Yes, that is what Shesterkin is trying to change/push back against, lol.
Rumor: Per Kevin Weekes. Shesterkin rejects NYRs $88M / 11M AAV offer

They can afford him but will they sign him to 12 or 13 mil contract? Not sure about that.
Hey, he can barely afford a 2 br apt. in Manhattan with that money!

Very fair offer from the Rangers. Shesty probably doesn't care about winning the Cup or wants out of NY.

How many of those 3,600 minutes is he just standing there while his team is on the offense.
Yet again, there is always one GM.
Any one of those teams grabbing Shesterkin would not differ all that greatly from when Florida grabbed Bobrovsky.

Consider how great they're 5 on 5 and getting out the zone, maybe not a whole lot, even if he was just standing there... But more often than not he's engaged in the game and helping the defense transition with his puck movement when a team gets the puck deep with no icing. I'm not for paying him that much but this is kinda' silly to argue against it based on the puck being in the O zone for a percentage of his playing time.
How many of the 2050 minutes is the defenseman standing on blue line while the play is in the opposite corner? You could make that argument for any position. Not all 10 skaters are in on the play every second they're on the ice.

Just mentioning it.
The proven to now proven but now your this age.
It's a tough market for Goalies and I do think Goalies have been shafted. If I am a great hockey player and I can play goalie or forward I'd pick forward since Goalies do not make as much.
I think Shesterkin needs it to be atleast 11.62 to be above Panarin if he stays.

More guys are gonna start taking shorter deals to max out their career earnings I think. But this seems like a take it and run deal to me.
They'll offer 8x$11.5 and he'll take it. That's basically the Panarin contract if you swap the extra year for inflation.
He impacts the game just as much if not more than prime Panarin, I'm ok with $11.5.
Anything more and he can f*** off to a tax free state for $12.5. You simply can't allocate that much to a goalie.

Maybe, but it's still a bit disingenuous to say that he's affecting the game all of those minutes.
His ice time value is probably more like a defenseman that plays A LOT.
Think most guys are more concerned with getting as much guaranteed money as possible.
Nobody wants to end up like Klingberg.

no someone like Shesterkin is worth that, I dunno how people actually sit there and say the most important position for any hockey team isnt worth getting paid.
Goalies deserve top pay just like the top skaters and Dman.
The problem is goalie is also the most volatile position in hockey.
Granted, there is a top tier of 3-5 consistently elite goalies in the NHL and Igor is in that group... But the elite goalies in the league tend to fall off more in their mid 30s than the elite skaters.

Don’t get the outrage here.
NHL insiders have been reporting his next deal will start with an 11 or 12. Most seem to think it will be high 11’s.
So he rejects the lowest offer (11.0) that isn’t a crazy low ball (something in the 10’s or below) and it’s some big news? This is standard negotiating.

still the top goalies deserve to get paid the same as everyone u can have the best team in the world but if ur goalie cant stop the puck u lose. so really goalies are the most important position
Rabid Ranger
2 is better than one
...and how many of the top goalies in the league actually win the Cup? A well-constructed team that has depth can absolutely win without blowing their wad on a goalie.
A team literally just won a year ago with a journeyman backup, and no, I would not pay the top goalie in the league what the likes of Matthews/Draisaitl/MacKinnon/McDavid/Makar are getting/will be getting.

Igor wants more than Bob after taxes.
10M in Florida/Vegas/TN/TX > 10.5 in MTL or 11 in NYC
There's that too lol

We're doomed. f***ing hell I was 3 years old the last time Rangers won the cup.
I'll probably die before seeing them winning another cup.
