Alexandar Georgiev - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Loses in finale Georgiev stopped 25 of 27 shots in Wednesday's 3-0 loss to the Oilers. The third goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Georgiev went 0-3-3 with 25 goals allowed over his last six games of the season. The 29-year-old ends the year at 15-26-4 with a 3.71 GAA and an .875 save percentage. Per Max Miller of NHL.com, Georgiev has already been informed he'll be a free agent this summer, as general manager Mike Grier is not interested in re-signing the struggling goalie. Given Georgiev's statistical decline over the last two years, he may not find anything more than a backup role if he stays in the NHL, though he could opt to continue his career overseas. Fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting Georgiev to make a positive impact in 2025-26, regardless of where he ends up.

First goalie off Georgiev was the first goalie off during Wednesday's morning skate, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Oilers.

Impact Georgiev hasn't been particularly sharp in recent weeks, going 0-2-3 with a 4.92 GAA and .858 save percentage over his last five appearances, but he'll draw the start in Wednesday's regular-season finale. He made a home start against Edmonton on Nov. 30, turning aside 28 of 31 shots (.903 save percentage) en route to a loss.

Makes 35 saves in OT loss Georgiev stopped 35 of 37 shots in Monday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Canucks.

Impact Georgiev was beaten midway through the third period and with only 18 seconds left in overtime, so he had to settle with another OT loss -- the third one he's had over his last four starts. Georgiev is on a five-game losing streak, going 0-2-3 with a 4.92 GAA and an .858 save percentage over that span. It's clear he's not playing at a good-enough level to be considered as a fantasy alternative in most formats, though the Sharks only have one game left in the schedule, so it's easy to overlook Georgiev and aim for better goaltending options in that slate.

DeBrusk scores late in OT to give Canucks 2-1 win over Sharks

Jake DeBrusk scored with 17.6 seconds left on the clock in overtime and the Vancouver Canucks beat the struggling San Jose Sharks 2-1

Starting in Vancouver Georgiev will guard the road net against the Canucks on Monday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact Georgiev has allowed 21 goals on 125 shots during his four-game (0-0-2) losing skid. He has a 15-25-3 record with a 3.79 GAA and an .872 save percentage over 47 appearances between San Jose and Colorado this season. Vancouver ranks 22nd in the league with 2.88 goals per game in 2024-25.

APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Can't handle Wild's returning stars Georgiev stopped 36 of 44 shots in Wednesday's 8-7 overtime loss to the Wild.

Impact Georgiev gave up a combined six goals to players returning from injury -- four to Joel Eriksson Ek and two to Kirill Kaprizov. Among the many lowlights of Georgiev's season, this was one of the worst, as he wasted the Sharks' three-goal comeback in the third period that forced overtime. He's 0-2-2 with 21 goals allowed over his last four contests, dropping to 15-25-3 on the year. Georgiev has also posted horrendous ratios with a 3.79 GAA and an .872 save percentage over 47 appearances. The Sharks' road trip continues in Edmonton on Friday, but Georgiev should not be a goalie any fantasy manager is relying on at this time of the season.

Set to start Wednesday Georgiev is expected to start on the road against Minnesota on Wednesday, per Jessi Pierce of NHL.com.

Impact Georgiev has lost his past three games (0-2-1) while allowing 13 goals on 81 shots (.840 save percentage). He has a 15-25-2 record, 3.69 GAA and .873 save percentage in 46 appearances this campaign. The Wild are tied for 27th in goals per game with 2.68.

APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE

Pulled in second period Georgiev allowed four goals on 11 shots before he was pulled in the second period of Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Kraken.

Impact Georgiev missed one game due to an upper-body injury, and it's unclear if that played a part in his poor performance. The 29-year-old lost his third straight outings and has given up at least three goals in four consecutive games. He dropped to 15-25-2 with a 3.69 GAA and an .873 save percentage over 46 appearances this season. The Sharks' next game is at home versus the Flames.

Jared McCann has 2 goals and an assist in the Kraken's 5-1 victory the Sharks

Jared McCann had two goals and an assist, Joey Daccord stopped 23 shots and the Seattle Kraken beat the San Jose Sharks 5-1 on Saturday night

Getting back in action Georgiev (upper body) will start Saturday at home versus the Kraken, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact Georgiev was out for Thursday's game due to an upper-body injury, but it ended up being a short-term issue. He is 3-3-1 with a 3.56 GAA and an .879 save percentage over his last seven games. His only appearance against the Kraken this season was Jan. 30, a relief outing in which he saved 20 of 22 shots.

