You want to hear some good news? Yesterday we talked about Igor Shesterkin who is currently the best goaltender in the American Hockey League. Guess what? New York Rangers prospect Tyler Wall is the best goaltender in college hockey. You can never have too many good goalies, but it does present problems.
The Rangers have a history of finding goaltending gems in late rounds of the draft. Henrik Lundqvist, selected 205th over all in the seventh round, will go down as one of the greatest late round picks in NHL history.
Igor Shesterkin was selected 118th overall in the fourth round in 2014.
