Stuck with loss Monday Shesterkin stopped 22 of 25 shots in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Ducks, with Anaheim's fourth goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact The 29-year-old netminder has hit a tough stretch in December. Shesterkin has given up at least three goals in four straight starts, going 1-2-1 with a 3.21 GAA and .881 save percentage and getting little help at either end of the ice -- the erratic Rangers scored just three total goals in those three losses. Better days should be ahead for Shesterkin, but his 13-11-3 record on the season is once again dipping close to .500.

Facing Ducks Shesterkin will protect the home net against Anaheim on Monday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.

Impact Shesterkin made 13 saves in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over Montreal. He has surrendered 10 goals on 84 shots in his last three outings en route to a 1-1-1 record.

Sneaks by in win Shesterkin stopped 13 of 17 shots on goal in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Canadiens.

Impact Shesterkin had a brutal start to the game, as he allowed three goals across four minutes in the first period against a low volume of shots. From that point on, however, he gave up just one goal and made key saves down the stretch to help the Rangers complete a comeback in overtime. With the win, the 29-year-old goaltender is up to a 13-10-3 record with a 2.53 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 26 appearances this season. While he posted his second-worst save percentage of the season Saturday, the performance can be written off as a tough night. Shesterkin has done more than enough to cement himself as a must-roster goalie in all standard fantasy formats, and Saturday's performance doesn't change that. His next chance to bounce back is Monday against the Ducks.
