Nov. 19, 2024 Annunen turned aside 24 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Flyers. - The Avs seemed to have the game well in hand when Casey Mittelstadt gave them a 3-0 lead midway through the third period, but Annunen has to withstand a furious comeback attempt by the Flyers over the final 10 minutes. The 24-year-old goalie is 6-3-0 through 10 appearances this season with a 2.81 GAA and .886 save percentage, and Annunen figures to see a heavy workload while Alexandar Georgiev (upper body) is on IR.

He has a 4-1-0 record with a 2.47 GAA and a .905 save percentage through six outings this season. Nashville sits 30th in the league with 2.40 goals per game despite averaging the most shots on goal per game (35.0) in 2024-25. None
Oct. 30, 2024 Annunen will be a healthy scratch for Wednesday's home game against Tampa Bay, per Corey Masisak of The Denver Post. - Kaapo Kahkonen is getting the start Wednesday, while Alexandar Georgiev will serve as the backup. Annunen has a 4-1-0 record, 2.47 GAA and .905 save percentage across six appearances this season. This likely isn't a sign that he has fallen out of favor with head coach Jared Bednar. Instead, this is more of a byproduct of the Avalanche having three goaltenders on their roster. None
Oct. 27, 2024 Annunen will guard the home net Sunday against Ottawa, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports. - It'll be the fourth straight start for Annunen, who's gone 3-0-0 with a .949 save percentage in his previous three outings.

Oct. 24, 2024 Annunen will protect the visiting goal in Utah on Thursday, per Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette. - Annunen will get another chance to wrest the No. 1 job in Colorado from Alexandar Georgiev when the Avalanche take on Utah. Annunen is 2-1-0 with a 2.46 GAA and a .900 save percentage in four appearances this season, much better than Georgiev's 1-3-0 record with a 4.98 GAA and an .810 save percentage in five games. Utah has lit the lamp on 22 occasions over seven games this season. None
Oct. 23, 2024 Annunen turned aside 25 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 victory over Seattle. - Annunen has now won consecutive games, and he's likely earned himself a larger share of the netminding workload as a result of Alexandar Georgiev's early-season struggles. Annunen has posted a 2-1-0 record, .900 save percentage and 2.45 GAA across four appearances. The 24-year-old's next chance to extend his win streak to three will come in a road matchup with Utah on Thursday. None
Oct. 22, 2024 Annunen will protect the road net in Tuesday's game versus the Kraken, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports. - Annunen will be rewarded with a second straight start after giving up just one goal on 26 shots to defeat the Sharks on Sunday.

Oct. 12, 2024 Annunen allowed two goals on 13 shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Blue Jackets. - Annunen was on the hook for the loss after the Avalanche covered the three goals Alexandar Georgiev gave up. The Blue Jackets' sixth tally went into an empty net. While Georgiev has struggled through two starts, Annunen has done poorly in relief, allowing four goals on 17 shots across his two games. Georgiev's salary will give him a long runway to correct things in the NHL, but Annunen faces competition for the backup role after the Avalanche plucked Kaapo Kahkonen off waivers from the Jets earlier in the week. Annunen showed promise last season, so don't expect the Avalanche to make any hasty decisions with the 24-year-old. None
Oct. 10, 2024 Annunen allowed two goals on four shots after replacing Alexandar Georgiev in the third period of Wednesday's 8-4 loss to the Golden Knights. - Annunen could have a chance to be Colorado's No. 1 netminder if Alexandar Georgiev continues to struggle. Georgiev has appeared in at least 62 games in each of the last two seasons and posted a 3.02 GAA and .897 save percentage in 2023-24. Annunen has only 19 regular-season games of NHL experience, but he sports a career record of 10-5-2 with a 2.68 GAA and a .911 save percentage. None
Oct. 3, 2024 Annunen will protect the road goal in Thursday's preseason game versus the Golden Knights, per the NHL media site. - Annunen has had mediocre results this preseason, allowing six goals on 52 shots over two appearances.

None
Sept. 29, 2024 Annunen will be between the pipes for Sunday's exhibition contest against Utah, according to Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette. - Annunen is making his second start of the preseason -- the 24-year-old turned away 14 of 15 shots in Monday's exhibition loss to Dallas.

