STAMFORD, Conn. — Even speaking through an interpreter, as he was Monday, the first day of the Rangers’ Prospect Development Camp, this much was clear: Igor Shesterkin has some personality.
In his first interview with the media that cover the Rangers on a daily basis, Shesterkin — with Rangers director of scouting Nick Bobrov serving as his translator — was cracking jokes left and right after his first on-ice appearance in a Rangers jersey.
“It’s always interesting to see new players, but there are a lot of them, so I didn’t have a chance to get to know all of them,’’ Shesterkin said.
