Shesterkin&#8217;s leg bent in an unusual way as his skate was on the ice.\n\nThe goalkeeper, visibly affected, was attended to by the medical staff and had to be helped off the court. He couldn&#8217;t put weight on his left foot.\n\nJonathan Quick, the backup goalie, entered in his place.\n\nAt the end of the first period, the team announced that Shesterkin was suffering a lower-body injury and would not return to the game.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>We don&#8217;t want him to get injured.

Despite a solid performance, he allowed the last two goals of the game.\n\nSean Durzi scored the winning goal for Utah in overtime, while Michael Carcone tied the score for the Mammoth in the third period.\n\nShesterkin, winner of the Vezina Trophy in 2022, is in the first season of an eight-year, $92 million contract, making him the highest-paid player at his position in league history.\n\nThis season, the Russian goalie has a record of 17-12-4 with a 2.47 goals-against average and a .912 save percentage, in his seventh season with the Rangers.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Igor Shesterkin, Rangers Goalie, Suffers Leg Injury The Rangers goalie, Igor Shesterkin, left the game against the Utah Mammoth due to a left leg injury.