Sept. 23, 2024 Annunen will start Monday's home preseason contest against Dallas, according to Evan Rawal of Colorado Hockey Now. - Annunen is firmly entrenched as Colorado's No. 2 goaltender behind Alexandar Georgiev heading into the 2024-25 season. Annunen performed admirably in the same role in 2023-24, posting an 8-4-1 record with a .928 save percentage and a 2.25 GAA in 14 regular-season appearances. None
April 26, 2024 Annunen (illness) will back up Alexandar Georgiev on Friday for Game 3 versus Winnipeg, per Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette. - Annunen missed the first two games of the series with an illness, but he's now feeling well enough to sit on the bench as Georgiev's backup Friday. Annunen went 8-4-1 with a 2.25 GAA and a .928 save percentage in 14 regular-season appearances. None
April 23, 2024 Annunen (illness) will not be in the lineup versus Winnipeg on Tuesday, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports. - Annunen probably had a decent chance to start Game 2 but his continued illness will see him once again missing from the bench. In the meantime, Ivan Prosvetov will serve as the No. 2 option behind Alexandar Georgiev against the Jets on Tuesday. If Georgiev struggles again, after giving up seven goals on 23 shots in Game 1, Annunen could challenge for the starting gig if healthy enough to play in Game 3 on Friday. None
April 22, 2024 Annunen (illness) was not at practice Monday, John Lu of TSN reports, raising doubts regarding his availability against Winnipeg for Game 2 on Tuesday. - If Annunen were 100 percent, there is certainly a chance he would be between the pipes for Game 2 after starter Alexandar Georgiev gave up seven goals on 23 shots versus the Jets on Sunday. If Annunen can't at least serve as the backup Tuesday, look for Arvid Holm to dress as the No. 2 option behind Georgiev. None
April 21, 2024 Annunen (illness) will not dress Sunday against the Jets, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Arvid Holm will replace Annunen as Alexandar Georgiev's backup.

The 24-year-old netminder went 4-2-0 in his final seven games, posting a .926 save percentage. He'll finish the year 8-4-1 with an impressive .928 save percentage and 2.25 GAA. While Alexandar Georgiev figures to be Colorado's primary starter in the playoffs, Annunen has proven to be a more than capable backup option. None
April 18, 2024 Annunen will defend the home crease versus Edmonton on Thursday, Ryan Boulding of NHL.com reports. - Annunen will get the final start of the regular season Thursday, paving the way for Alexandar Georgiev to play all, if not the majority of the playoff games.

April 14, 2024 Annunen stopped eight of 11 shots after replacing Alexandar Georgiev late in the first period of Saturday's 7-0 loss to the Jets. - The 24-year-old backup netminder didn't have much more success than Georgiev did as the Avs sleepwalked their way through the afternoon contest. Annunen has been playing better that Colorado's starter of late though, going 4-2-0 in seven outings over the last month with a 2.36 GAA and .921 save percentage, and coach Jared Bednar could have a tough decision to make in the crease when the playoffs begin. None

March 12, 2024 Annunen will guard the cage against the Flames on the road Tuesday, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports. - Annunen hasn't suffered a regulation defeat in his last three outings, though he has only logged six NHL games this season. During that trio of contests, the-year-old netminder is 2-0-1 with a 0.65 GAA and .978 save percentage. Despite rumors of a goalie acquisition, the Avs stuck with Annunen as their No. 2 option behind Alexandar Georgiev the rest of the way. None
March 8, 2024 Annunen is dealing with an illness ahead of Friday's game versus Minnesota, Ryan Boulding of NHL.com reports. - If Annunen is unable to dress against the Wild, the Avalanche will presumably need to promote a netminder from the minors to serve as Alexandar Georgiev's backup Friday. Confirmation on Annunen's status versus Minnesota may not surface until Colorado takes the ice for pregame warmups. None
March 4, 2024 Annunen is on track to start between the pipes in Monday's home game versus the Blackhawks, Evan Rawal of Colorado Hockey Now reports. - Annunen was unbeatable in his last start Thursday against the Blackhawks, stopping all 24 shots he faced en route to a 5-0 road victory and his first career NHL shutout. He'll attempt to secure a second straight win over the same Chicago team in what will be a highly-favorable home matchup -- Chicago has been awful on the road this year, going 4-24-1. None
March 1, 2024 Annunen stopped 24 shots in Thursday's 5-0 shutout win over the Blackhawks. - It's the first career shutout for the 23-year-old Annunen as he picked up his second win of the season, his first since Jan. 16.

