• Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Stops 40 shots in win

  Shesterkin turned aside 40 of 41 shots in Friday's 2-1 win over the Senators. The Senators played an excellent road game, but Shesterkin was simply better. He put an end to his two-game skid with his second straight game of 40 or more saves. While that's a concern for the Rangers' defense, few goalies are as well-equipped to handle a heavy workload. Shesterkin improved to 5-2-1 with a 2.25 GAA and a .931 save percentage over eight starts this season. The Rangers' next game is Sunday versus the low-scoring Islanders, which would be an incredibly favorable matchup for Shesterkin if he gets the start.

  Shesterkin stopped 41 of 45 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Capitals. The fifth goal was an empty-netter. The Capitals had three goals within the first 10 minutes of the game. Shesterkin settled in after that, but the one-way traffic at the Rangers' zone hindered the comeback effort. The 28-year-old has taken consecutive losses for the first time this season, and this was just the second time he allowed more than three goals. He's now 4-2-1 with a 2.43 GAA and a .923 save percentage over seven starts. The Rangers return home for the next three games, beginning with Friday's matchup against the Senators.
