Rangers Vs Panthers game 5 gets heated as Igor Shesterkin starts throwing bombs
Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the New York Rangers and Florida Panthers is currently tied at 1-1 after 40 minutes of play.
However, throughout the night things have been chippy with plenty of big hits and cheap shots after the whistle, but one player who continues his to get under everyone's skin and does a good job at it is Matthew Tkachuk.
Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk has been going at Rangers goalie Igor Shesterkin all series long, and finally tonight Shesterkin gives it back to him, by throwing some heavy punches at Tkachuk as he sits in front of the net.
It will definitely be interesting to see how the rest of the game will be considering both teams are pretty fired up.