Feb. 29, 2024 Annunen will protect the road net in Chicago on Thursday, according to Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports. - Annunen will get his fifth start of the season. He has faced at least 30 shots in each of his four previous starts. He was at his best a week ago, making 28 saves in a 2-1 loss in Detroit. He will face the Blackhawks, who are averaging 26.4 shots on goal, 31st in the NHL. None
Feb. 23, 2024 Annunen turned aside 28 shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Red Wings. - The 23-year-old netminder took a shutout into the third period, but Dylan Larkin beat him from the low slot on a Detroit power play midway through the final frame before Patrick Kane ripped home the OT winner. It was Annunen's best effort in four starts since being recalled from AHL Colorado in mid-January, but his .898 save percentage with the Avs represents no threat to Alexandar Georgiev's playing time. None
Feb. 22, 2024 Annunen will protect the road goal versus the Red Wings on Thursday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Annunen will get his first start in a week. He's allowed four goals in each of his three NHL appearances this season, going 1-2-0. The 23-year-old is a risky fantasy play since the Red Wings have scored 20 goals over their last six games despite going just 3-2-1 in that span. None
Feb. 15, 2024 Annunen is slated to start on the road versus the Lightning on Thursday, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports. - Annunen hasn't played since Feb. 6, when he surrendered four goals on 30 shots en route to a 5-3 loss to New Jersey. He'll try to earn his second win of the season in a rough road matchup with a Tampa Bay team that's 17-5-3 at home this year. None
Feb. 6, 2024 Annunen will protect the road net versus the Devils on Tuesday, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports. - Annunen will make his second appearance at the NHL level this season. His previous outing was Jan. 16 in a 7-4 win over the Senators.

Feb. 3, 2024 Annunen was summoned from AHL Colorado on Saturday. - Annunen has a 2.65 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 23 AHL contests this season. He's also appeared in a game with the Avalanche on Jan. 16, stopping 36 of 40 shots en route to a 7-4 victory over Ottawa. Colorado waived Ivan Prosvetov in a corresponding move, opening the door to Annunen serving as the Avalanche's backup goaltender behind Alexandar Georgiev. None
Jan. 19, 2024 Annunen was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Friday. - Annunen made his first NHL start of the campaign, saving 36 of 40 shots en route to a 7-4 victory over Ottawa on Tuesday. He got the opportunity despite Alexandar Georgiev and Ivan Prosvetov both being healthy, though Georgiev started Monday, which is why he wasn't in net against the Senators. With Annunen returning to the minors, Prosvetov will regain his role as the Avalanche's No. 2 goaltender. None
Jan. 17, 2024 Annunen made 36 saves in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Senators. - Promoted from AHL Colorado over the weekend, Annunen made his first start of the season at the NHL level and looked shaky early, falling into a 4-2 hole midway through the second period. The 23-year-old rallied after that and shut the door on the Sens while the Avs offense got rolling. Ivan Prosvetov has been the backup to Alexandar Georgiev so far in 2023-24, but Prosvetov's 3.16 GAA and .895 save percentage in 11 outings could leave him vulnerable to Annunen taking his job. None
Jan. 16, 2024 Annunen will defend the road net against the Senators on Tuesday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. - Annunen has a 2-1-1 record with a 3.92 GAA and an .859 save percentage in four career NHL appearances.

