The New York Rangers are riding high with a 2-1 series lead over the Florida Panthers in the Eastern Conference finals led by stellar goaltending from Igor Shesterkin, who's made a name for himself as one of the top goalies in the NHL.

Currently, Shesterkin and the Rangers are halfway to the Stanley Cup Finals. Yet they've got some tough competition in the form of Sergei Bobrovsky, Matthew Tkachuk, and the reigning Eastern Conference champions.

Tkachuk's been yapping at Shesterkin throughout the series, as he tends to do, trying to rattle him. But Shesterkin's response was the type of a more of a show-not-tell kind of guy. Despite his limited English, he lets his play on the ice do all the talking.

Igor Shesterkin on if he likes the back and forth when a player like Matthew Tkachuk tries to yap at him during the game, after a save, after a period:

"I'm lucky because I don't speak English."

He said that, of course, in English.

Game 4 between the Rangers and Panthers is set for tomorrow night at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise. It's bound to be another exciting showdown after the Rangers thrilling 5-4 overtime win on Sunday.
