    In three starts, Sorokin went 3-0-0, with a 1.33 GAA and a .960 SV%, which includes a 32-save shutout against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday, a 2-0 win:

    This is the second time Sorokin has won the award, last doing so the week of Feb. 1, 2025.

    Ironically, he posted a 3-0-0 record with a 1.33 GAA. The difference was a .953 SV%.
