Rangers penalty-kill unit came up big when it mattered most in their 5-2 Game 6 win over the Hurricanes at the Garden.
said later. “A big thanks to them. They really saved me. I don’t think the other team got any shots off of me during that penalty kill, which was great. They put up a crazy effort.”As much of a Herculean effort as Shesterkin, who finished with 37 saves, put up, that kill came at a rare moment in which he was looking somewhat vulnerable. He had just allowed his second goal of the period.
That is because just a few minutes after the first successful kill, the goalie took a penalty of his own. The Rangers had been hemmed into their own zone, and they needed Shesterkin to make a big stop on Seth Jarvis in the crease. Instead, Shesterkin was called for interference.
