It’s probably Igor but I voted Demko bc I don’t want the Rangers to have another dominant goalie for 15 years

 

[Regal]

Just because of the OP I vote Markstrom

 

[M2Beezy]

Demko AINEC, never even heard of the other guy

When it’s this close you always go with the player whose name you can spell. Especially if you plan on buying a jersey. Demko.

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Rock and a hard place for me. Like Regal up above I’d vote for demko even if he is 1000x worse than Shesterkin due to the OP factor, the other one is a Canuck.

Tough choice so I choose seppuku.

Not much lmao, NYR homer.

Most people are homers, I’m asking people’s opinion on who’s better? Why do homer votes and tarnish the credibility

I don't want to go off topic, it’s a good, thought out poll.

Just put them on ignore. That’s what I do. Who cares what the haters say?

To answer the question, I’m a fan of Demko, but these aren’t two similar tier players.

Oh God, I think he's serious...

I think that's why people aren't taking the poll too seriously. A Rangers fan who lives in Vancouver and is highly critical of their current starter is making a poll comparing a clearly different tier Ranger goalie to a Canucks one.

Shesterkin certainly has the higher pedigree and looks like he'll be better - but goalies are never a guarantee at the NHL level. This is a guy who had a hot streak of 10 games this season. Let's wait and see.

That says more about you, pal.

Kind of an embarrassing post actually.

In regards to the poll, it's Igor. I accidentally voted Demko though.

Yeah, it's Shestyorkin by a country mile.

 

[Tad Mikowsky]

Demko put up a .919 save percentage in 2013-14, in not your favorite league so how could it be not him

 

[Machinehead]

Morbidly curious what led to this

 

[hamzarocks]

Shestorkin AINEC. One will be a top 5 goalie yearly and the other an freddy Andersen level goalie

 

[EdJovanovski]

Morbidly curious what led to this

An argument with a drunk uncle of course

 

[Love]

Demko easily

 

[Voight]

Demko.... much larger sample size. 3x as many GP, including an outstanding 4 games in the playoffs.

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

The name is spelt Shestyorkin!

 

[OKR]

The name is spelt Shestyorkin!

Or Igor Šestjorkin
Or Игорь Шестёркин
