The New York Islanders wrap up their preseason schedule on Saturday night, as they host the New York Rangers at Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport.
Saturday marks the fifth game of the Islanders preseason, after Thursday's exhibition tilt in New Jersey was cancelled due to a partial power outage at Prudential Center. The Islanders are 3-0-1 in the preseason, while the Rangers are 3-2-0. The Islanders shut out the Rangers 4-0 in both team's preseason opener on Sept. 26.

With one final tune-up before the regular season, the Islanders are expected to ice a lineup that resembes the opening night roster, as Head Coach Barry Trotz has said he wants to give most of his group at least one chance to play together before the real thing.
Ilya Sorokin was slated to play a full game on Thursday night, so he's likely to see a full game on Saturday. Sorokin has kept a clean sheet in preseason, stopping 13 shots in a half game against the Rangers and 11 more in a half game against the Philadelphia Flyers.