None
Jan. 13, 2024 Annunen was called up from AHL Colorado on Saturday. - Alexandar Georgiev and Ivan Prosvetov are both healthy, but the Avalanche want a third goaltender as an insurance policy ahead of their road games in Montreal on Monday and Ottawa on Tuesday, according to Corey Masisak of The Denver Post. Annunen has a 2.62 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 18 AHL outings with the Eagles in 2023-24. None
Oct. 16, 2023 Annunen was loaned to AHL Colorado on Monday. - Annunen suited up as Alexandar Georgiev's backup in each of the first two games of the 2023-24 season. If the 23-year-old Annunen isn't called back up in the near future, Ivan Prosvetov will be the No. 2 goalie for the Avalanche. None
Oct. 10, 2023 Annunen was recalled by the Avalanche on Tuesday. - Annunen may stick with the big club as a third netminder during the team's season-opening three-game road trip. Annunen drew into two NHL contests last year, going 1-1-0 while posting a sub-par 3.59 GAA and .854 save percentage. None
Oct. 9, 2023 Annunen was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Monday, per Corey Masisak of The Denver Post. - Ivan Prosvetov, who was claimed off waivers from Arizona on Monday, will go into the 2023-24 season as Alexandar Georgiev's backup. Annunen posted a 22-10-8 record with a 2.55 GAA and a .916 save percentage in 41 AHL contests last campaign. None
Oct. 4, 2023 Annunen stopped 27 of 29 shots faced in Tuesday's 3-1 preseason loss to Dallas. - Annunen made his fourth appearance in five preseason games and played his second full game. The Avalanche are giving him a lot of exposure, as the club is expected to be without projected backup goalie Pavel Francouz (groin) to start the regular season. Colorado head coach Jared Bednar will decide if Annunen, who has a .915 save percentage during preseason action, has done enough to earn the backup job early in the regular season. None
Sept. 29, 2023 Annunen stopped 31 of 34 shots in Thursday's 4-2 preseason loss to the Wild. - As it stands now, Annunen is Colorado's backup goalie, as Pavel Francouz (groin) is unavailable and on injured reserve. It's unclear if Annunen, who has played four NHL games, will enter the regular season as the No. 2. A few factors are at play, including how much time the team expects Francouz to miss, what more established NHL veterans become available, and how the young Finnish goalie performs during the preseason. Annunen has appeared in all three preseason games thus far, allowing five goals while facing 54 shots. None
July 2, 2023 Annunen signed a one-year contract with the Avalanche on Sunday. - Annunen posted a 22-10-8 record with a 2.55 GAA and a .916 save percentage in 41 games with AHL Colorado last season. The 23-year-old netminder also went 1-1-0 with a 3.58 GAA and an .854 save percentage in two NHL outings during the 2022-23 campaign. He will probably spend most of next season in the minors. None

Feb. 28, 2023 Annunen was promoted from AHL Colorado on Tuesday. - Annunen has appeared in just one game for the Avs this season in which he stopped 19 of 20 shots in a win over St. Louis. With an upcoming back-to-back versus Dallas and Seattle on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, it's possible that Annunen could get another look this season. Regardless of who is serving as the No. 2 option in Colorado, Alexandar Georgiev is unlikely to cede the starting job any time soon. None
Feb. 26, 2023 Annunen was loaned to AHL Colorado on Sunday. - Annunen and Jonas Johansson have been sharing the backup duties behind Alexandar Georgiev. The Avalanche will need to recall a goalie from the minors prior to Monday's contest versus Vegas because Pavel Francouz (lower body) isn't expected to be ready to return. None
Feb. 25, 2023 Annuen was recalled from AHL Colorado on Saturday. - Annunen will replace Jonas Johansson as the Avalanche's second goalie, who was reassigned to the AHL in a corresponding move.

He was 16-8-4 with a 2.55 GAA and .912 save percentage in 28 AHL starts before his recall. Annunen will face the Blues, who dealt Ryan O'Reilly and Noel Acciari to Toronto on Friday night. The Blues are averaging 3.13 goals per game, 18th-best in the NHL. None
Feb. 17, 2023 Annunen was recalled from AHL Colorado on Friday. - The move was made as backup Pavel Francouz was injured before Saturday's game versus Florida and he is expected to miss multiple weeks. Annunen is 1-0-1 with a 4.34 GAA and .863 save percentage in NHL action this season, while going 16-8-4 with a 2.55 GAA and .912 save percentage in AHL action. None
Nov. 3, 2022 Annunen was recalled from AHL Colorado on Thursday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports. - The Avalanche are playing a pair of games in Finland and were allowed to recall an emergency goaltender in case of injury, so Annunen has joined the team overseas.

