ahead of Training Camp

New York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin suffered an upper-body injury during offseason training, but general manager Lou Lamoriello does not expect it to impact his availability for the regular season. Sorokin may miss the first couple of days of training camp, yet he is already skating, which is a positive sign. Sorokin missed an informal veterans’ skate, fueling speculation about his health, but was seen without any visible injury aids at a charity event. Sorokin is looking to bounce back after a challenging season where he lost his starting position and struggled in the playoffs. The team has brought in Keith Kinkaid and Marcus Hogberg to compete for the third goaltender spot, preparing for any potential extended absence of Sorokin.
