Alex Georgiev is not planning for an increased workload down the stretch, even though that seems likely to happen. Instead, the Rangers’ backup goalie is taking one day at a time — which includes a scheduled start for the Garden match against the Bruins on Wednesday night.
“Hockey is so unpredictable, you can’t plan even one week ahead,” Georgiev said after Tuesday’s practice in Tarrytown. “You have to go day by day.”
Georgiev, 23, spent the 10-day break with AHL Hartford, playing three games. He returned and played the Rangers’ first game out of the break, a 1-0 loss to the Flyers on Jan.
