Shesterkin essentially issued what could be considered a warning to the rest of the NHL.
Shesterkin went from a 2.07 goals-against average and a .935 save percentage last season to a 2.48 GAA and a .916 save percentage this season. Sure, the drop-off is glaring, but part of that was also how the Rangers skated in front of him from last season to this season.
The most positive takeaway from the Rangers’ first-round loss is probably the fact that Shesterkin was their best player when they needed him to be.
