Rangers defeated the Hurricanes in Game 7, 6-2 last night in Raleigh. Before leaving the ice, Rangers' netminder Igor Shesterkin, said goodbye to some Canes' fans.

Shesterkin has endured "Igor" chants from more than one fanbase this postseason. The Penguins fans chanted his name every game in Pittsburgh, and he made them pay in the long run.

Furthermore, Shesterkin is creating his trademark with waving goodbye. Following a regular season game against the Penguins earlier this year, Shesterkin waved goodbye to countryman Evgeni Malkin and the Penguins.

A little bit of confidence never hurt anybody. And we love to see a little personality among NHL players, especially netminders. Canes and Pens' fans might not thrilled with Shesterkin's actions, but his team and the Rangers' fans love him.
