Hockey agent Alexei Dementyev commented on the interim results of the first round of the NHL playoffs between the New York Rangers and Washington and called the Rangers’ Igor Shesterkin the strongest goaltender in the league.
The Rangers beat Washington 3-1 on Friday. The score in the best-of-four series was 3-0.
“We cannot say that we see devastating scores during matches, but there are objective situations. The strongest goalie in the league plays for the Rangers and it is very difficult to score against him. It is interesting that today Shesterkin himself tried to score Washington’s goal, and Ovechkin saved his team from one goal. “Rangers show their class in all lines, hence their confident lead in the series – 3-0,” Dementiev said.
The fourth game of the series will take place on Sunday.
