New York Rangers News

The Rangers have stumbled through the 2025-26 season, off to a mediocre 12-11-2 start, but have won two straight and will turn to Shesterkin to tend the twine on Friday against the Boston Bruins. The 29-year-old Shesterkin was excellent in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes, saving 36 of 38 shots (.947 SV%). He has a 2.47 GAA and .911 SV% in 19 games this season (9-8-2). The Rangers enter the action on Friday as -135 road favorites against a Bruins team that has scored three or fewer goals in seven straight games (3-4-0).

Parssinen appeared in 14 games with the Rangers this season, scoring three points (2G / 1A), but failed to make a lasting impact and was ultimately placed on waivers. The 24-year-old Parssinen had a surprising rookie season with the Nashville Predators in 2022-23, scoring an impressive 25 points (6G / 19A) in 45 games, but has not maintained that success in three seasons since, scoring only 31 points (16G / 15A) in 105 games.

Durzi has not played since the second game of the season, recovering from an upper-body injury, but will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Montreal Canadiens. The 27-year-old Durzi was solid in limited action with Utah last season, scoring 11 points (4G / 7A) in 30 games. Dmitri Simashev will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Durzi's return.

Miller did not play in New York's most recent game due to an upper-body injury and could miss a second consecutive contest on Wednesday against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 32-year-old Miller is averaging 20:41 time-on-ice, over three minutes more than his career average (17:35), but has struggled immensely in the offensive department this season, scoring only 12 points (6G / 6A) in 22 games despite being well-above a point-per-game player in his last five seasons.

Shesterkin was already seeing a heavy workload, but with Jonathan Quick (lower body) on IR, expect him to see nearly all of the action until Quick returns. The 29-year-old Shesterkin has been inconsistent this season, mirroring the Rangers' team game, but was serviceable in his most recent outing, saving 19 of 21 shots (.905 SV%) in a 3-2 win over the St. Louis Blues. He has a 2.50 GAA and .909 SV% in 18 games this season (8-8-2). The Rangers enter Wednesday's contest as +165 road underdogs against a Hurricanes team that defeated them 3-0 earlier this month.

Iorio was recently sent to the AHL for a conditioning loan, where has has seven points (0G / 7A) in six games with the San Jose Barracuda. The 23-year-old defenseman was drafted 55th overall by the Washington Capitals in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and is still working on becoming a full-time NHLer with the Sharks.

The Rangers look to snap a four-game losing streak on Monday, hoping Shesterkin can re-find his game in a matchup against the St. Louis Blues. The 29-year-old Shesterkin has allowed three or more goals in five of his last season games (3-3-0), posting a .898 SV%. The 29-year-old goalie has a 2.53 GAA and .909 SV% in 17 games this season (7-8-2). The Rangers are -139 home favorites against a Blues team that has only scored seven goals in their last four games (1-2-1).

The Rangers have lost two straight and hope to return to the win column on Thursday with Shesterkin tending the twine against the red-hot Colorado Avalanche. The 29-year-old Shesterkin has a serviceable 2.43 GAA and .911 SV% in 16 gams (7-7-2), but has been unspectacular lately, allowing three or more goals in four of his last five games (3-2-0) while posting a .903 SV%. The Rangers enter the action on Thursday as +180 road underdogs against an Avalanche team on a six-game winning streak.

Adam Edstrom draws back into New York's lineup on Thursday against Colorado, resulting in Parssinen returning to the sidelines as a healthy scratch. The 24-year-old Parssinen had a surprising rookie season with the Nashville Predators in 2022-23, scoring an impressive 25 points (6G / 19A) in 45 games, but has not maintained that success in three seasons since, scoring only 31 points (16G / 15A) in 105 games.

Durzi has not played since the second game of the season, recovering from an upper-body injury, but appears to be nearing a return to the lineup after practicing on Thursday. The 27-year-old Durzi was solid in limited action with Utah last season, scoring 11 points (4G / 7A) in 30 games.

The Bruins have played well lately, with wins in eight of their last 10 (8-2-0), but are battling through a myriad of injuries. The team will turn to Korpisalo between the pipes on Wednesday against the Anaheim Ducks. The 31-year-old Korpisalo has had an up-and-down 2025-26 campaign, posting a subpar 3.35 GAA and .878 SV% in eight outings (4-4-0). The Bruins enter Wednesday's contest as +150 road underdogs against a Ducks team coming off an exciting 3-2 overtime victory over the Utah Mammoth.

Parssinen will slot in for the first time since November 8th. He has appeared in 12 games this season, scoring two goals and adding one assist.

Shesterkin will return to New York's crease after he took the night off on Sunday and will look to continue his personal three game winning streak in Vegas on Tuesday. The 29-year-old netminder has been back to his Vezina winning form of years previous in 2025-26, posting a 7-6-2 record with a 2.39 GAA and a .913 SV% in 15 starts this season. He heads to Vegas to take on the struggling Golden Knights, who have lost five of their last six games.
