Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Gets little help in loss
Georgiev stopped 30 of 33 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Blue Jackets, with Columbus' final goal getting scored into an empty net.
The Jackets scored twice in the first period due to a few defensive breakdowns by the Sharks, and the offense wasn't able to dig out of the early hole. Georgiev has started four of the last five games, going 1-3-0 with a 2.80 GAA and .914 save percentage, and San Jose may be showcasing the 28-year-old -- he becomes a free agent this summer, and Yaroslav Askarov is the team's goalie of the future -- ahead of the March 7 trade deadline.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Starting against Columbus
Georgiev will tend the twine on the road against Columbus on Thursday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
Georgiev snapped a six-game losing streak Tuesday against Detroit, and he'll attempt to stay hot in his second consecutive start Thursday. The 28-year-old has made eight starts since joining San Jose, going 2-6-0 with a 3.57 GAA and .887 save percentage. He'll have a tough test Thursday, as the Blue Jackets rank fifth in the NHL with 3.36 goals per game.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Gets second win with new team
Georgiev made 25 saves in a 6-3 win over Detroit on Tuesday.
It was just his second win in eight starts in San Jose. Georgiev has been a workhorse over the past few years, but the wheels have come completely off his game. He's 10-13-0 in 25 starts with a combined 3.44 GAA and .879 save percentage. Start Georgiev at your own peril.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: In goal against Detroit
Georgiev will protect the road crease Tuesday against the Red Wings, according to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.
Georgiev allowed less than three goals in a game in Friday's 2-1 loss to Utah for the first time since Dec. 7. The 28-year-old is mired in a six-game losing streak, and it won't get any easier against one of the hottest teams in the NHL on Tuesday. Detroit has won seven consecutive games and has lost only once since Todd McLellan took over as head coach Dec. 27.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Loses it late Friday
Georgiev gave up two goals on 26 shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to Utah.
Georgiev's losing streak reached six games Friday, but this was his best performance during the skid. The 28-year-old gave up a goal to Barrett Hayton with 1:32 left in the third period, which was the difference. Georgiev is now 9-13-0 with a 3.46 GAA and an .878 save percentage over 25 appearances this season. Yaroslav Askarov is set to start at home versus the Wild on Saturday, and Georgiev could find himself on the bench more often until he gets back into the win column.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Starting in Utah
Georgiev will be between the visiting pipes in Utah on Friday, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.
Georgiev won his first start with San Jose after his trade from Colorado in December and promptly lost his next five games. The 28-year-old netminder has ceded his spot as the No. 1 goaltender to Yaroslav Askarov with the Sharks. Georgiev is 9-12-0 in 24 appearances split between Colorado and Utah, allowing 76 goals on 615 shots (.876 save percentage). Utah is tallying 2.85 goals per game in 2024-25.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Falls to Vegas
Georgiev stopped 38 of 41 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Georgiev watched from the bench for the previous two games as Yaroslav Askarov defeated the Lightning and the Devils. The 28-year-old Georgiev couldn't keep things going for the Sharks, taking his fifth straight loss, though this was the first time he gave up fewer than four goals in that span. The veteran netminder is now 9-12-0 with a 3.53 GAA and an .876 save percentage through 24 appearances. If Askarov keeps playing well, Georgiev could find himself in the backup role and potentially even in danger of being scratched on occasion once Vitek Vanecek (face) is ready to return.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: In net Tuesday
Georgiev will tend the home twine versus the Golden Knights on Tuesday, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.
Georgiev has lost four consecutive games while surrendering at least four goals in each defeat. The 28-year-old posted a 2-4-0 record, .869 save percentage and 4.10 GAA over seven appearances in December. It won't get any easier for the Bulgarian netminder Tuesday against a Vegas team that sits fourth in the NHL with 3.54 goals per game.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Gives up four goals Tuesday
Georgiev stopped 30 of 34 shots in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Flyers.
The Sharks are on an eight-game losing streak, and Georgiev has been between the pipes in four of those contests, posting a 4.36 GAA and a .872 save percentage in that stretch. His numbers have decreased considerably since being traded from the Avalanche to San Jose on Dec. 9. He posted a 3.38 GAA across 18 outings with the Avs, but that number has risen to 4.08 in five appearances with San Jose.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Tending twine Tuesday
Georgiev will patrol the home crease against Philadelphia on Tuesday, according to Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.
