Player Discussion Igor Shesterkin

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Wasting a 1st overall sure as heck affected the Islanders ability to compete. You can bring up Laf and KK but those guys were the consensus picks at that spot, DP was a reach and a surprise and it really stung them for a generation

We are talking about the buy out here, right? Not the draft pick.

Advanced metrics may say otherwise but for me it’s still Jagr in 05-06. Bias probably but he was such a beast that year. Regardless we are beyond spoiled going for the king to shesty.

What a season. That Nylander, Straka, Jagr line is my favorite Ranger line of all time. I expected them to score every shift. Nylander is by far my favorite “cup of coffee” Ranger.

He did more with less that season than any other Rangers player I've ever seen. He was still fresh off being on the receiving end of a lot of hate for his time with the Capitals and the Rangers were projected to be AWFUL that year after how they performed in 03-04 before the lockout. Jagr said before the season started he thought the team was going to make the playoffs and they did.

No, how picking a goalie in round 1 of the draft can backfire. The 1.5 mil a year helps prove that point, but was not the point.

So, actually first because those old stats don’t count eh?

 

[SA16]

Wow, that’s pretty good. I wonder where Igor Shesterkin ranks.

Plante's numbers aren't official since the NHL didn't start tracking saves officially until 1954 (I think). But manually calculating it based on box scores on the Flyers Hockey Summary project, Plante's sv% in his first 80 is .932

My comment was somewhat tongue in cheek, but I have a hard time putting any stock into O6 stats for many reasons.

Suffice it to say that Jacques Plante would get lit up like a Christmas tree in a modern NHL game.

Yeah. I don’t know why I let that continue to annoy me.

What if he was allowed to use the gigantic pads and blockers current goalies wear.

how would current goalies do playing with no friggin’ mask?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Did Igor make the save on Crosby or did he miss?

Edit: Whoops wrong thread!

His family is in Russia I think. This sh*t can really impact Igor's mental state. He's got to be scared and concerned.

That goes for nearly every Russian and Ukrainian player in the league.

 

[Luger]

Leaked documents show that Ukraine decided it will surrender if Shesterkin gets drafted into the Russian military because he's unbeatable.

Good read, thanks.

I don't think he's going to join the army though. He wouldn't run around and desert us.

Why is this a thing? I hate this.

 

[Harbour Dog]

I would assume it's mostly meant to improve cardio. Which you can definitely see in the video. Lots of side stepping and arm motions.

They certainly do not. Jagr is one of the best possession players (advanced stats wise, anyway) in the recorded history of hockey.

Was just assuming lol glad to see metrics confirm what I thought.
