Igor Shesterkin Good To Go Saturday
1 min agoNew York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin (upper body) has been confirmed as the starter for Saturday's matchup against the Buffalo Sabres. Shesterkin sustained an upper-body injury on Feb. 7, but he ended up missing only one game due to the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The Rangers No. 1 has struggled lately, losing four of his past five starts. This has dropped his record for the season to 18-19-2. He has posted a 2.87 goals-against average with a .906 save percentage and three shutouts. On Saturday, Shesterkin faces a tricky matchup, as the Sabres have gone 4-1-0 in their past five games, averaging 4.4 goals during that stretch.
