Igor Shesterkin - Page 4 - NHL News & Rumors

Starting in Winnipeg Shesterkin was the first netminder off at Tuesday's morning skate, which indicates he'll tend the road twine against the Jets, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

Impact Shesterkin has conceded a total of seven goals over back-to-back overtime losses to the Capitals and Senators. He has a 21-21-4 record, .905 save percentage and 2.89 GAA across 46 outings this season. The Russian netminder will have an uphill battle getting back on track Tuesday against a Winnipeg squad that sits third in the NHL with 3.49 goals per game in 2024-25. Shesterkin is 4-3-0 with a .930 save percentage and a 2.32 GAA across seven career appearances against the Jets.

Falls to Sens in OT Shesterkin made 33 saves in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Senators.

Impact The Rangers were out-shot 37-23 on the afternoon but still held a 3-1 lead midway through the third period. Shesterkin couldn't make it hold up however, twice being unable to find loose pucks in his crease and seeing them get swatted home by an Ottawa player in the final 10 minutes of regulation. Brady Tkachuk then took advantage of a brutal Rangers giveaway in their own zone early in OT to end the contest. Shesterkin has just one regulation loss in his last six starts, going 3-1-2 over that stretch with a .921 save percentage.

Starting Saturday Shesterkin will defend the visiting crease in Ottawa on Saturday, according to Mollie Walker of the New York Post.

Impact Shesterkin is 3-1-1 in his last five starts, allowing 10 goals on 140 shots (.929 save percentage). Overall, the 29-year-old Russian netminder is 21-21-3 with four shutouts, a 2.86 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 45 starts this season. The Senators are averaging 2.84 goals per game this season, 19th in the NHL.

Topped by Caps in OT Shesterkin stopped 23 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals.

Impact The Rangers took a 2-1 lead into the third period, but Alex Ovechkin continued his march toward history midway through the frame to tie it up, and Tom Wilson then tapped home a slick feed from Dylan Strome in OT to end the night. Shesterkin has been sharp over his last five starts as New York tries to stay in the playoff picture, going 3-1-1 with a 1.99 GAA and .929 save percentage.

First goalie off Wednesday Shesterkin was the first goalie to leave the ice Wednesday, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home against Washington.

Impact Shesterkin has secured victories in three of his last four outings while posting a 1.77 GAA and one shutout. A slow start to the season will likely result in the 29-year-old netminder missing the 30-win mark for the first time since 2020-21, but he seems to be finding his stride of late. With a back-to-back against the Senators and Blue Jackets on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, Shesterkin figures to split the next two games with Jonathan Quick.

Blanks Isles for fourth shutout Shesterkin made 21 saves in Monday's 4-0 win over the Islanders.

Impact After watching Jonathan Quick blank the Predators on Sunday, Shesterkin decided not to get upstaged. It's the fourth shutout of the season for the 29-year-old netminder and the 19th of his career, and Shesterkin seems to have found a groove since a shaky first outing coming out of the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off. Over his last four starts, he's gone 3-1-0 with a 1.77 GAA and .939 save percentage.

Between pipes versus Isles Shesterkin will tend the twine at home against the Islanders on Monday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.

Impact Shesterkin may be hard-pressed to reach the 30-win mark at this point considering he has managed just 20 victories in his 43 appearances this year. At this point, the 29-year-old Russian is sporting a career-worst 2.93 GAA and .904 save percentage -- though those are still decent ratios compared to the rest of the league.

Poor performance in loss Shesterkin stopped 14 of 17 shots in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact Shesterkin went 3-4-0 in February, allowing three or more goals on five occasions. Friday's effort was a particularly poor one, as the Maple Leafs didn't generate much overall but cashed in a goal each period to get the win. Shesterkin is down to 20-21-2 with a 2.93 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 43 starts this season. The Rangers continue their four-game homestand Sunday versus the Predators, which would be a favorable matchup for Shesterkin should he get the nod, but it's also in the first half of a back-to-back. If Jonathan Quick instead gets the nod Sunday, Shesterkin would get another crack at the Islanders on Monday after defeating them with a 36-save effort Tuesday at UBS Arena.
