really good deal, similar to what Demko got, i suspect though that lack of experience/resume would have dropped the cap hit a bit as well as the term. still, solid deal

Looking at what Shesterkin got, this is an awesome deal for the Isles. Sorokin can set himself up for a big contract once this one is done as well.

This is the best contract of the four, even though it's quite a bit for someone with less than 30 NHL games.

In comparison to other deals handed out, this better.

But overall, for goalie that has only played approximately 20 games in the regular season and 7 playoff... this is not good either.

They got a good amount of term on this contract. W for the Islanders.

I feel like this could have been at a lesser cap hit considering they still have Varlamov as the primary starter and he gets into UFA after. It looks good on paper, but to be paying your back up 4 per year isn't good.

That being said I feel like he's probably better than Varlamov now and that he plays above this cap hit going into the deal.
