Georgiev will likely start for the Avalanche on Wednesday when they welcome the Anaheim Ducks into town. Georgiev is coming off a solid 18-save effort (.947 SV%) in a 5-1 win over the Seattle Kraken on Monday, his first quality start in over three weeks. Before Monday's contest, Georgiev had an ugly .832 SV% in his previous five games (1-4-0). The Avalanche hope Georgiev's most recent effort is a sign he is getting his game back on track as they are huge -306 home favourites against a Ducks team that played in Nashville last night.

Duehr will sit in favour of A.J. Greer on Tuesday. Duehr has registered one goal and three assists in 12 games this season with an ATOI of 8:22.

Poturalski had two goals, seven points and two PIMs in 10 games played with Coachella Valley (AHL) to start the season and has been recalled to Seattle for the first time Tuesday. The 29-year-old forward has appeared in four NHL games since he made his debut in 2016-17 with Carolina, and has no goals, two assists and a -4 plus/minus.

Gushchin, the 76th overall pick of the Sharks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, will make his season debut on Tuesday. He played his first two NHL games last season, tallying two points (1G / 1A) with the Sharks. This season with the Barracuda, Gushchin has 13 points (4G / 9A) in 11 games.

Dellandrea has been a healthy scratch for the Stars' previous three games but will draw back into the lineup Tuesday vs. Arizona as he replaces Sam Steel. The 23-year-old centre has struggled out of the gate this season, with his one assist, nine SOG, two PIMs and -1 plus/minus in nine games played. He returns to his role on line four.

Georgiev allowed six goals on 28 shots before being relieved by Ivan Prosvetov on Saturday but will likely get a chance to redeem himself as the expected starter for the Avalanche on Monday. Georgiev's play has been horrid lately, allowing four or more goals in five of his last seven contests (3-4-0) and losing four of his last five (1-4-0) while posting a .832 SV%. Working in Georgiev's favour is his strong track record against the Seattle Kraken. In his only contest against the Kraken this season, Georgiev saved 37 of 38 shots (.974 SV%) and posted a 1.64 GAA and .925 SV% in three games against them last season (3-0-0).

After playing one game and failing to record a point, Lindblom was placed on the injured reserve with an undisclosed injury. In a corresponding move, the Sharks have recalled Danil Gushchin from the AHL.

Gushchin was the 76th overall pick of the Sharks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. He played his first two NHL games last season, tallying two points (1G / 1A) with the Sharks. This season with the Barracuda, Gushchin has 13 points (4G / 9A) in 11 games. In a corresponding move, Oskar Lindblom was reassigned to the AHL.

Lindblom will finally get the chance to make his season debut in place of Anthony Duclair, who will miss Friday's game with an undisclosed injury. Lindblom was limited to six goals and nine assists across 73 games with the Sharks last season. He'll begin Friday's game skating alongside Nico Sturm and Kevin Labanc on the Sharks' third line.

Lindblom will get his chance with the Sharks after opening the season with the Barracuda of the AHL, tallying two points (1G / 1A) in eight games. Last season, Lindblom had 15 points (6G / 9A) in 73 games with the Sharks.

Georgiev will look to rebound after allowing a season-worst seven goals on 34 shots in a 7-0 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Saturday. Georgiev started the season by saving 109 of 113 shots (.965 SV%) in his first four outings (4-0-0) but has since fallen off a cliff, allowing 22 goals on 145 shots (.848 SV%) in his five games since (2-3-0). The Avalanche have been shut out in three of their last four games (1-3-0) but are still -178 home favourites against a New Jersey Devils team that is expected to be without both of their top two centermen, Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier.

Georgiev finds himself in the midst of a rare two-game losing streak after he allowed three goals on 28 shots (.893 SV%) in his previous start and will take the crease Saturday for a juggernaut battle in Vegas. The 27-year-old has gotten off to a fantastic start in 2023-24, with his 6-2-0 record, .915 SV% and 2.40 GAA. He takes on the red-hot Vegas Golden Knights, who have yet to concede a point in regular time (10-0-1) and are fifth in the NHL in goals per game (3.64).
