Shesterkin will get the start Thursday after stopping 18 of 22 shots in his last start, leading to a shakey 6-4 win Monday over Anaheim.

Reimer will start Friday vs. the Hurricanes.

Reimer will take the net for his second start of the 2022-23 season and first start on North American soil. The 34-year-old played well in the Shark's opener a week ago, stopping 28 of 31 shots while getting minimal offensive support. He and the Sharks will be hoping to enter the win column for the first time this season but have the daunting task of doing so against the powerhouse that is the Hurricanes.

Shesterkin will start Thursday in Minnesota.

Shesterkin takes the crease for the Rangers' second game of the 2022-23 season. It was much the same for last year's Vezina winner in Tuesday's opening game as New York beat Tampa Bay 3-1 on the back of the Russians' 25-save effort (.962). He will look to prove impressive in another tough matchup as the Rangers head to Minnesota Thursday.
