After Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin shook off a bit of pain, he got up and charged toward Senators forward Brady Tkachuk, who had been tangled up with Rangers defender Braden Schneider.

Shesterkin stopped 15 of 17 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Bruins.

The real story is Shesterkin’s 164:03 shutout streak, dating back to the opening minute of the second period in Salt Lake City last week. The Rangers are playing so much better in front of their goalies this month that their numbers are bound to be better, but Shesterkin is also very much on point after his brief absence at the start of January.
