Igor Shesterkin Rejects Historic Contract Offer from Rangers

The goaltender turned down an eight-year, $88 million deal that would have made him the NHL's highest-paid goalie.

Igor Shesterkin, entering the final year of his current contract, declined the Rangers' offer which would have paid him $11 million annually.
The offer would have surpassed Carey Price's previous record-setting contract for a goaltender in the NHL.
Sources suggest the leak of the contract terms might have been intended to pressure Shesterkin into accepting the deal.
Shesterkin's camp reportedly seeks an annual salary of $12 million, aiming to become the highest-paid player on the Rangers.
Despite the contract rejection, negotiations are expected to continue as Shesterkin remains a crucial part of the Rangers' lineup.
