Rangers' Shesterkin Starts Back-to-Back Games Against Oilers
Igor Shesterkin secured his fifth shutout of the season, making 18 saves as the New York Rangers defeated the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-0, propelling the Rangers into the second Eastern Conference wild-card playoff spot. Vincent Trocheck scored twice in the third period, while Alexis Lafreniere and Artemi Panarin contributed with a goal and an assist each. The Rangers capitalized on a defensive mistake by the Blue Jackets early in the game, taking a lead they would not relinquish. This win marks the Rangers' eighth victory in their last eleven matchups against Columbus. Shesterkin is set to start again against the Edmonton Oilers, playing back-to-back nights, a strategy that has become increasingly rare in the NHL. The Blue Jackets, meanwhile, continue to struggle offensively, having failed to score in three of their last five games.
