Head coach Don Granato claimed "He won't be out long" in reference to 21-year-old Jack Quinn being left out of the lineup Tuesday. The 2020 No.8 overall pick has struggled to find ice time early on this season averaging 10:29 TOI through his first two games while putting up zero points.
Timmins suffered an upper-body injury in Boston on Saturday and did not return. Timmins is listed as day-to-day, so he is not expected to play Monday in Toronto. Expect Patrik Nemeth to replace him.
Georgiev will likely start Monday as the Avalanche head to Minnesota for a battle of Central division rivals. Georgiev had a shakey first start in Colorado's opening night 5-2 win over Chicago, allowing two goals on 17 shots while ultimately securing the victory. He will be looking to add another victory to the win column as he battles Pavel Francouz for starts all season in the Avalanche crease.
Timmins has had an atrocious time trying to stay healthy since being drafted No.32 overall in 2017. Last season he was limited to just six games and is hurt just two games in 2022-23. Consider him questionable to play Monday until the Coyotes provide more details on his status.
Georgiev will get his first start as a member of the Stanley Cup-winning Colorado Avalanche Wednesday in Chicago.

The 26-year-old will be looking to prove he deserves the fantasy-rich number-one spot in Colorado after posting a .898 SV% while backing up with the Rangers in 2021-22.

Samuelsson gets a huge extension despite only appearing in 52 NHL games over the last two seasons. The 2018 No.32 overall pick had 10 assists in 42 games last season and projects to be a huge part of the Sabres' blueline this season, skating with Rasmussen Dahlin at 5v5.
