"Ilya Sorokin continues to separate himself not only from his peers, but from the entire history of the franchise. With 29 career shutouts, Sorokin already owns the most by any NHL goaltender since his debut in 2020-21."
"This season has only strengthened his case. Sorokin leads the NHL in shutouts and has tied the Islanders' single-season record with seven, matching marks set by Semyon Varlamov and Chico Resch."
"Among goaltenders with at least 25 career shutouts, Sorokin ranks fifth all-time in shutouts per games played (9.8%), trailing only legends like Roman Cechmanek, Ken Dryden, Dominik Hasek, and Martin Brodeur."
"The most remarkable part? He's just getting started. He's only 30, signed long-term, and at 29 shutouts and counting, Sorokin is on pace to own virtually every meaningful record."
