Alexandar Georgiev News

Georgiev allowed five goals on 38 shots in the Rangers loss to the Penguins on January 30th. Since opening the season with a shutout, Georgiev has lost three straight while allowing a combined 12 goals on 82 shots (.854 SV%). Tonight he'll face a Bruins team that has won seven of their last eight (7-0-1) while averaging 4.00 goals for and just 2.38 goals against.

Georgiev allowed three goals on 24 shots in the Rangers loss in Buffalo on Tuesday. Igor Shesterkin has started three of the last four games, so they'll give Georgiev the nod in the first game of a two-game set vs. the Penguins. After opening the season with a 23-save shutout, Georgiev has lost his last two while allowing a combined seven goals on 44 shots (.841 SV%). Pittsburgh comes in at 4-3-1 while averaging 2.75 goals per game (19th) through their first eight games.

Georgiev was pulled after allowing four goals on 20 shots in the Rangers' loss to New Jersey last Tuesday. Igor Shesterkin started the last two games but lost both, so they'll come back to Georgiev on Tuesday. He posted a 23-save shutout in his first start of the season but draws a tough assignment against a Sabres team that is playing good hockey to start the season.
