Igor Shesterkin News

The Rangers are rolling, riding a four-game winning streak, mostly without the help of Shesterkin, who served as the backup netminder in all but the most recent victory. That said, the former Vezina-winner will attempt to build off his most recent performance when he saved 28 of 31 shots (.903 SV%) in a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks, his first quality start in his last five outings (2-2-1). The Rangers are -154 home favourites on Monday night against the Calgary Flames, who have outscored their opposition 15-6 during a four-game winning streak.

Shesterkin has not played since January 26th, including serving as the backup to Jonathan Quick in both games since the All-Star break. Shesterkin has struggled all season, including allowing three or more goals in three of his last four games (1-2-1), posting an ugly .846 SV%. The 28-year-old netminder will have a chance to redeem himself in a favourable matchup on Friday as the Rangers are sizeable -297 road favourites against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Shesterkin will return to the crease for the Rangers on Friday evening in a matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights. Shesterkin allowed three goals on 22 shots (.864 SV%) in a disappointing 3-2 overtime loss to the bottom-dwelling San Jose Sharks in his last outing. Shesterkin's reputation as an elite goaltender has not held up this season, especially lately, allowing four or more goals in four of his last nine games (4-4-1), posting an ugly .870 SV%. That said, the Rangers are -155 home favourites against a Golden Knights club with points in five straight (4-0-1).

Shesterkin will return to the crease on Tuesday in a favourable matchup against the San Jose Sharks.

After allowing nine goals in two games (0-2-0) and posting an abysmal .795 SV%, Shesterkin responded with a strong effort in his last outing, saving 24 of 25 shots (.960 SV%) in a 2-1 win over the Washington Capitals.

Shesterkin will be back between the pipes for the Rangers for the back-end of this weekend's home-and-home with the Capitals after Jonathan Quick got the nod in Saturday's 3-2 defeat. Shesterkin struggled his last time out, allowing four goals on just 19 shots as the Rangers fell to the Blues by a score of 5-2. The 2021-22 Vezina Trophy winner has endured a rocky season and has been particularly poor of late, posting a 1-3-0 record and an .828 SV% across his last four starts. He'll look to get back in the win column on Sunday with the Rangers being -250 favourites at home over the Capitals, who will be without Alex Ovechkin for the second straight game.

Shesterkin has followed up three of his last four quality starts by allowing three or more goals, including allowing five on 25 shots (.800 SV%) in a 6-3 loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday. The 2023-24 campaign has been inconsistent for the 2021-22 Vezina winner, as his .904 SV% and 2.85 GAA are well below his career-averaged .921 SV% and 2.44 GAA. Despite his unspectacular play, Shesterkin has managed a respectable 16-9-0 record for a Rangers club that sits first in the Metropolitan Division. The Rangers have lost two straight but are sizeable -161 road favourites against the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night.

Shesterkin had the night off on Saturday, a 4-3 loss to the Montreal Canadiens, but will return to the crease on Monday night against the high-flying Vancouver Canucks. Shesterkin has been inconsistent this season, highlighted by a recent stretch where he has impressively allowed two or fewer goals in five of his last eight games (6-2-0) but allowed six in two, settling for a .907 SV%. The Rangers are 6-3-1 in their last 10 and are -148 home favourites against a Canucks squad that has scored six or more goals in three of their last five games (3-2-0).
