Alexandar Georgiev gets start in goal in place of Igor Shesterkin

CHICAGO — Rangers goaltender Alexandar Georgiev got his second straight start Tuesday night in place of the injured Igor Shesterkin, and his second straight start against Chicago. And according to coach Gerard Gallant, the team had not decided, as of Tuesday’s morning skate, whether Georgiev would play again Wednesday, when the Rangers return home to Madison Square Garden to host the Colorado Avalanche.

Gallant said he didn’t know much about Adam Huska, the goaltender the Rangers called up from AHL Hartford Saturday to back up for Georgiev when Shesterkin was placed on Injured Reserve with a lower-body injury.
