This is complete horsecrap. Until Lou took over, Sorokin had no interest in coming to the NHL under the previous regime, nor did he ever try and force the Isles to trade him. Now, with rumors swirling since last year that he was coming to the Island next season, he's suddenly trying to force a trade?? Makes literally no sense at all. Not to mention most speculate the reason Lou went after Varly (and let fan favorite Lehner walk) was to guarantee that Sorokin comes over.
As has been already mentioned, this seems more like a tactic to force the isles to burn his 1 ELC year, so he can sign a better deal as an RFA.
