Shesterkin will start against the Devils on Tuesday.

The Rangers have had a terribly disappointing and inconsistent season, but Shesterkin has remained reliable between the pipes. The 30-year-old goalie was excellent in his most recent outing, saving 26 of 27 shots (.963 SV%) in a 3-1 win over the Florida Panthers. He has a 2.80 GAA and .909 SV% in his last 11 games (6-4-1). The Rangers enter Tuesday's contest as +106 home underdogs against a surging New Jersey Devils team that has scored four or more goals in seven of its last nine games (6-3-0).

Shesterkin will start in Toronto on Wednesday.

Shesterkin was excellent in New York's previous outing, saving 31 of 33 shots (.939 SV%), but received very little goal support in a game where his team only managed 10 shots on goal in a 2-1 loss to the Ottawa Senators. The 30-year-old Shesterkin has a serviceable 2.88 GAA and .912 SV% in nine games since returning from the Olympic break. The Rangers enter Wednesday's contest as -119 road favourites against a Toronto Maple Leafs team that played last night and won 4-2 over the Boston Bruins.

Shesterkin will start vs. Ottawa on Monday.

After losing 3-2 in a shootout to the Winnipeg Jets yesterday, extending New York's losing streak to four games (0-3-1), the Rangers will turn to Shesterkin on Monday against the Ottawa Senators. The 30-year-old Shesterkin is coming off a forgetful performance, allowing five goals on 36 shots (.861 SV%) in a 6-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. That said, he has been serviceable since returning from the Olympic break, posting a 2.97 GAA and .906 SV% in nine games (5-2-2). The Rangers enter Monday's contest as +166 home underdogs against a Senators team that is 4-1-0 in its last five games.

Shesterkin will start in Columbus on Thursday.

Shesterkin did not play in last night's 6-3 loss to the New Jersey Devils and will hope to solidify their crease on Thursday when he tends the twine against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 30-year-old Sehsterkin allowed three goals on 25 shots (.880 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 4-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings. That said, Shesterkin has been solid since returning from the Olympic break, posting a 2.72 GAA and .913 SV% in eight games (5-1-2). The Rangers enter Thursday's contest as +185 road underdogs against a red-hot Blue Jackets team that has points in 10 straight games (6-0-4) as they desperately continue their battle to return to the postseason.

Shesterkin will start against the Kings on Monday.

Although not officially eliminated from playoff contention, the Rangers sit at the bottom of the Eastern Conference and are playing their best hockey of the season. The 36-year-old Shesterkin has spearheaded the team's recent efforts, including a dazzling 46-save performance (.958 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 4-2 win over the powerhouse Minnesota Wild. Shesterkin has a 2.67 GAA and .917 SV% in seven games (5-0-2) since returning from the Olympic break. The Rangers enter Monday's contest as slight +101 home underdogs against a Los Angeles Kings team that has lost three of its last five (2-2-1), but continues to desperately battle for a playoff spot.

Shesterkin will start in Winnipeg on Thursday.

The Rangers seem to have a firm hold on last place in the Eastern Conference (26-30-8), despite the solid netminding they have received from Igor Shesterkin (20-12-6). The 30-year-old Shesterkin has given his team a chance on most nights and has continued that consistency since returning from the Olympic break, posting a 2.73 GAA and .908 SV% in five games (3-0-2). The Rangers enter Thursday's contest as +133 road underdogs against a Winnipeg Jets team coming off a 4-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks.

Shesterkin will start in Philadelphia on Monday.

The Rangers seem to have a firm hold on last place in the Eastern Conference (24-30-8), which does not reflect the netminding they have received from Igor Shesterkin (19-12-6). The 30-year-old Shesterkin has given his team a chance on most nights and has continued that consistency since returning from the Olympic break, posting a 2.91 GAA and .899 SV% in four games (2-0-2). The Rangers enter Monday's contest as +125 road underdogs against a Philadelphia Flyers team that is 4-1-0 in its last five games.

Shesterkin will start vs. Toronto on Thursday.

Shesterkin is coming off one of his worst outings of the season, allowing five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. It marked the first time that Shesterkin has allowed more than four goals in a game since October. That said, before his most recent blip, the 30-year-old Shesterkin remained a reliable presence for an otherwise disappointing and inconsistent Rangers team, posting a stellar 2.12 GAA and .929 SV% in his previous nine appearances (5-1-2). The Rangers enter Thursday's contest as -128 home favourites against a reeling Toronto Maple Leafs team that suffered a 4-3 shootout loss to the New Jersey Devils last night to extend their post-Olympic losing streak to five games (0-3-2).

Shesterkin will start vs. Columbus on Monday.

After nearly two months without playing a game, due to a lower-body injury and the Olympic break, Shesterkin hasn't missed a beat, posting a solid 2.37 GAA and .912 SV% in two games (1-0-1). The Rangers have had a disappointing season, but Shesterkin has remained reliable, posting a 2.38 GAA and .917 SV% in his last 19 appearances since mid-December (11-4-3). Still, the Rangers enter Monday's contest as slight +107 home underdogs against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has followed up a seven-game winning streak with two straight losses (0-1-1).

Shesterkin will return and start vs. Philadelphia on Thursday.

Shesterkin was sidelined for a month heading into the Olympic break due to a lower-body injury, but he will return to the crease when the Rangers return to action on Thursday against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Rangers struggled without Shesterkin, going 2-11-1, and will be eager to have him back between the pipes. The 30-year-old goalie played his most consistent hockey of the season before his injury, winning four of six (4-1-1) while posting a 2.04 GAA and .934 SV%. The Rangers enter Thursday's contest as -132 home favourites against a Flyers team they defeated 6-3 in their previous meeting.
