Semyon Varlamov will start Wednesday vs. Boston. Varlamov allowed four goals on 21 shots (.810 SV%) for his second loss in three games as he lost to Calgary in his previous start. The Islanders' backup netminder has been incredibly serviceable as expected this season, with his 8-4-1 record, .913 SV% and 2.75 GAA. He will face the league-leading Boston Bruins, who have won six of their last seven games after a 6-0 win over Philadelphia last game.Source: Andrew Gross
Georgiev will start Wednesday in Calgary. Georgiev allowed five goals on 37 shots (.892 SV%) as he lost his sixth start in seven games after a defeat to Florida his last time out. The 26-year-old has been solid despite his recent struggles as of late, shown by his 16-11-3 record, .914 SV% and 2.75 GAA. He will face the Calgary Flames, who lost their previous game vs. Nashville 2-1 but are third in the NHL in shots per game (35.0). Source: Pat Steinberg
