2025 Fantasy Outlook
The only area Shesterkin was at his best in 2024-25 was in games played -- he saw action in 61 contests but went 27-29-5 with a 2.86 GAA and a .905 save percentage. It was the first time he missed the 30-win mark in four years and the ratios were career-worsts for the netminder. Still, the Rangers know elite goalies don't grow on trees, which is why they signed him to an eight-year deal at an $11.5 million annual cap hit, which kicks in for 2025-26. Shesterkin was hardly the only problem with last year's Rangers, but he'll need to improve his numbers to help the team get back on track. Shesterkin has the track record to be an elite fantasy goalie, and even a down year didn't look that bad on paper. Any draft-day discount will be slight, but don't hesitate to roster the 29-year-old this season. Read Past Outlooks
Signed an eight-year, $92 million contract extension with the Rangers in December of 2024.
First goalie off Tuesday
Shesterkin was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes at home versus the Penguins.
ANALYSIS
Shesterkin will be looking for a bounce-back campaign after managing just 27 victories in 61 regular-season appearances last year. It was the first time since 2020-21 that the 29-year-old backstop was unable to reach the 35-win threshold. Despite the lack of wins, Shesterkin still managed to post a solid 2.86 GAA and .905 save percentage, good indicators that he'll be able to return to form this year.

Sure-thing Shesterkin is one of the few guarantees in fantasy. He's consistent, night in and night out and he delivers elite results in every category. Plus, Shesterkin is a beast in the postseason. He's likely the sole reason the Rangers went as far as they did in the 2022 and 2024 playoffs. Heading into 2024-25, there's plenty of chatter about a contract extension, and the financial challenge that comes with it. Shesterkin wants max money and that will make him the highest-paid netminder in the NHL. So, cap-league managers have one more year to get real value from his current deal. Don't stress if negotiations drag into the season - they won't impact his stats. Shesterkin is a potential first-round fantasy pick if you believe in building from the net out and he won't last long after the turn if you wait.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely starting Monday
Shesterkin was present for the Rangers' morning skate Monday, signaling that he'll likely draw the start in the team's preseason game on the road against the Islanders, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Shesterkin had a bit of a down year during the 2024-25 campaign, going 27-29-5 with a 2.86 GAA and .905 save percentage, all of which were worse than his previous three seasons. However, he should still serve as the Rangers' No. 1 netminder during the 2025-26 season, and he'll presumably have the opportunity to see plenty of playing time, as he's made at least 53 regular-season appearances in each of the last four campaigns.
