Igor Shesterkin - NHL News & Rumors

Allows three goals in win Shesterkin allowed three goals on 24 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Canucks.

Impact Shesterkin gave up two goals in the first period and another in the second, but he shut the door in the third to get his fourth win in his last six outings. It wasn't a particularly strong start -- Shesterkin has given up three or more goals in four of his last seven appearances. He's now 8-4-1 with a 2.80 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 13 starts this season. Shesterkin's uneven performances could allow for a slightly larger workload for Jonathan Quick in the near term.

Starting against San Jose Shesterkin will serve as the starting goaltender for Thursday's home game against the Sharks, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

Impact Shesterkin has struggled over his last two outings, turning aside just 34 of 44 shots (.773 save percentage) en route to losses to the Sabres and Jets. He'll have a chance to right the ship against the Sharks, who have averaged 2.35 goals per game to begin the year, which ranks second-worst in the league.

Covered by contrails Shesterkin made 27 saves in a 6-3 loss to the Jets on Tuesday. He allowed five goals.

Impact Heading into the contest, Shesterkin was ahead of opponent Connor Hellebuyck in high-danger saves (73 vs 70) and also led him in midrange save percentage (.941 vs .899). But he was far behind in traditional counting stats like GAA (2.85 vs 1.92) and save percentage (.913 vs .934). Shesterkin played a solid game against the Jets, but his teammates coughed up the puck a couple of times and that was all the Jets needed to pounce. Unfortunately, he ends up in the record books as the goalie in net when the Jets became the fastest team to 15 wins in NHL history (16 games).

First off Tuesday Shesterkin was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, per Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today, indicating he will protect the home net Tuesday versus Winnipeg.

Impact During his last appearance, Shesterkin allowed five goals on 12 shots before being pulled in a 6-1 loss to Buffalo on Nov. 7. He has a 6-3-1 record with one shutout, a 2.62 GAA and a .920 save percentage across 10 starts. Winnipeg has lost once through 15 games (14-1-0) in 2024-25 and ranks first in the league with 4.47 goals per game.

Woeful in loss to Buffalo Shesterkin stopped seven of 12 shots before being pulled in the second period during Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Shesterkin was off to a great start, as had posted a 6-2-1 record with a 2.22 GAA and a sizzling .933 save percentage in nine appearances before this woeful outing. One bad appearance shouldn't change Shesterkin's status as one of the best goaltenders in the NHL over the first month of the season, though. While it will inflate his numbers, the 28-year-old should remain an elite option across all fantasy formats going forward.

Tending twine Sunday Shesterkin will patrol the home crease Sunday against the Islanders, per Colin Stephenson of Newsday.

Impact Shesterkin is coming off a 40-save performance in Friday's 2-1 win over Ottawa. He has a 5-2-1 record with one shutout, a 2.25 GAA and a .931 save percentage through eight appearances this season. The Islanders rank 31st in the league with 2.27 goals per game in 2024-25.

Stops 40 shots in win Shesterkin turned aside 40 of 41 shots in Friday's 2-1 win over the Senators.

Impact 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.
