5. Remember me?
Amid all the hype surrounding the young prince in Igor Shesterkin, it is easy to forget that Alexandar Georgiev once attracted a bucketload of praise.
Well, with Shesterkin out for at least a few weeks after being involved in a car accident on Sunday, Georgiev got his chance to shine and remind people of why he is also the future of Rangers goaltending.
Under seige for most of the game, the 24-year-old stopped 42 of the 45 shots he faced to really frustrate the Islanders.
Georgiev surmounted a bevy of challenges, including allowing the goal that tied the game late in the third period, and he was huge for his team.
He made a plethora of huge saves and the goalie is now 5-3-0 with a .921 Save Percentage and a 2.55 Goals Against Average since Shesterkin made his NHL debut.
Also, Georgiev continues to haunt and slay the Islanders with the netminder now 5-2-0 against the Islanders in his career with a Save Percentage of .934.
It was another hugely impressive outing from Georgiev who gave us a reminder that Shesterkin isn’t the only hot goalie in town.
The future on Broadway looks bright. Very bright indeed.
