Avalanche's Alexandar Georgiev: Starting versus Rangers

Georgiev (undisclosed) is slated to face the Rangers at home on Thursday, per Marc Moser of Altitude Sports.

There was some doubt about Georgiev's status as he was not at morning skate, but he's evidently good to go. Georgiev is 37-15-3 this season, but his peripherals are just okay, as he has a 2.82 GAA and a .904 save percentage. He'll have a tough matchup Thursday as the Rangers sit atop the NHL standings with 100 points in 72 games.
