Ilya Sorokin, Jean-Gabriel Pageau lead Isles' shutout of Flyers
Ilya Sorokin recorded his NHL-best sixth shutout as the Islanders scored shorthanded, on the power play, and at even strength to snap a two-game losing streak.
- On Monday, New York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin recorded his NHL-best sixth shutout as the New York Islanders won 4-0 over the Philadelphia Flyers at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
- After a Friday victory and two days off, the Philadelphia Flyers faced a sparse crowd impacted by a massive winter storm and allowed their fifth short-handed goal, hurting their momentum.
- On offense, Casey Cizikas' play set up Jean-Gabriel Pageau's short-handed opener early, Mathew Barzal tipped in Isaiah George's shot for his 12th goal, and Tony DeAngelo added a power-play goal.
- The outcome kept the Islanders in third place, as the win snapped their two-game skid and deepened the Flyers' six-game losing streak after a lost regulation win scenario.
- Sorokin earned his third shutout this month and his second in four starts, and the Islanders host Rangers Wednesday while the Flyers play Columbus Wednesday and Boston Thursday.
