Georgiev was placed on Injured Reserve earlier today, retroactive to November 13th, but could be an option between the pipes on Thursday against the Washington Capitals. If Georgiev is unable to go, expect Justus Annunen to get the start for Colorado.
Georgiev is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, but he was placed on IR retroactive to November 13th and will be out of the lineup until at least November 21st, when Colorado visits the Washington Capitals. Justus Annunen will likely see the bulk of the work in the crease during Georgiev's absence.
Justus Annunen will start for Colorado on Friday as Georgiev is battling an upper-body injury. Georgiev's day-to-day prognosis is a promising one for a netminder finally starting to regain his form in the crease after a terrible start to the 2024-25 season, allowing only nine total goals in his previous four games (3-1-0) and posting a .913 SV%.
After a stretch of only playing one of eight games, resulting from a horrendous start of allowing three or more goals in his first five games (1-3-0) and posting a .810 SV%, Georgiev has started three straight (2-1-0), allowing seven goals combined and posting a solid .921 SV%. The Avalanche are riding a two-game winning streak and enter the action on Wednesday as -139 home favorites against a Los Angeles Kings club that has lost two of their past three (1-2-0).

An atrocious start to the season resulted in Georgiev only playing one game during an eight-game stretch from mid-October to early November. However, after two serviceable efforts (1-1-0), allowing five total goals and posting a .915 SV%, the Avalanche will turn to Georgiev for a third straight contest on Monday night. Colorado enters Monday's contest as -144 home favorites against a Nashville Predators club in last place in the Central Division (5-9-1).
For only the second time since October 18th, a nine-game stretch, the Avalanche will turn to Georgiev between the pipes. Jared Bednar and the Avalanche coaching staff will hope the off-time helped Georgiev regroup after a horrid start to the 2024-25 season, posting an abysmal 4.62 GAA and .822 SV% in six games (1-4-0). To make matters more concerning, Colorado faces off against a league-leading Winnipeg Jets club (12-1-0) that leads the league offensively with 62 goals in 13 games (4.8 GF / GP).
The Avalanche, riding a five-game winning streak, will turn to Georgiev between the pipes for the first time in 10 days. Georgiev backed up Justus Annunen for the last four games and will hope the rest helps him reset after a forgetful start to the 2024-25 season. In five games (1-3-0), Georgiev has an atrocious 4.99 GAA and .810 SV%. That said, Colorado enters the action on Monday as a sizeable -216 home favorite against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Despite a surprising 0-4-0 start to the season, the Avalanche, one of three teams without a win this season, will turn to Georgiev in the crease for the fifth straight game to start the season. Georgiev had a rough 2023-24 campaign, posting a pedestrian 3.02 GAA and .897 SV% in 63 games (38-18-5), but the 28-year-old netminder has been abysmal to start the 2024-25 season, showcasing an unsightly 5.79 GAA and .802 SV%. That said, the Avalanche enter Friday's matchup as sizeable -254 home favorites in search of their first win of the season when they host the Anaheim Ducks.
For the fourth straight game to start the season, the winless Avalanche (0-3-0) will turn to Georgiev between the pipes again. Georgiev has struggled immensely early in the 2024-25 campaign, including being pulled twice, posting an abysmal 6.58 GAA and .787 SV% in three outings (0-2-0). The 28-year-old Georgiev had a forgetful 2023-24 season as well, showcasing a 3.02 GAA and .897 SV% in 63 games (38-18-5). If Georgiev can't turn his game around soon, it likely won't be long before Jared Bednar and the Avalanche coaching staff give Justus Annunen a chance to overtake the starting position in goal. Colorado enters action on Wednesday as a -124 home favorite against the Boston Bruins.

Despite being pulled in his first two contests, the Avalanche will turn to Georgiev in the crease again on Monday against the New York Islanders. Georgiev has been abysmal early this season, posting an unsightly 7.75 GAA and .680 SV% through two games (0-1-0). The 28-year-old Georgiev had a forgetful 2023-24 campaign as well, posting a 3.02 GAA and .897 SV% in 63 appearances (38-18-5), but the Avalanche are desperately hoping he can revert to that form as soon as possible. The Avalanche enter action as -152 home favorites against the Islanders.
Georgiev was yanked after allowing five goals on 16 shots in Colorado's loss in Vegas in their season opener. It was an ugly start to the season but the Avalanche will not hesitate to go right back to him on Saturday. Colorado are massive favourites (-321) and Georgiev was 24-6-1 with a 2.75 GAA and .902 SV% on home ice last year.

The Avalanche will turn to Georgiev between the pipes on Wednesday night in their season opener against the Vegas Golden Knights. After posting a stellar 2.53 GAA and .918 SV% in the 2022-23 season, Georgiev fell off significantly last season, posting a pedestrian 3.02 GAA and .897 SV% in 63 games (38-18-5). Though his statistics may be inconsistent, he has impressively collected 38 and 40 wins in the last two seasons respectively, and should be a candidate to secure over 35 wins again this season. The Avalanche enter action on Wednesday with even -105 odds on the road against the Golden Knights.

Georgiev allowed four goals on 33 shots (.879 SV%) for a third straight loss but was far and away Colorado's biggest problem in Game 4 and will take the crease again on Wednesday. The 28-year-old has had a very up-and-down playoffs so far, with his 5-4-0 record, 3.10 GAA and .891 SV%. He will head to Dallas to take on the Stars, who are looking for their second-straight series win on Wednesday.
