New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin will miss the remainder of the season following a right knee injury sustained during a game against the Washington Capitals on Friday night. The team officially confirmed the diagnosis on Saturday.

Shesterkin was forced to leave the ice during the contest after a fall, requiring assistance from a teammate as he was unable to put weight on his right leg. The injury marks a significant personnel loss for the Rangers as they conclude their season schedule.
