Igor Shesterkin shuts down reporter after being asked a ridiculous question
Igor Shesterkin shuts down reporter after being asked a ridiculous question regarding his future with the New York Rangers.
New York Rangers starting goalie Igor Shesterkin is set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the next season.
Shesterkin and his camp are setting out to seal a massive extension from the Rangers for roughly $12M AAV on his next contract. Making him to be the highest paid goalie ever in the National Hockey League.
However, when Shesterkin was faced with the media and was asked he was thinking about a long-term contract with the Rangers and he immediately shut it down.
Here's what he had to say:
Igor Shesterkin was asked if he is thinking about a long-term contract with the Rangers:
"I'm sorry, I don't speak English"
Obviously he didn't mean any disrespect from his comment, and everyone knows that.
But to be asked a question like that after being eliminated from the playoffs, and still having a full season with the team just didn't seem like the appropriate question for the time, and Igor gave the best answer possible as he has other things to worry about.
