Shesterkin's Workload to Increase After Quick's IR Placement

Igor Shesterkin is expected to see an increased workload for the New York Rangers after Jonathan Quick was placed on injured reserve with a lower-body injury. Coach Mike Sullivan indicated a potential shift in philosophy, possibly having Shesterkin play back-to-backs, a departure from previous management of his starts. Shesterkin has started 18 games this season and expressed confidence in handling more games. The 2022 Vezina Trophy winner will now mentor new backup Dylan Garand, recalled from the AHL.
