The Igor Shesterkin Contract Saga Is Out Of Hand

Is Igor Shesterkin nuts, or what?

Here the Rangers reportedly are offering him more money ($11 mil) than any NHL goalie ever received and his agent is telling Chris Drury, it ain’t enough.

Am I dreaming? Is this actually happening?

Or, to put it another way, does Drury have the nerve to say, “You don’t like it? Go back to the KHL?”

The Maven is betting that the Rangers will cave to Shesterkin and that will be that.

What’s ridiculous is the Russian’s “chutzpuh.” Shesty’s camp believes that Iggy is the NHL’s best goalie. I got news for them; he ain’t. Not even second best.

Maven Prediction: MSG will up the ante and get the deal done. As for The Salary Cap? That’s a worry for another day.
