PHILADELPHIA — Who knows what the management folks running the Russian entry for the upcoming World Championships are thinking, but it would be inexplicable if an invitation to Alexander Georgiev is not forthcoming.

“I have not heard anything,” Georgiev told The Post following his 3-0 shutout of the Flyers on Sunday afternoon. “I would love to play, of course, but with only six days left [in the season], maybe they already decided [not to ask me].”

Georgiev, 7-4-3/.926/2.60 in 14 starts since Feb. 6, was born in Bulgaria before moving with his family to Russia shortly after he was born. He is a dual citizen of both countries. He has represented Russia before in international competition as the No. 1 goaltender for the 2016 World Junior team that captured the silver medal.

Perhaps management would prefer a goaltender who played this season in the KHL. Maybe a fellow by the name of Igor Shesterkin, who got the starting job back from another possible contender, Magnus Hellberg, for SKA in Game 2 of the conference finals after serving as backup for a half-dozen matches.

Ah, Shesterkin, long ago anointed as Henrik Lundqvist’s heir apparent. Now, it is only apparent that Shesterkin will have to beat out Georgiev for a spot on next year’s roster. That presumes, of course, that the 2014, fourth-round draft choice whose KHL contract expires with the end of the playoffs — SKA is down 2-0 in its series — signs with the Rangers and comes to North America next season.

Georgiev and Shesterkin, both 23, were born six weeks apart. Yet a couple of weeks ago, Georgiev told The Post that he had neither ever been on the ice with Shesterkin nor ever had seen him play. That is likely to change this September.

Speaking of that month, this one was played at about the same pace as the exhibition game on Sept. 27 in which Georgiev surrendered two goals in a 4-2 victory. This was the first time in 297 regular-season meetings these teams had ever hooked up with both having been eliminated from the playoffs. And it showed.

The Rangers scored twice within a span of 3:57 late in the first, Pavel Buchnevich finishing a relay from Mika Zibanejad to notch his 11th goal in his last 23 games and 20th overall at 16:25 before Ryan Strome recorded his ninth in the last 14 matches and 18th overall at 19:57. Brady Skjei completed the scoring at 7:39 of the third period.

“Right after I got my 30th [in Boston on Wednesday], I told him I wasn’t going to shoot before he gets his 20th,” said Zibanejad, who did take a shot on Friday but nevertheless retrieved the puck from the back of Carter Hart’s net to present as a memento to Buchnevich. “I’m really happy for him, he’s worked very hard.

“He’s taken another step in his game. It’s fun to see and it’s fun to play with him.”

Buchnevich left the game for good at 3:41 of the third after an open-ice collision with Nolan Patrick, but David Quinn said the winger was fine after having gone through the league’s concussion protocol. The coach, of course, had scratched Buchnevich four times and dropped him in the lineup on a number of occasions through the first four months.

“I’m happy for him no matter how it happen[ed],” Quinn said. “He’s come a long way. He should be able to score 20. He should be able to score 30.”

Georgiev turned back 29 shots in recording his second shutout of the year and of his career, the most threatening James Van Riemsdyk’s breakaway up the gut off a long rebound off Hart’s right pad. Georgiev, on his mark throughout, stood his ground and made the stop seem routine.

No fuss and no muss as applies to No. 40, who has stopped 67 consecutive shots over a shutout streak of 104:58 since David Perron scored for St. Louis at 15:02 of the first period in Friday’s 4-2 New York victory at MSG.

“I’m not counting,” Georgiev said after his team put together consecutive victories for the first time since Jan. 19. “The shutout is nice, but winning is what’s important. The win feels great.”

So would an invitation to the World Championships.
