It only happens if the teams are allowed to protect a single goalie and the "must protect NMC" option is turned on. Halak, the other Ranger's goalie, has a NMC; Shesterkin doesn't, so in that specific situation the Rangers have no other option but to expose Shesterkin. If you leave the NMC-protection off, they protect Shesterkin and expose Halak.
