  • 142-67-21 2nd Place
    • Third straight win
      Georgiev allowed one goal on 27 shots in Sunday's 5-1 home win over the Jets.

      Advice: Georgiev allowed a first period goal on the fifth shot of the game but then kicked aside the next 22 shots to keep the Jets off the scoreboard. After a poor performance in game one, Georgiev has only allowed five goals on 77 shots for a .935 save percentage in the last three games. The Avalanche will look to move on to round two when they visit Winnipeg on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 5:10 pm
       
    • Tending twine in Game 4
      Georgiev will protect the home net Sunday in Game 4 against Winnipeg, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Georgiev has stopped 50 of 54 shots over the last two games, winning both following a disastrous showing in Game 1 versus the Jets in which he surrendered seven goals. With a victory in Sunday's contest, the Avalanche would take a 3-1 series lead back to Winnipeg for Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 11:10 am
       
    • Strong effort in overtime loss
      Thompson allowed three goals on 46 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Stars in Game 3.

      Advice: Thompson's performance was a big reason the game got deep into overtime, as he came up with a handful of big saves against a desperate Stars team. It wasn't enough in the end, as Wyatt Johnston closed the scoring with a top-shelf goal in the extra session. Thompson has allowed seven goals on 96 shots while going 2-1 in the first-round series, and it's unlikely this loss will cost him the starting job. Game 4 is Monday in Vegas.

    • Steady in Game 3 win
      Oettinger allowed two goals on 34 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.

      Advice: The two goals came in a span of 3:10 during the second period. Other than that, Oettinger was solid in a game that saw the Stars control the pace of play without faltering late in periods as they had earlier in the series. He's won one of three playoff outings while allowing eight goals on 74 shots in that span. The 25-year-old will need to continue playing well to give the Stars a chance to even the series in Monday's Game 4. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:38 pm
       
    • Guarding goal in Game 3
      Oettinger will protect the road goal in Saturday's Game 3 versus the Golden Knights, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Oettinger lost both of the first two contests of the series in Dallas, allowing six goals on 40 shots. He'll get a chance to right the ship in Game 3, though the Stars' season will be in significant danger if he can't get back in the win column. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:17 pm
       
    • Set to start Saturday
      Thompson is expected to start at home in Game 3 against Dallas on Saturday, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

      Advice: Thompson has helped Vegas win the opening two games of the first-round series by stopping 46 of 50 shots (.920 save percentage). That's part of a larger hot streak in which he's posted a 2.12 GAA and a .925 save percentage over his past 13 appearances. Dallas ranked third offensively in the regular season with 3.59 goals per contest, so the Stars shouldn't be taken lightly, even after being defeated by Vegas twice.

    • Wins Game 3
      Georgiev stopped 22 of 24 shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Jets in Game 3.

      Advice: Georgiev appears to have gotten himself back on track, allowing just four goals on 54 shots over the past two games, both being Avalanche wins. He had a rough second period Friday, but the Avalanche's offense took over in the third. Now that he has consecutive wins for the first time in over a month, there should be less chatter of head coach Jared Bednar switching away from Georgiev going forward. Game 4 is Sunday in Colorado.

    • Gets starting nod Friday
      Georgiev will be between the pipes at home for Game 3 versus Winnipeg on Friday, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Georgiev was downright bad in Game 1 on Sunday, giving up seven goals on 23 shots (.696 save percentage), but he bounced back in Game 2 to even up the best-of-seven series. With Justus Annunen (illness) ready to serve as the backup Friday, a bad performance in Game 3 could see Georgiev relegated to the No. 2 role going forward. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:24 am
       
    • Slips in Game 2
      Oettinger stopped 23 of 25 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 2. The third goal was an empty-netter.

      Advice: Both goals against Oettinger came with less than two minutes left in a period -- Jonathan Marchessault scored at 18:09 of the first and Noah Hanifin's game-winner was at 18:53 of the second. While it was an improvement from Game 1, it still wasn't good enough from Oettinger, who will now likely get the opportunity to try to guide the Stars out of a 2-0 series deficit. Game 3 is Saturday in Vegas. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:25 pm
