Rangers ink Alexandar Georgiev for two more years

Updated:

The Rangers have signed goaltender Alexandar Georgiev for two more seasons with an AAV of $2.425 million. The 24 year-old goalkeeper is coming off a 17 win season with the Blueshirts last year and will be sharing duties with Igor Shesterkin next season.

I recently wrote that Alexandar Georgiev would settle well before his October 31 hearing date and it has happened. This is fair contract after coming off a three year deal at $792,500 annually.

Alex did struggle late in the season in the three man rotation, but will enter as a 1B to Igor’s 1A in net. Georgiev played 34 games and notched a team leading 17 wins to go with 14 losses and 2 OT losses. His GAA was 3.04 and his SV% .914.

The Rangers now have just a little over $15 million in cap space to sign DeAngelo, Strome, and Lemieux. They can get this done.

Did the Lightning ask Stamkos to waive his no trade?

And how long before someone finally decided to offer sheet Mat Barzal?
