Wait! TNT announcer Eddie Olczyk thinks Igor Shesterkin is to blame for getting run over by Jeff Carter?
He is tied with Curtis Joseph, who did it with the Blues in 1993. In a game like that there is no reason for it,” Gerard Gallant said. Matter of fact I will double down, it looks to me on one replay angle that Carter lowers his shoulder in order to maximize contact. Let’s get this straight, per the NHL rulebook, a goalie is not fair game when they leave the crease. Last night’s game was winding down when Jeff Carter ran Igor Shesterkin with 2:04 left. Despite multiple video angles clearing showing Kakko changing the angle of his skate and being pushed from behind by Brian Dumoulin the call went the Penguins way.
During Game 1's loss, the Rangers had a 10.1% rating, lost the expected goals battle 7.58 to 3.75 in all situations, and 6.63 to 3.43 at 5v5. Igor Shesterkin ...
- All of that said, Game 3 is where the Rangers need to make their next push and take a game just like Pittsburgh did in Game 1. Do you really think the Rangers’ most important player intentionally put himself in a situation where he could potentially get injured, and removed from the series? - And for the “he stuck his leg out” people... Shesterkin is in the trapezoid, the only place behind net the goalie can go without being assessed a penalty to play the puck. It is important for them to find a balance, and in time they will. Why is the onus on him to divert from his path here? - There also was a rare muffed shot on one-timer attempt from one of the circles which otherwise would have resulted in a goal. Right now Igor is playing with a ton of confidence and swagger, and looks like he is locked in to make a major run. K’Andre Miller picked up his second assist, and it was nice to see him getting involved in the offense. Kakko has looked particularly strong along the boards moving his feet, and the Penguins have bounced off him for the most part. That’s the main play that comes to mind.— Vince Z. Mercogliano (@vzmercogliano) May 6, 2022 Artemiy Panarin, who looked off in Game 1, picked up the primary assist and Justin Braun grabbed a secondary helper.
Artemi Panarin and Frank Vatrano each had a goal and two assists and the New York Rangers beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 5-2 in Game 2 on Thursday night to ...
Series tied 1-1. Series tied 1-1. Series tied 1-1. Series tied 1-1. Series tied 1-1. Series tied 1-1. The Predators remain without top goaltender Juuse Saros, who is sidelined by a lower-body injury but could be back later in the series. He allowed MacKinnon's goal on the first shot of the game and turned back everything until Makar's goal. It was just Florida's sixth win in its last 19 home playoff games going back to 1996, and matched the biggest victory margin in franchise playoff history. Guentzel got the rebound of a shot by Marcus Pettersson in front and fired a slap shot past Shesterkin at 8:52. Shesterkin stopped a tip by Bryan Rust and then made a diving save to deny a slap shot by Evgeni Malkin in the opening minute of the period. Shesterkin also stopped a slap shot by Guentzel 3 1/2 minutes in and then had a diving save on Crosby's deflection nearly 30 seconds later.
The Pittsburgh Penguins looked like the slower team but were not without chances. The New York Rangers were a blur of color whizzing around the offensive zone.
If the Penguins are expecting Domingue to be the equal of Shesterkin, that seems to be a bad strategy. Ultimately, the difference wasn’t speed but special teams, a fluky goal off a Penguins defenseman, and a few mistakes that allowed the Rangers to pull away. NEW YORK — The series is tied 1-1.
