    Francouz is way better, but Georgiev has the politics, as Eric says.

    I think Georgiev will be the starter. If the Avs were confident in Francouz as the starter, they wouldn't have brought in Georgiev and signed him to that contract.

    Could Francouz eventually overtake Georgiev? I have no idea, but on the Avs Georgiev doesn't have to be stellar. Kuemper was only average last year and he was the starter all season and won the Cup.


    /thread.

    Could Georgiev be upended by the time the season is through? Sure maybe. But going into the season who is the starter isn't a question.

    It won’t take long for the coaching staff to realize they have a much better chance of winning games with Francouz in net. At the end of the day this is a results driven league. Plan accordingly.

    Francouz was the better goalie when Kuemper was in town too, and Grubauer ….. soon we can likely add Georgiev to the list of starters that Francouz was better than….

    this is one of those situations where youre better off having both in season-long limited games played format leagues so it doesnt really matter who starts. if you are in h2h or other volume based formats youre better off avoiding the headache of a running back by comm....sorry goalie by committee setup

    Not a bad start for Georgiev so far. 4 wins in 5 games and a 9.21 save percentage.

    Stood on his head last night in a 44 save win against Shesterkin and the rest of his old team.

    I think Georgiev will be fine. Colorado seems to have a way of making good goalies.

    Yeah, Georgiev has been clearly the better goalie so far.
    He's probably looking at 3/4 or 4/5 starts going forward... his net to lose now.

    yes, to my surprise georgiev has taken the reins early in the season so far. very similar situation to ullmark taking the reins early in boston.

    people love to overrate Francouz but Georgiev was always going to be given every chance to become the #1. thus far it hasn't been a competition

    If they were comfortable 100% in Francouz as their starter then they wouldn't have gone out and got him then signed him as others have said. I think he learned a lot on how to be a good goalie just by playing behind Lundy then Shesterkin. That's got to help him in his overall development. But there is always a chance Francouz takes over the reins for a period, but only because George would need a break or something.

    I can admit when I'm wrong and so far it looks very much like Georgiev will receive the bulk of the starts. It's still early, but it definitely appears like 60 games could be in the cards if he stays healthy and his play doesn't fall off a cliff. I won't anoint him a full on starter yet, but he's on track to seize that status for sure.
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    Anyone watch the 3rd period of the Avs game tonight? Are you still confident that Georgiev will be the starter for the Avs all season?

    I never have been man - I’m with you. Georgiev has always been pretty dicey. They should have started Francouz even in the B2B.

    Georgiev is not perfect, but he has been much better than Francouz so far this season (Francouz is 3 games, 3 losses and a sub .900 save percentage). The entire team has been playing poorly and between roster shake ups in the off season and injuries it might take a bit of time for Colorado to get things back on track.
