Sorokin was the first goalie to exit the ice Tuesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home against the Caps.

Sorokin is coming off a 25-save shutout victory over the Devils on Sunday, his fourth shutout of the year. If the 29-year-old backstop can secure a victory versus Washington, he will match his career high of 31 wins from back in 2022-23 and could set a new personal best if he also gets the nod against the Jackets on the road Thursday.
