Igor Shesterkin Set for Surgery

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin (knee) will require surgery and a lengthy rehab, according to The Athletic's Vince Z. Mercogliano. The Russian netminder has already been ruled out for the rest of the season after injuring his right knee Friday night against Washington. On Sunday, the Rangers placed Shesterkin on long-term Injured Reserve. Losing Shesterkin for the entire year is a tough pill to swallow for the Rangers, but Dylan Garand made a winning start to life as the team's de facto starter on Sunday. He recorded 19 saves in a 6-2 victory over Vancouver. While Garand's fantasy stock has skyrocketed, he remains largely unproven at this level.

Igor Shesterkin Ruled Out for Rest of Season

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin (knee) will miss the rest of the season, the team announced Saturday. The former Vezina Trophy winner injured his right knee on Friday night against Washington. This marks a horrible setback for the team and Shesterkin personally. He recently scored his first career goal and has looked very sharp early in the campaign, posting a 3-1-0 record. With Joonas Korpisalo (lower body) also out for at least four more weeks, the team must rely on Dylan Garand and Spencer Martin to get the job done in the crease.

Igor Shesterkin Suffers Lower-Body Injury Friday

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin sustained a lower-body injury in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Washington Capitals. He needed help getting off the ice after hurting his right leg in the second period. As he exited the ice, Shesterkin couldn't put any weight on his right leg, a sign of a potentially serious injury. Shesterkin stopped 13 of 14 SOG in Friday's game. He's had a great start to the season, going 3-1-0 with a 1.79 goals-against average and a .927 save percentage. The 2022 Vezina Trophy winner even scored a goal on Oct. 1 against Tampa Bay. If Shesterkin misses time, Dylan Garand will take over the crease, as Joonas Korpisalo (lower body) isn't available.

Igor Shesterkin Pots Empty-Netter in Big Win

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin had a special outing on Thursday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, becoming the first netminder in franchise history to score a goal. He wrapped up a 5-1 victory with an empty-netter. Overall, Shesterkin is the 18th goaltender to score in an NHL game. The 2022 Vezina Trophy winner also performed admirably in his regular duties, allowing only one goal on 25 SOG. Shesterkin has put in elite work year after year, and Thursday's goal already makes this season special for him. This game will also go into the history books as Shesterkin's 100th home win in the NHL.

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin stopped 29 of 31 shots on goal in Thursday's 6-2 victory against the Maple Leafs. The Rangers' netminder was beaten twice at even strength in the first and second period respectively, but he was at his best in the third period when the team scored four times to secure the win on home ice. Shesterkin is having a quality bounce-back season despite the team having a very disappointing campaign, as the former Vezina Trophy winner has posted a 2.50 goals against average and .912 save percentage to go with one shutout through 38 appearances.

Igor Shesterkin Available Thursday

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin (lower body) will be back in the net on Thursday night against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Russian netminder hasn't played since Jan. 5 due to a lower-body injury. Although the Rangers sit at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, Shesterkin has had a fine campaign. He has posted a 17-12-4 record across 34 starts, with a 2.45 goals-against average, a .913 save percentage, and one shutout. On Thursday, Shesterkin will go up against the league's 22nd-ranked offense, which has produced 2.86 goals per game.

Igor Shesterkin Exits With Lower-Body Injury Monday

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin (lower body) exited Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Utah Mammoth in the first period. The former Vezina Trophy winner couldn't carry on after being involved in a collision with Mammoth forward JJ Peterka. Shesterkin, who saved all nine shots he faced, was replaced in the crease by Jonathan Quick. While exiting the ice, he was unable to put weight on his left foot. Despite the Rangers' home struggles in 2025-26, Shesterkin maintains a solid 17-12-4 record. He has posted a 2.45 goals-against average, a .913 save percentage, and one shutout. Quick, who is 3-6-2 for the season, faces an increased workload if Shesterkin misses time.

Igor Shesterkin Collects 22nd Career Shutout

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin notched his 22nd career shutout in Thursday's 4-0 victory over the Buffalo Sabres. The Russian netminder finished with 37 saves, tied for his second most in a shutout performance. Following a mediocre campaign in 2024-25, Shesterkin has enjoyed a fantastic start to the season. He was forced to take a loss in the Rangers' season opener against the Pittsburgh Penguins but allowed only one goal in a 3-0 defeat. This means that Shesterkin's goals-against average stands at 0.50 for the season, and he boasts a superhuman save percentage of .985. Next up, Shesterkin and the Rangers face a rematch against the Penguins on Saturday night.

