Alexandar Georgiev owns the IslandersAlexandar Georgiev has been outstanding in his career against the New York Islanders as he is 7-2-0.
Advice: Not only does Georgiev have a great record against the Islanders, his 1.70 GAA and .944 are also all-world. “I really don’t have an answer to that,’’ Georgiev said when asked about his mastery of the Islanders. “I don’t really check the stats against certain teams — I know the league keeps track of that. But at the same time, it’s a pretty short amount of games that you can compare it to. I just come to play hockey. It’s fun to play in the big rivalry games.’’ This season has not been kind to Georgiev otherwise as he is 6-5-2 record with a 2.84 goals-against average and .903 save percentage. The two teams play Sunday and while Igor Shesterkin is the scheduled starter, you have to wonder why Georgiev is not in the crease.Alexandar Georgiev NYR - G -
Panthers close to signing Nikita GusevThe Florida Panthers are close to signing former New Jersey winger Nikita Gusev according to Chris Johnston of Sportsnet.ca.
Advice: Gusev went through waivers this past week and the Devils decided to terminate his contract, allowing him to become a UFA. Gusev had just a pair of goals and five points in 20 games but the Russian could be motivated for a chance at the Stanley Cup. Stay tuned.Nikita Gusev NJ - LW,RWNA -
Red Wings send Joe Veleno to Grand RapidsThe Detroit Red Wings have sent Joe Veleno to Grand Rapids after his season ended in Malmo of the Swedish League.
Advice: Veleno was taken with the 30th pick in the 2018 Draft by Detroit and stayed in Sweden this season when the NHL returned to action. He had 11 goals and 20 points in 46 games with Malmo and will now finish up the season with Grand Rapids of the AHL unless the Red Wings want to audition him at the NHL level at some point.Joseph Veleno Det - CNA -
Patrik Laine ends goalless drought at 14 gamesPatrik Laine finally ended his goalless drought at 14 games.
Advice: It has been quite the season for the Finnish forward as he was dealt to Columbus, went on a nice scoring streak and then had everything dry up. Laine has 10 goals and 18 points in 34 games this season, his worst campaign in the NHL to date. Hopefully after Saturday's goal, the streaky shooter will be able to go on a hot streak.Patrik Laine Cls - LW,RW -
Teuvo Teravainen still not practicing with CanesTeuvo Teravainen (concussion) is still not practicing with the Hurricanes.
Advice: Teravainen has played only 13 games this season as he has had both COVID and a concussion. It is currently the concussion that is keeping him on the shelf as he has not skated with the team since he last laced up the skates in game action on March 4. That was the only game he has played since February 19 as he attempted to return to the ice too soon. He has two goals and 11 points in 13 games this season.Teuvo Teravainen Car - LW,RWIR
