Alexandar Georgiev - Page 5 - NHL News & Rumors

Steady in relief Georgiev stopped 20 of 22 shots in relief of Yaroslav Askarov in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Kraken.

Impact The Kraken didn't relent after the swap, but Georgiev was more effective in this contest. It's the first time in six appearances he's allowed fewer than three goals, though all of the previous outings in that span were starts. The 28-year-old remains at a 10-17-0 record with a 3.64 GAA and an .877 save percentage. With Askarov slumping, Georgiev could be back in a goaltending tandem with Vitek Vanecek (face) by the time the Sharks face the Canadiens on Tuesday.

Chased by champs Georgiev stopped 11 of 15 shots in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Georgiev exited the game after A.J. Greer's goal early in the second period, but Yaroslav Askarov didn't stop the bleeding. This was a fourth straight loss for Georgiev, who has allowed 17 goals on 119 shots in that ugly span. He's now 10-17-0 with a 3.65 GAA and an .876 save percentage through 30 appearances. The 28-year-old will have a tough time turning things around in San Jose, so he's best left off most fantasy rosters.

Starting vs. Panthers Georgiev will guard the home net Saturday against Florida, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact Georgiev will look to get back on track after dropping his last three starts, struggling to an .875 save percentage in that span. It won't come easy against a Panthers team that's averaging 3.16 goals per game this season.

Allows six goals Tuesday Georgiev stopped 34 of 40 shots in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Predators. The seventh goal he gave up was an empty-netter in the final period.

Impact Georgiev was making his fourth start across San Jose's last five games, and he was tagged with the loss for the third outing in a row. Even though the 34 saves represented his second-highest output of the campaign, the fact that he allowed six goals erases every single high statistical output he might have accomplished. Over his last four starts, Georgiev has gone 1-3-0 with a 4.04 GAA and an .879 save percentage.

Guarding goal Tuesday Georgiev will defend the road net against Nashville on Tuesday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

Impact Georgiev will get the second half of San Jose's back-to-back after Yaroslav Askarov played in Monday's 6-3 loss to Boston. The 28-year-old Georgiev has a 10-15-0 record with a 3.45 GAA and an .880 save percentage across 28 appearances between San Jose and Colorado this season. Nashville is riding a three-game winning streak despite sitting 31st in the league with 2.53 goals per game in 2024-25.

Tagged with another loss Saturday Georgiev surrendered four goals on 31 shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Islanders.

Impact This game appeared to have been trending toward a low-scoring affair after the opening stanza, but the Islanders blitzed Georgiev for three goals in the middle frame. He conceded all four tallies at even strength. The 28-year-old has allowed 15 goals on 159 shots (.906 save percentage) through five appearances in January, going 1-4-0 in that span. Georgiev's won just two of 10 starts with San Jose since being acquired in a trade from Colorado on Dec. 9. Overall, he has a 10-15-0 record, .880 save percentage and 3.45 GAA split between both clubs in 2024-25.

Slated to start Saturday Georgiev was the first goaltender off the ice at morning practice, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports, and is expected to guard the visiting crease against the Islanders on...

Impact Georgiev will make his third consecutive start on the current road trip. The former Avalanche netminder is 2-7-0 with a 3.51 GAA and an .890 save percentage over nine starts since his trade to San Jose on Dec. 9. The Islanders are 27th in NHL scoring, averaging 2.61 goals per game this season.

Gets little help in loss Georgiev stopped 30 of 33 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Blue Jackets, with Columbus' final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact The Jackets scored twice in the first period due to a few defensive breakdowns by the Sharks, and the offense wasn't able to dig out of the early hole. Georgiev has started four of the last five games, going 1-3-0 with a 2.80 GAA and .914 save percentage, and San Jose may be showcasing the 28-year-old -- he becomes a free agent this summer, and Yaroslav Askarov is the team's goalie of the future -- ahead of the March 7 trade deadline.

Starting against Columbus Georgiev will tend the twine on the road against Columbus on Thursday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Georgiev snapped a six-game losing streak Tuesday against Detroit, and he'll attempt to stay hot in his second consecutive start Thursday. The 28-year-old has made eight starts since joining San Jose, going 2-6-0 with a 3.57 GAA and .887 save percentage. He'll have a tough test Thursday, as the Blue Jackets rank fifth in the NHL with 3.36 goals per game.

JANUARY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Gets second win with new team Georgiev made 25 saves in a 6-3 win over Detroit on Tuesday.

Impact It was just his second win in eight starts in San Jose. Georgiev has been a workhorse over the past few years, but the wheels have come completely off his game. He's 10-13-0 in 25 starts with a combined 3.44 GAA and .879 save percentage. Start Georgiev at your own peril.

In goal against Detroit Georgiev will protect the road crease Tuesday against the Red Wings, according to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

Impact Georgiev allowed less than three goals in a game in Friday's 2-1 loss to Utah for the first time since Dec. 7. The 28-year-old is mired in a six-game losing streak, and it won't get any easier against one of the hottest teams in the NHL on Tuesday. Detroit has won seven of eight games since Todd McLellan took over as head coach Dec. 27.

Loses it late Friday Georgiev gave up two goals on 26 shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to Utah.

Impact Georgiev's losing streak reached six games Friday, but this was his best performance during the skid. The 28-year-old gave up a goal to Barrett Hayton with 1:32 left in the third period, which was the difference. Georgiev is now 9-13-0 with a 3.46 GAA and an .878 save percentage over 25 appearances this season. Yaroslav Askarov is set to start at home versus the Wild on Saturday, and Georgiev could find himself on the bench more often until he gets back into the win column.

JANUARY 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in Utah Georgiev will be between the visiting pipes in Utah on Friday, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.

Impact Georgiev won his first start with San Jose after his trade from Colorado in December and promptly lost his next five games. The 28-year-old netminder has ceded his spot as the No. 1 goaltender to Yaroslav Askarov with the Sharks. Georgiev is 9-12-0 in 24 appearances split between Colorado and Utah, allowing 76 goals on 615 shots (.876 save percentage). Utah is averaging 2.85 goals per game in 2024-25.

JANUARY 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Falls to Vegas Georgiev stopped 38 of 41 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Georgiev watched from the bench for the previous two games as Yaroslav Askarov defeated the Lightning and the Devils. The 28-year-old Georgiev couldn't keep things going for the Sharks, taking his fifth straight loss, though this was the first time he gave up fewer than four goals in that span. The veteran netminder is now 9-12-0 with a 3.53 GAA and an .876 save percentage through 24 appearances. If Askarov keeps playing well, Georgiev could find himself in the backup role and potentially even in danger of being scratched on occasion once Vitek Vanecek (face) is ready to return.