Igor Shesterkin Shuts Out Lightning With 27 Saves

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin ended the season on a high note, stopping all 27 shots he faced in Thursday's 4-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 2022 Vezina Trophy winner collected his sixth shutout of the season, matching his career high. Shesterkin will have at least something to celebrate from a frustrating season, which he concluded with a 27-29-5 record. He posted a career-worst 2.86 goals-against average and had a .905 save percentage, also his worst-ever mark in the NHL. The Rangers must build a better team around Shesterkin to fully benefit from his talents.

Igor Shesterkin Remains In Rangers Crease Sunday

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin is set to play for the second consecutive day on Sunday against the Edmonton Oilers. He produced his fifth shutout of the season in Saturday's 4-0 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Shesterkin also defeated the Minnesota Wild 3-2 in overtime on Thursday night, so he is in the midst of a very busy stretch and will make his third appearance in four days. Shesterkin has not won three consecutive starts since January when he had his season-best four-game winning streak. The 2022 Vezina Trophy winner boasts a 23-22-4 record for the season and has given up 2.79 goals with a .907 save percentage. Following a tough stretch, the Oilers are on a 3-2-0 run and are sure to present a stern test for Shesterkin on Sunday.

Igor Shesterkin Starting On Thursday

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin will get the starting nod on Thursday against the Minnesota Wild. Shesterkin allowed two goals on 24 shots during his last outing against the Winnipeg Jets. He will have another tough matchup against the Minnesota Wild who are also in the Western Conference playoff picture. Before his loss on Tuesday, Shesterkin held a 3-1-2 record over his last six contests with a .921 save percentage and a 2.32 GAA. During this span, he allowed one goal or less in two games but allowed three or more in the other four. Through 47 total games this season, the 29-year-old has had a disappointing season to his standard as he sits with a modest 21-22-4, a 2.87 GAA, and a .905 save percentage. He is a solid play in DFS as he still carries high upside despite a tough matchup.

Igor Shesterkin Starting On Wednesday

New York goaltender Igor Shesterkin was the first goaltender off during Wednesday's morning skate, which suggests he will likely take the starter's crease on Wednesday evening when the Rangers face the Washington Capitals. Shesterkin has begun to find his footing after a rough stretch during January and February. Over his last four starts, Shesterkin has held a 3-1 record with a .939 save percentage and a 1.77 GAA. He posted a 21-save shutout in his last outing against the New York Islanders. However, before this strong stretch, Shesterkin carried a poor .817 save percentage with a hefty 4.57 GAA. Overall, the 29-year-old is on pace to have the worst season of his career but remains a must-start goaltender in all standard formats. In addition, given his recent play, he is worth considering in DFS matchups, despite facing a potent Washington offense.

Igor Shesterkin Shuts The Door On Monday

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin stopped all 21 shots he saw against the New York Islanders on Monday evening. The Rangers had the slight advantage in the shot total but Shesterkin was able to step up when called on. Since allowing five goals on February 22, Shesterkin has gone 3-1 over his last four contests. During this stretch, he has held a strong .939 save percentage with a 1.77 GAA. He has only allowed more than two goals twice. However, prior to this recent surge, Shesterkin posted a hefty 3.45 GAA and a .865 save percentage over his last eight contests. Despite the uneven play at times, Shesterkin remains a must-start goaltender in all formats. He will look to stay hot on Wednesday evening when the Rangers host the Washington Capitals.

Igor Shesterkin Out For 1-2 Weeks With An Upper-Body Injury

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin will miss 1-2 weeks with an upper-body injury, Mollie Walker of The New York Post reports.

Based on the projected timeline, there's a good chance Shesterkin will be ready to return to action after the 4 Nations Face-Off. The Rangers are scheduled to continue the regular season on Feb. 22 against the Buffalo Sabres.

Shesterkin has gone 19-18-2 during an inconsistent campaign, allowing 2.86 goals with a .906 save percentage and three shutouts. He boasts a 2-0-0 record against Pittsburgh this season, having stopped 51 of 53 shots in the matchup.

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin stopped all 20 shots he faced en route to defeating the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday evening. The Rangers dominated the shot total, but Shesterkin was able to set up when called on. Alexis Lafreniere would break the stalemate late in the opening frame and serve as the game-winner. This was Shesterkin's third-straight victory and second-straight shutout. Over this three-game span, Shesterkin has posted a stellar .962% SV and a 0.97 GAA. Over his past six, Shesterkin has held a 5-0-1 record with a 1.43 GAA and a .943% SV. He remains a must-start option as he and the Rangers are beginning to turn the corner following a rough two-month stretch. He will look to stay hot on Thursday against the Philadelphia Flyers.