APRIL 6 • ROTOWIRE

Out with upper-body issue Georgiev will miss out against the Oilers on Thursday due to an upper-body injury, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact With Georgiev on the shelf, the team will deploy Georgi Romanov in the pipes Thursday while recently recalled Gabriel Carriere will serve as the No. 2 option. In his 27 outings with San Jose this year, the 29-year-old Georgiev is 7-17-2 with a 3.80 GAA and .876 save percentage. The backstop will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason and may have to find a new place to play following his underwhelming stint with the club.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Loses in shootout Georgiev stopped 34 of 37 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Ducks.

Impact The Sharks rallied from two goals down in the third period to force overtime. Georgiev did well after an ugly first period, but Mason McTavish finally broke through in the shootout to send the San Jose netminder to his sixth loss in nine outings. Georgiev is down to 15-24-2 with a 3.64 GAA and an .876 save percentage over 45 appearances this season. The Sharks return home to face the Oilers on Thursday -- as usual, Georgiev is a goalie best avoided in fantasy, especially in a matchup as tough as that one.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Guarding cage against Ducks Georgiev will patrol the crease for Tuesday's road clash versus Anaheim, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Georgiev gave up 11 goals on 68 shots (.838 save percentage) in his last two outings. He'll face a Ducks squad that is generating just 2.71 goals per game this year, a significantly easier matchup compared to his last two opponents, the Maple Leafs and the Rangers.

APRIL 1 • ROTOWIRE

Lit up for six goals Georgiev stopped 27 of 33 shots in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Rangers.

Impact Georgiev had little success against one of his former teams, as the Rangers' top players were firing on all cylinders. Georgiev had won three of his last four outings, but this was a return to more familiar form for the 29-year-old goalie. He's down to 15-24-1 with a 3.66 GAA and an .874 save percentage through 44 outings this season. Georgi Romanov will likely get the nod in Los Angeles on Sunday, which has been a fortress for the Kings, who are 26-4-4 at home. Even if Georgiev gets the nod, he won't be a favorable option for fantasy managers.

Tending twine Saturday Georgiev will guard the home cage versus the Rangers on Saturday, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

Impact It has been a tough season for Georgiev, who started the year with Colorado, going 8-7-0 with a 3.38 GAA and an .874 save percentage. A trade to San Jose has not helped his starts as he is 7-16-1 with a 3.75 GAA and an .877 save percentage across 25 appearances with the Sharks. The Rangers are coming off a 5-4 overtime loss to Anaheim on Friday, boosting their scoring to 2.97 goals per game in 2024-25, 15th in the NHL.

Squanders lead, wins in shootout Georgiev stopped 30 of 35 shots in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Georgiev blew a two-goal lead in the final minute of regulation, but he held his ground in overtime. The Sharks then lifted him up with a pair of shootout tallies to take the win, giving Georgiev his third win in four outings. The 29-year-old is just 15-23-1 on the year while adding a 3.60 GAA and an .876 save percentage over 43 appearances. The Sharks have a back-to-back over the weekend, with a home game against the Rangers on Saturday followed by a visit to Los Angeles on Sunday. Expect Georgiev and Georgi Romanov to split those starts.

Facing Maple Leafs Georgiev will patrol the home crease against Toronto on Thursday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact Georgiev is coming off a 22-save performance in Saturday's 3-1 win over Boston, and he stopped 25 shots in a 3-2 shootout win over Toronto on March 3. He has a 6-16-1 record with a 3.71 GAA and an .878 save percentage in 24 appearances with the Sharks this season. The Maple Leafs rank eighth in the league with 3.24 goals per game in 2024-25.

MARCH 27 • ROTOWIRE

Secures win Saturday Georgiev stopped 22 of 23 shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Bruins.

Impact Georgiev won for the fourth time in eight outings in March, though this was arguably his best outing of the month. He's allowed two or fewer goals in all four of those wins, but it's a lack of game-to-game consistency that continues to plague his overall numbers. For the season, Georgiev is up to 14-23-1 with a 3.57 GAA and an .876 save percentage through 42 appearances. The Sharks have four days off before hosting the Maple Leafs, who Georgiev defeated with a 25-save performance in a March 3 shootout win by a 3-2 score.

MARCH 23 • ROTOWIRE

Back in net Saturday Georgiev will start at home Saturday against the Bruins, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact It'll be Georgiev's first start since last Saturday when he was pulled after the first period after allowing three goals on 17 shots against the Capitals. Since joining San Jose, Georgiev is 5-16-1 with a subpar .875 save percentage and 3.84 GAA.
