New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin is going on injured reserve, according to a person with knowledge of the decision. The 29-year-old Shesterkin, who recently signed a $92 million extension through the 2032-33 season, is 11-15-1 with a 3.10 goals-against average and.906 save percentage through 27 games. The 2022 Vezina Trophy winner as the league’s top netminder had a 2.58 GAA and.912 save percentage last season when he helped the Rangers win the Presidents’ Trophy for the league’s top regular-season record. Shesterkin landing on IR comes after Rangers general manager Chris Drury traded captain Jacob Trouba to Anaheim and winger Kaapo Kakko to Seattle earlier this month in moves aimed to turn his team’s performance around.