May 31, 2022 Annunen was recalled from AHL Colorado on Tuesday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports. - AHL Colorado was recently knocked out of the Calder Cup playoffs, so Annunen will likely remain with the Avalanche for the rest of their postseason run.

May 18, 2022 Annunen was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Wednesday, per CapFriendly. - The Avalanche continue to juggle Annunen back and forth to the AHL. He's no more than their No. 3 goalie, so he's not expected to be a factor during their second-round playoff series versus the Blues. None
May 10, 2022 Annunen was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Tuesday, Adrian Dater of ColoradoHockeyNow.com reports. - Annunen dressed as the backup for Monday's Game 4 win behind Pavel Francouz. If Darcy Kuemper (eye) needs more time to heal when the next round starts, the 22-year-old could serve as the backup again. None
May 8, 2022 Annunen was recalled from AHL Colorado on Sunday. - Darcy Kuemper left Saturday's Game 3 after getting hit near the eye with a stick. The starting goalie is expected to be alright, but Colorado may opt to rest him in Monday's Game 4, especially since the Avs hold a commanding 3-0 series lead over Nashville. If Kuemper doesn't dress, Annunen would suit up as the backup behind Pavel Francouz. None
April 28, 2022 Annunen was called up from AHL Colorado on Friday. - Annunen's presence on the active roster suggests Darcy Kuemper will remain in Colorado for rest while the Avalanche visit the Wild on Friday. The 22-year-old Annunen has allowed seven goals on 51 shots across two NHL appearances this season, though he'll likely back up Pavel Francouz in the regular-season finale. None
April 23, 2022 Annunen was promoted from AHL Colorado on Saturday. - Annunen's promotion suggests Pavel Francouz may miss time with his head injury. Annunen's gone 1-0-1 while posting an ugly 4.33 GAA and .863 save percentage through two NHL appearances this season. None
Dec. 8, 2021 Annunen was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Wednesday. - Darcy Kuemper (upper body) is set to return to action Wednesday against the Rangers, so the Avalanche are no longer in need of Annunen's services in net. Annunen will likely remain in the minors as long as Darcy Kuemper and Jonas Johansson are healthy. None
Dec. 7, 2021 Annunen made 27 saves in Monday's 7-5 win over the Flyers. - The Avs gave their rookie netminder a 4-1 lead before the first period was out, and while Annunen wasn't exactly sharp the rest of the way, he prevented the Flyers from ever getting level. The win was his first in the NHL, but the 21-year-old will likely return to AHL Colorado once Darcy Kuemper (upper body) is deemed ready to play. None
Dec. 6, 2021 Annunen will defend the cage on the road against the Flyers on Monday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports. - Annunen faced just 19 shots in his NHL debut on Saturday which came in a relief appearance. While the Finnish netminder will get the nod Monday, he figures to be sent back down to AHL Colorado on Darcy Kuemper (upper body) is cleared to play. As such, Annunen shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value the rest of the season. None
Dec. 5, 2021 Annunen stopped 17-of-18 shots in regulation and allowed an overtime goal in Saturday's 6-5 loss to Ottawa. - Annunen made his NHL debut, filling in for the shaky Jonas Johansson early in the second period. The regulation goal came on a Senators' power play, and Brady Tkachuk beat him cleanly during the extra period. Colorado head coach Jared Bednar said primary goalie Darcy Kuemper (upper body) remains day-to-day, per Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now, leaving unknown which goalie will start Monday in Philadelphia. A wrinkle for the decision is Pavel Francouz (ankle), who backstopped AHL Colorado to a 4-0 win Saturday. Any one of four goalies are on the radar for Monday. None
Dec. 1, 2021 Annunen was recalled from AHL Colorado on Wednesday. - Annunen was called up after Darcy Kuemper (upper body) was a late scratch. With the Avalanche playing the second half of a back-to-back Thursday versus the Canadiens, Annunen could be a candidate to start that contest, which would be his NHL debut. None
