Sorokin stopped 23 shots. He made a save right before Steven Stamkos’ errant pass went into Nashville’s empty net with 12 seconds left.

ELMONT, N.Y. -- Ilya Sorokin was credited with the 20th goalie goal in NHL history and the New York Islanders defeated the Nashville Predators 7-4 at UBS Arena on Saturday.

New York Islanders netminder Ilya Sorokin became the third goalie this season to score a goal. It was an interesting play. The puck ripped off Sorokin’s pad, hit the boards, and trickled down to the empty Nashville net.
