Rangers' Igor Shesterkin upended as tempers flare in Game 2 with Hurricanes

The Garden crowd nearly saw Igor Shesterkin's best impression of Patrick Roy on Tuesday night, and we are not talking about performance. Andrei Svechnikov took out the Rangers' netminder early in Game 2 as Shesterkin played the puck behind the net, causing the Rangers to bum-rush the Hurricanes winger in defense of their goalie. Shesterkin, who skated as far as the blue line before being accosted by an official, got within a few inches of the scrum and clearly was not too happy. 3 Ryan Lindgren #55 of the New York Rangers goes after Andrei Svechnikov #37 of the Carolina Hurricanes after he tripped up Igor Shesterkin #31 behind the net in the first period on Tuesday.
