The Penguins suffered a disastrous loss against the Rangers on opening night, a 6-0 setback that drew uncharacteristic boos throughout.

Igor Shesterkin, who is in the last year of his contract and who refused three times to talk about his ongoing negotiations, stopped all 29 shots he saw to earn his 16th career shutout. Chris Kreider scored two goals, including one shorthanded, to lead a relentless attack that put 41 shots on net.

Igor Shesterkin made 29 saves to help the visiting New York Rangers to a 6-0 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the season opener for both teams on Wednesday night.
