Georgiev surrendered five goals on 41 shots in the Rangers loss in Montreal that night and has gone 4-4-0 with a 3.37 GAA and .899 SV% in eight games this season.

Georgiev will start Saturday in Montreal.

Georgiev surrendered four goals on 27 shots in the Rangers loss to the Capitals last Saturday. Georgiev was 3-2-1 with a 2.47 GAA, .915 SV% and one shutout in five appearances in November. It’s hard to tell exactly what you’re going to get from the 22-year-old from start-to-start, so it’s hard to trust him tonight in Montreal. The Habs are averaging 3.00 goals per game (t-16th) this season.

Georgiev got two starts with the Wolf Pack while Henrik Lundqvist started the Rangers’ three games last weeks. Georgiev went 1-1-0 while allowing six goals on 63 shots (.905 SV%) in his tow starts and returns to the NHL, where he might not start a game for a few weeks—their next back-to-back isn’t until Nov.9-Nov.10.

Georgiev will start Saturday vs. the Sabres.

Georgiev allowed four goals on 36 shots in the Rangers loss in Philadelphia on Thursday. After a hot start to his NHL career, Georgiev has now allowed at least three goals in his last four starts. Despite the recent struggles, he remains a pretty good option against a bad Sabres team.

Georgiev will start Wednesday vs. the Penguins.

Georgiev stopped 41 of 44 shots in the Rangers win over the Hurricanes on Monday. He has basically forced the Rangers to consider starting him as he continues to stand tall despite facing a barrage of shots. In his first four NHL starts, Georgiev has faced an average of 39.5 shots per game and has turned aside 93 percent of them. Tonight may be the stiffest test of his young career with the two-time Stanley Cup Champs coming to MSG.
