Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Puts in good battle in loss
Shesterkin stopped 29 of 33 shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche. The last two goals were empty-netters.
Shesterkin gave the Rangers a solid effort, but Nathan MacKinnon's second goal of the game, at 10:48 of the third period, was the difference. With at least three goals allowed in five of his last six outings, Shesterkin is a bit lucky to be 3-3-0 in that span. For the season, he slipped to 7-8-2 with a 2.52 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 17 contests. The Rangers wrap up their three-game road trip Saturday in Utah.

Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Wins third straight start
Shesterkin stopped 24 of 25 shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over the Blue Jackets.
Shesterkin allowed just one power-play goal in regulation before making two crucial saves in the shootout to help the Rangers win their third straight contest. Overall, the 29-year-old goaltender has a 7-6-2 record with a 2.39 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 15 appearances this year. Saturday was his first time allowing one goal or fewer since Oct. 14, which capped a four-start stretch in which he allowed three total goals. With the Rangers playing back-to-back games in the weekend slate, Jonathan Quick will likely provide relief for Shesterkin against the Red Wings on Sunday after Shesterkin started the past four games. Shesterkin's next start will likely come Tuesday against the Golden Knights.

Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Surrenders four goals
Shesterkin stopped 21 of 25 shots on net in Saturday's 5-0 loss to the Islanders.
Shesterkin started each period strong, keeping the net tidy inside the first 10 minutes of each frame. However, the Islanders' offense kicked into gear in the second half of each period, scoring on Shesterkin at least once each time out. The 29-year-old goaltender now has a 4-6-2 record with a 2.41 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 12 appearances this year. After posting a 1.17 GAA and a .957 save percentage through his first six appearances, Shesterkin has struggled to a 3.64 GAA and an .862 save percentage over his last six starts. The Rangers have been shut out in each of his last two starts, so his poor recent results are due at least in part to the struggles of the skaters in front of Shesterkin. His next chance to get back on track is Monday against Nashville.

Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Gets no help in Tuesday's loss
Shesterkin stopped 29 of 31 shots in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to the Hurricanes, with Carolina's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
It was another strong effort from Shesterkin that went unrewarded due to the Rangers' offensive struggles. The 29-year-old netminder has allowed two goals or fewer in eight of 11 starts to begin the season en route to a 2.26 GAA and .915 save percentage, but he's just 3-4-1 in those outings.

Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Between pipes versus Canes
Shesterkin will tend the twine for Tuesday's home tilt against Carolina, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.
Shesterkin has conceded three or more goals in three of his last four outings while posting a 2-1-1 record and a 3.88 GAA. Despite his solid 2.28 GAA through 10 appearances this season, the 29-year-old netminder is 4-4-2 to open the year. Considering SHesterkin has reached the 50-game mark in each of his last four seasons, including featuring in a career-high 61 regular-season contests last year, fantasy managers should expect the Russian to continue starting most of the Rangers' contests.

Shesterkin stopped 11 of 13 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
The Rangers played a structured game, giving the Kraken little room to generate. Shesterkin wasn't at his best, but he was good enough to pick up his second consecutive win while facing a season-low workload. The 29-year-old improved to 4-4-2 with a 2.28 GAA and a .913 save percentage through 10 starts. The Rangers won three of four games on their road trip, but still generated just nine goals in that span.

The Oilers led 3-1 in the middle of the second period, but the Rangers tied it up in the third and won on a J.T. Miller goal in overtime. Getting some support had to look like an oasis in a desert for Shesterkin, who has received one goal or less of help from his teammates in five of his nine outings. He ended an 0-3-2 skid with this win, improving to 3-4-2 with a 2.32 GAA and a .916 save percentage this season. The Rangers wrap up their road trip in Seattle on Saturday.

Rangers' Igor Shesterkin: Let down by teammates again
Shesterkin allowed five goals on 30 shots in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Flames.
Shesterkin was let down by his teammates again, with odd bounces and screens leading to three goals and a shorthanded rush by the Flames accounting for another one. Overall, the Rangers' defensive play remains unorganized, and the offense hasn't done enough to overcome those lapses yet. It's starting to wear on Shesterkin's numbers -- he's allowed 11 goals on 54 shots over his last two outings to firmly non-playoff teams in the Sharks and the Flames. He's at a 2-4-2 record on the year but still has a strong 2.25 GAA and .916 save percentage through eight starts. The Rangers' next game is in Vancouver on Tuesday.
