Hanks greatest asset will always be his longevity, hopefully we will be able to say the same about Igor.

Well after Kravtsov of course

Guy looks locked in positionally and on high shots, giving some juice rebounds on low ones though, M I think he can try to use his stick instead of his pads a bit more to control the rebounds, but I’ll take that trade off any day
No Ranger fan should doubt this guy. Mentally just as good as he is physically.

glad we have him locked up long term. He’s becoming the true backbone of the team and is giving us Hank-esque performances. The talent is obviously there, we just have to worry about consistency and health

The people who soured on him must be feelin dumb! Shesterkin is living up to the hype. Best goalie in the KHL, to best goalie in the AHL; and now the best goalie in the NHL.
.953% 1.47 GAA
Best numbers of any goalie with over 90 shots against. He’s faced 128, which is the third most in the league.
The only goalies with slightly better numbers are backups/have faced significantly less shots, etc.

We have to be one of the luckiest franchise in the league to go from the best Goalie of his generation to another guy with potential to be that
KevinFinnerty
I bomb atomically...
He’s insanely talented and top 5 in the league. Vasy is still better and Fleury just won the Vezina, but he is making a case for one of the best, I just want him to be a workhorse and hope he’s not fragile. No more injuries Shesty!

Biased Rangers Fan
this man has a chance to be better than hank - we are so spoild

Hey Moddds can we PLEASE consider changing the title of this thread to 'Igor F*ckin' Shesterkin' or possibly 'Shesty 3:16' ?
As a long (very long) fan, I would say that the one of the things that defines this franchise is our tradition of great goalies (I have seen them all): from Gumper, to Eddie, to JD (briefly) to Beezer to Richter, to Hank, and now to Igor. Hopefully, he will remain healthy and lead us to another Cup.

Listening to Vally explain the push off and how the pads are different was pretty cool.
He is making these lateral cross crease saves look a lot easier than they are. He is so calm, collected and compact.
I marvel at his composure and focus in the net, he doesn’t get rattled no matter what’s going on around him and he anticipates everything so smoothly, conserving energy.
It almost looks slow and methodical, but in actuality it’s lightning quick. Awesome to watch
He is playing at a Vezina level right now and I have no qualms in saying that.

@ OTT on Saturday - Can't lose momentum, but I can see them going Georgiev to get him a game against a "lesser" team. Don't do it. You would be crazy not to Start Igor.
1 day off
CGY on Monday - Start Igor with 3 days rest after.
3 days off
CBJ next Friday - Start Igor
1 day off
@ SEA on Sunday - Start Igor
1 day off
@ VAN on Tuesday - Start Igor, 2 days rest after
2 days off
Back to back @ EDM & CGY - Georgiev will get one of these games, no doubt. I'd start him against Calgary. It should be the only game he gets in this set, giving Igor two days rest for FLA.

It's that simple. You can give Georgiev a start here and there but not when Shesty looks like this and has enough time off
It's borderline asinine to not play one of your best players as much as possible. He's been by far our best player to start the year.

Oh joy, you found your new love interest.
Thankfully the 3.16 is not for his GAA.

LOL you’ll find posts of mine speaking of him like that back to when he was on the KHL! I was always super high on Shesterkin. He would probably be a much more stable love interest though, not a fling like Krav

He’s been lights out recently. Definietly not losing sleep over his contract
His movement in the net is amazing. Idk how many goalies can do this...go post to post to top of the crease that fast and efficiently while not sliding out of position or losing their balance. He's an amazing athlete and skater
