Shesterkin was solid in the Rangers' most recent game, saving 24 of 25 shots (.960 SV%), but their offensive woes continued, losing 2-0 to the New York Islanders for their league-worst eighth shutout loss of the season. That said, the 29-year-old Shesterkin has given them a chance on most nights, posting a 2.51 GAA and .910 SV% in 31 games this season (16-12-3). The Rangers enter Monday's contest as +156 road underdogs against a Carolina Hurricanes team that snapped a three-game losing skid with a 5-2 win on Saturday over the Detroit Red Wings.
