DENVER (AP) — Alexandar Georgiev got out of his own way in order to get out of his own head.
The Colorado goaltender began imagining winning and all the feelings that went along with it. By kicking out the negative thoughts, Georgiev snapped out of his shot-stopping doldrums and helped the Avalanche split games in Winnipeg.
Georgiev’s confident he has regained his confidence heading into Game 3 on Friday night in the Mile High City.
“Have a short memory,” said Georgiev, who allowed two goals in Game 2 after surrendering seven in the series opener against the Jets. “Just try to come with a fresh mind.”
That sort of approach can be applied to Vezina Trophy favorites, too. Winnipeg goaltender Connor Hellebuyck has surrendered 10 goals in the series.
“I never worry about his confidence,” Jets coach Rick Bowness said. “He’s very confident in himself. He knows he’s an elite goalie. He wants the ball. He loves being in there in these big moments.”
