Barzal now has nine points over his last five games.
Illya Sorokin was solid in the victory, stopping 32 shots. Sorokin (13-8-8, 3.19, .909) has a solid save percentage but the G AA is not great.

The 29th-best penalty killing in the NHL is not helping them (73.0%) and they are 19th in goals per game (3.07).
