Alexandar Georgiev Looks To Start A Winning Streak On Monday
3 weeks agoColorado Avalanche goaltender Alexandar Georgiev will make his sixth start of the campaign on Monday versus Chicago. Georgiev has had an awful beginning to the season, but he will get a chance to grab a second consecutive victory in a favorable matchup. The Russian netminder beat Anaheim in his last outing 4-3 in overtime with 19 saves to improve to 1-3-0. Georgiev has led the league in wins in back-to-back years, but his goals-against average for this season stands at an ugly 4.99 ahead of Monday's action. Additionally, he has registered a poor .811 save percentage. Georgiev's struggles have allowed Justus Annunen to shine. He won a fourth consecutive start on Sunday with a 26-save effort versus Ottawa. Annunen will likely return to the crease for the next game.
