Islanders' Ilya Sorokin returns to practice, uncertain if he'll be ready for start of 2024-25 season | amNewYork
Briefly

I feel really good," Sorokin said. "We did a great job the last two months. I feel good mentally and physically. The procedure was the first surgery of the 29-year-old's career, and considering it is his back, it does provide some uncertainty even after the completion of the recovery process. "I found a new muscle in my body, he joked. It made for a big job for the staff I'm very happy [with them].
We're just going to go day by day, head coach Patrick Roy said. I can't say more than that because we don't know what tomorrow will be. I'd rather keep it day by day and see how he is. We're going to give him his time, no doubt about it.
I'm doing everything I can to be ready," he said. "If the head coach says I'm ready to play opening night, that's his business. My business is to do all the things [to get] my body and my head ready.
Everybody wants to be better, Sorokin said. If not, you can't be a professional player.
