Georgiev stopped 14 of 17 shots in relief during Monday's 8-2 loss to the Lightning.

The 28-year-old entered the ice midway through the first period after Justus Annunen gave up three goals on seven shots in the opening 10 minutes of the game, but Georgiev returned to the bench after allowing three more goals between the first and second frames. Georgiev is widely expected to return to the lineup when the Avs take on the Golden Knights on Wednesday given Annunen's recent struggles. While Georgiev hasn't been ideal either, he's been good enough recently with a 5-1-0 record, 2.62 GAA and .906 save percentage across his past seven outings, even after factoring in Monday's rough relief appearance.
