Sorokin will start Tuesday vs. the Senators.

Sorokin allowed six goals on 34 shots (.824 SV%) in what was one of his worst starts of the season as he was downed by the Vancouver Canucks last game. The 27-year-old has been a wall all year, yet still has only a 17-17-4 record, despite his incredibly impressive 2.41 GAA and .923 SV%. He takes on the Ottawa Senators, who have won five of their last six games after a 4-3 overtime victory over Calgary on Monday.
