Set to start Saturday Georgiev will start at home in Saturday's Game 3 against Dallas, per Tracey Myers of NHL.com.

Impact Georgiev surrendered four goals on 31 shots en route to a 5-3 loss to the Stars in Game 2 on Thursday. He's 5-2 with a 3.10 GAA and an .886 save percentage in seven playoff contests this year. He struggled in the regular season too, posting a 3.02 GAA and an .897 save percentage in 63 outings, but he still finished with an impressive 38-18-5 record thanks to the Avalanche's potent offense.

Drops Game 2 Georgiev allowed four goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Stars in Game 2. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Georgiev and the Avalanche again found themselves in a hole early on, and the comeback effort fell short this time around. Georgiev's five-game winning streak was snapped, and he's now allowed 10 goals over his last three outings. The Stars are giving him trouble early in games, though he may be able to get back on track with this second-round series shifting back to Colorado for Games 3 and 4 on Saturday and Monday, respectively.

Rebounds after rough first Georgiev stopped 19 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.

Impact The Stars jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first period, scoring three times within 10 minutes in the frame. However, Georgiev would hold them scoreless on their final 13 shots over the final two periods and overtime as the Avs rallied for a 4-3 overtime victory. It's the fifth straight win for Georgiev after he dropped the first game of Colorado's opening-round series. The 28-year-old netminder sports an .889 save percentage with a 2.94 GAA in the postseason.

Starting Game 1 Georgiev will start Tuesday on the road against Dallas in Round Two of the Stanley Cup playoffs, per Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports.

Impact Georgiev played ok during the first series, recording a .893 save percentage and allowed 15 goals in five games. The 28-year-old has a .907 save percentage and a 6-3 record in 10 career appearances against the Stars. He will need to be better in round two for the Avalanche to have a chance of moving on.

Secures series win Georgiev stopped 33 of 36 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Jets in Game 5.

Impact Georgiev allowed seven goals in a Game 1 loss, then gave up a total of eight goals over the next four games to guide the Avalanche to the 4-1 series win. Any questions about his ability to step up in the playoffs have been put to rest now. Georgiev will remain the starter heading into the second round, and he'll get some extra rest while the Avalanche await the winner of the Stars-Golden Knights series.

In goal for Game 5 Georgiev will guard the road goal in Game 5 versus the Jets on Tuesday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

Impact Georgiev has bounced back after losing Game 1, winning three straight contests to put the Avalanche on the brink of securing the first-round series. He's allowed just five goals on 81 shots during those three straight wins.

Third straight win Georgiev allowed one goal on 27 shots in Sunday's 5-1 home win over the Jets.

Impact Georgiev allowed a first period goal on the fifth shot of the game but then kicked aside the next 22 shots to keep the Jets off the scoreboard. After a poor performance in game one, Georgiev has only allowed five goals on 77 shots for a .935 save percentage in the last three games. The Avalanche will look to move on to round two when they visit Winnipeg on Tuesday.

Tending twine in Game 4 Georgiev will protect the home net Sunday in Game 4 against Winnipeg, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Georgiev has stopped 50 of 54 shots in two straight wins following a disastrous showing in Game 1 versus the Jets. With a victory in Sunday's contest, the Avalanche could take a 3-1 series lead back to Winnipeg for Game 5 on Tuesday.

Wins Game 3 Georgiev stopped 22 of 24 shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Jets in Game 3.

Impact Georgiev appears to have gotten himself back on track, allowing just four goals on 54 shots over the past two games, both being Avalanche wins. He had a rough second period Friday, but the Avalanche's offense took over in the third. Now that he has consecutive wins for the first time in over a month, there should be less chatter of head coach Jared Bednar switching away from Georgiev going forward. Game 4 is Sunday in Colorado.

Gets starting nod Friday Georgiev will be between the pipes at home for Game 3 versus Winnipeg on Friday, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Georgiev was downright bad in Game 1, giving up seven goals on 23 shots (.696 save percentage), but bounced back in Game 2 to even up the best-of-seven series. With Justus Annunen (illness) ready to serve as the backup Friday, a bad performance Friday could see Georgiev relegated to the No. 2 role in the future.

Bounces back in Game 2 Georgiev allowed two goals on 30 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Jets in Game 2.

Impact Georgiev turned in a good effort just one game after getting torched for seven goals on 23 shots. It didn't start well, as the Jets led 2-1 at the halfway mark, but the Avalanche had the last four goals of the game. The 28-year-old's recent performance has been far from strong or consistent, so it'll be important for him to build on this outing as the series shifts to Denver on Friday for Game 3.

Impact Georgiev's play was horrendous on Sunday, allowing seven goals on 23 shots in a 7-6 loss to the Jets in Game 1. The 28-year-old will look to bounce back in a big way Tuesday night in the tough atmosphere Winnipeg has. He will have to be better if Colorado has any chance in this series.

Lit up in loss Georgiev allowed seven goals on 23 shots in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Jets in Game 1.

Impact Georgiev's struggles from late in the regular season seeped into the first playoff game. The seven goals allowed matched a season high -- he also gave up seven in a shutout loss versus the Golden Knights on Nov. 4. Georgiev has played 125 regular-season contests over the last two campaigns, so overwork is a real concern, especially with the obvious signs of diminished performance. It's unclear if head coach Jared Bednar will stick with Georgiev or turn to Justus Annunen (illness) for Tuesday's Game 2.
