You really have to ask yourself this question: Do the Rangers really dislike their goalkeepers? I kid you not. Take the Saturday night 4-0 win in Detroit as a for-instance. His teammates left Jonathan Quick out to dry so many times it's a miracle that the poor abandoned fella didn't shrivel up in his crease and disappear out the exit ramp at Little Caesars Arena. "We should have won that game, 8-1, said Red Wings coach Derek Lalonde. "That's how many good chances we had." Rangers fans won't want to hear this but Igor Shesterkin should have played that way on Thursday night at home against Buffalo. Before the second period was over coach Peter Laviolette couldn't take it anymore and put the hook on Minus five-goals,Iggy. Which brings us to The Maven's "Double-Dare-You" time. Coming off his massive save performance in Motor City, Quick deserves the starting assignment. Give Iggy another rest so he can muse over whether he'll be making $11.5 million or – perish the thought – $12.5 million in his next deal. New York's next opponent just happens to be the Winnipeg Jets who just happen to be the NHL's best team with a record-breaking 14 wins in their first 15 games. Stan Fischler talks about Matt Rempe. Peg's goalie is a fella from Commerce, Michigan who happens to be the reigning Vezina and Jennings Trophy-winner. According to Jared Clinton in The Hockey News Yearbook, Connor Hellebuyck should be penciled in for 60-plus starts. While a hot goalie like Quick should be going against Hellebuyck tomorrow night, Lavvy likely will decide on Shesterkin. Hey, should Iggy come up with a shutout the way Quick did, he just might up his ante to, say, a BILLION!
