The New York Rangers‘ goaltending situation has not enjoyed a smooth start to the new year.
Coming into the season, the tandem of Alexandar Georgiev and Igor Shesterkin was expected to be one of the best goalie duos in hockey, but that hasn’t been the case.
Georgiev looked great in his first start, shutting out the New York Islanders in an admirable performance. Shesterkin looked rough in his first few games, and head coach David Quinn opted to roll with a goaltending rotation.
However, Shesterkin’s most recent starts have been much better, and Quinn announced that he would no longer be going with a rotation.
