Igor Shesterkin had a sensational week for the New York Rangers, and the NHL recognized him for his efforts by naming him the league’s third star of the week.
Nick Schmaltz of the Arizona Coyotes was named second star, and Jason Robertson of the Dallas Stars was named the league’s first star.
Over the past week Shesterkin stopped 106 of the 111 shots he faced, and went 3-0-0 to give the Rangers a perfect week of play. Sunday’s victory against the Winnipeg Jets saw him stop 45 shots, and he improved to 10-0-0 in games in which he made 40 or more saves.
