Semyon Varlamov News
New York Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov posted his third shutout of the season with 41 saves in Saturday's 2-0 win over Nashville. The Russian veteran saw a lot of the puck but had a perfect game to improve to 11-6-4. Playing as Ilya Sorokin's backup, Varlamov has registered five wins across his last seven starts. His goals-against average for the season stands at 2.72, and Varlamov has posted a .916 save percentage. Sorokin has won each of his last two starts, so the Islanders goalies have heated up just at the right time. The team has climbed to third in the Metropolitan Division, with five games left to play.
New York Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov (lower body) is on target to return to action Thursday on the road versus the Montreal Canadiens. The veteran hasn't appeared since suffering his injury in the first period of a Jan. 2 overtime loss to the Colorado Avalanche, one of his former teams. It's been a rock-solid season for Varlamov, who owns a 2.78 goals-against average and a stellar .918 save percentage across 14 outings (13 starts), going 6-4-2 in the process. Additionally, his 6.12 goals saved above average ranks 13th of 67 qualified netminders, as per Hockey Reference. Ilya Sorokin has started all 10 games for the Isles during Varlamov's absence, while Ken Appleby was returned to the AHL when Varlamov was activated off Injured Reserve on Monday.
New York Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov has resumed skating as he works his way back from a lower-body injury, according to head coach Lane Lambert. The veteran left a Jan. 2 game against the Colorado Avalanche after just 14:52 due to the injury and has not appeared since. The ailment interrupted what has been a nice season for the 35-year-old who sports a 2.78 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage across 14 appearances (13 starts), going 6-4-2 in that time. His 6.03 goals saved above average ranks 17th of 68 qualified goaltenders, as per Hockey Reference. Not only has Ilya Sorokin started all seven games so far in Varlamov's absence, the Russian netminder has made 12 consecutive starts while backup Ken Appleby has yet to see any game action.
New York Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov couldn't finish Tuesday's game against Colorado, exiting the contest with an undisclosed injury in the first period. He stopped 11 of 12 shots in an eventual 5-4 overtime loss. The veteran netminder only recently missed a game with an unspecified injury. It was the 13th start of the year for the Russian, who has posted a 6-4-2 record behind Ilya Sorokin. Ken Appleby filled the backup duties last week in a game against Washington when Varlamov wasn't available. He'll likely be brought back into the mix if Varlamov has to miss time.
