Drafted in the 4th Round of 2014, Igor Shesterkin took his time before bringing his talents to the NHL's New York Rangers. But once he did, the impact was immediate. After two pandemic-shortened seasons, this was Shesterkin’s first full year in the league. Playing in 53 games, and allowing a meager 106 goals, Shesterkin proved to be every bit as talented as fellow countryman Andrei Vasilevskiy of Tampa Bay, the current gold standard in hockey netminding.
Shesterkin takes technical precision to a new level. He doesn’t flail and panic because he rarely needs to. Instead, he’s in the right place at the right moment, in almost every moment. He’s Rangers-quick going post-to-post, flexible to the point of absurdity, and capable of so many high stick saves that it must be intentional.
The future for Igor and his teammates is wide-open and promising. He’s just acclimated to the NHL and like the team in front of him, is only beginning to enter his prime. A Conn Smyth win in the near future seems at this point a fait accompli.
