Nashville Predators
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Annunen took an impressive leap in 2023-24, especially when you strip away his first four appearances. Not that they were bad, but what came after was brilliant. Starting Feb. 29, Annunen made 10 appearances, going 7-2-0 with two shutouts and delivering a .942 save percentage. The stats weren't a fluke - in just 14 games overall, he delivered a 13.37 GSAx (goals saved above expected). The next guy on the list was Semyon Varlamov, one of the NHL's best backups. Annunen will be behind Alexandar Georgiev in 2024-25, and he could start 25 games, maybe a few more. Annunen won't replicate the stats from the end of last season, but he will likely give you a lot more than Georgiev in limited time. Dynasty managers take note - he'll be the starter in a few years. This season, Annunen will help you in dailies and when the starter struggles. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a two-year contract extension with the Avalanche in March of 2024. Traded to Nashville in November of 2024.
On wrong side of shutout

March 2, 2025
Annunen stopped 30 of 34 shots in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Rangers.
ANALYSIS
The Rangers had at least one goal in each period, and Jonathan Quick was spectacular in the other goal, leaving Annunen with no help in the loss. This is the fifth straight start where Annunen has allowed four or more goals -- shockingly, he's won two of those games. He's down to a 13-9-0 record with a 3.21 GAA and an .888 save percentage across 24 appearances between the Predators and the Avalanche this season. It'll likely be Juuse Saros between the pipes when Nashville wraps up this three-game road trip in Boston on Tuesday.
