  • Stellar performance in loss
    Bobrovsky made 28 saves on 30 shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 2.

    Advice: Bobrovsky was spectacular in Friday's loss but he was outdueled in net by New York's Igor Shesterkin. Surprisingly, Bobrovsky hadn't faced at least 30 shots since Game 5 of Florida's first-round series against Tampa Bay. The 35-year-old netminder also hasn't allowed more than two goals past him in seven consecutive contests. Bob is locked in at the right time, and he'll have a chance to bounce back in Game 3 on Sunday afternoon. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:10 pm
     
  • Avoids consecutive losses
    Shesterkin turned aside 26 of 27 shots on goal in Friday's 2-1 overtime win against Florida in Game 2.

    Advice: It was a goaltending duel at Madison Square Garden on Friday night, and Shesterkin emerged victorious to help the Rangers avoid a two-game deficit in the series. Prior to the win Friday night, Shesterkin allowed at least two goals in eight consecutive appearances, so perhaps this type of performance is a confidence booster for the netminder and his team going forward. The 28-year-old is 9-3 with a 2.22 GAA and .928 save percentage so far during the postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:55 pm