Georgiev has surrendered 13 goals on 99 shots during his three-game losing skid. He has a 9-10-0 record with a 3.52 GAA and an .872 save percentage through 22 appearances between San Jose and Colorado this season. Philadelphia has registered 3.03 goals per game in 2024-25.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Falters in third period
Georgiev allowed five goals on 35 shots in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
Georgiev kept the Sharks competitive through two periods, but it all fell apart in the third. Vegas scored twice while shorthanded in a span of 23 seconds to flip the script, and the Sharks couldn't recover, sending Georgiev to his third straight loss. In that span, he's given up 13 goals on 99 shots. He's now 9-10-0 with a 3.52 GAA and an .872 save percentage over 22 appearances between the Sharks and the Avalanche. Georgiev is a clear fade in any moderately tough matchup. Yaroslav Askarov will likely start Saturday's home game versus the Sharks.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Slated starter Friday
Georgiev is set to start at home against Vegas on Friday, according to Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.
Georgiev has a 9-9-0 record, 3.44 GAA and .873 save percentage in 21 appearances between Colorado and San Jose in 2024-25. He's allowed at least three goals in each of his past three games. Vegas ranks fourth in goals per game with 3.50.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Defeated by old teammates
Georgiev stopped 27 of 31 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Avalanche.
It looked like Georgiev might pull off a revenge win for a bit, as the Sharks led 2-1 after two periods. The Avalanche put three past him in the third, including a pair of goals from Joel Kiviranta that showed why Colorado was willing to flip him for Mackenzie Blackwood. Georgiev is now 9-9-0 through 21 appearances including 1-2-0 with 11 goals allowed on 84 shots over his first three starts as a Shark. He's registered a 3.44 GAA and a .873 save percentage this season, and those marks are unlikely to improve much playing behind a young and porous defense. The Sharks have another tough matchup in Edmonton on Saturday.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Between pipes against former team
Georgiev was the first goalie off Thursday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating that he'll draw the start at home against the Avalanche.
Georgiev was traded from Colorado to San Jose last week, and he's posted a 1-1-0 record, 3.52 GAA and .868 save percentage over his first two appearances with his new team. He'll draw the start for the third time in the Sharks' last four games and will face off against his former organization less than two weeks after being traded. Despite his familiarity with the team, the Avalanche could present a tough test Thursday, as they rank ninth in the league with 3.24 goals per game.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Yields four goals in loss
Georgiev stopped 29 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Jets.
The Sharks took a 3-2 lead early in the third period, but Georgiev couldn't make it last. He's now 1-1-0 with seven goals allowed on 53 shots over two starts with the Sharks since he was traded from the Avalanche. He hasn't experienced the full brunt of a defensive meltdown yet, but the results could get ugly if the team in front of him starts leaking shots at a high volume. Georgiev is now 9-8-0 with a 3.40 GAA and an .873 save percentage over 20 outings this season. He could be in line to start against his former team Thursday when the Sharks host the Avalanche -- Vitek Vanecek (head) was hurt on the bench Tuesday and may not be available for the next game.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: In goal versus Winnipeg
Georgiev will be in net for Tuesday's home matchup against the Jets, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.
Georgiev won his first start with San Jose, turning aside 17 of 20 shots in a 4-3 win over the Blues on Dec. 12. Winnipeg has scored 14 goals over its last three games, going 2-0-1 in that span. The Jets rank third in the NHL with 3.66 goals per game.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Wins first game with new club
Georgiev stopped 17 of 20 shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Blues.
Georgiev was acquired in a trade from the Avalanche on Monday, and he registered a road win Thursday in his first appearance with San Jose. The 28-year-old has won his last two starts (one with Colorado), and he'll certainly have a chance to be the Sharks' No. 1 netminder -- Yaroslav Askarov is in the minors and Vitek Vanecek has struggled through the early portion of the 2024-25 campaign. Georgiev is up to a 9-7-0 record, .873 save percentage and 3.36 GAA through 19 total appearances.

Georgiev was traded from the Avalanche to the Sharks on Monday, and he'll make his first appearance in his new uniform on the road Thursday. Over 18 starts with Colorado to begin the year, he went 8-7-0 with a 3.38 GAA and .874 save percentage.

San Jose acquired Georgiev, Nikolai Kovalenko, a 2026 second-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round selection from Colorado on Monday in exchange for Mackenzie Blackwood, Givani Smith and a 2027 fifth-round draft choice.
Georgiev has posted a record of 8-7-0 with a 3.38 GAA and an .874 save percentage in 18 appearances this season. He is eligible for unrestricted free agency at the end of the 2024-25 campaign. If Georgiev continues to struggle with the Sharks, he could get pushed for playing time by Vitek Vanecek.
