Ilya Sorokin has emerged as a legitimate trade target for the Edmonton Oilers after moving defenseman Noah Dobson, as they look to upgrade in goal this offseason. Sorokin is one of the NHL’s top goaltenders, and while acquiring him would come at a steep price, his ability to steal games could be exactly what the Oilers need to take the next step toward a Stanley Cup.
Today, Tyler and Liam discussed why Sorokin would be a perfect fit in Edmonton, what a potential trade could look like, and whether the Oilers should go all-in to finally solve their goaltending issues.
What would you trade for Sorokin?

God, i wish this would happen.
Dont play with me
YESSSSSSS For Nurse and 3 firsts. LFG
I like that package you proposed
There just getting my hopes up
Sucks nurses contract is so bad it’s impossible to get rid of.
He’s not coming here
Sorokin would be light years ahead of anyone we have right now.
Replace Dustin Schwartz.
With what pieces? The Habs just traded their 16th and 17th pick and a young player in Emil Heineman for Dobson. What can the Oilers really give for Sorokin?
Islanders would definitely want Savoie. That's the only piece that would have juice for a re-build team.
He would require Savoie, but that would be worth it.
Skinner is still a young goalie with two Stanley cup finals experiences. Oilers have better luck with skinner than trading him out. If you look back at the videos it was not a goaltender issue, it’s the team couldn’t get the puck out and turnovers
