Confirmed with Link: Avs trade Annunen and 2025 6th for Scott Wedgewood (NSH)

Mental issues. Campbell, Georgiev, Elvis and plenty of others

Much like Gibson, the team around him plays a big factor on how bad his numbers have been. Hard to be a really good goalie on a shit team.

It's pretty easy to just spout out numbers like that without context but the truth of the matter is that Annunen is the one that got us back to .500 when George was playing like an ECHL turd and the first chance that Bednar got to bury Annunen after he had a bad start, he threw him under the bus through the media.

I believe that was at the start of November... and then the rest of his appearances after that were no good and no one can dispute that but Jared never threw George the way he did Annunen.

I gave plenty of context. Annunen getting Colorado back to .500 earlier this year isn't shining up an .872 SV%.

I don't think Annunen is very good BUT I do think Bednar's leash with him was absurdly short. To the point of it being insane how much he prefers Georgiev.

Annunen had 4 starts above .920, 3 starts between .850-.875, and 2 starts where he was god awful and got pulled.

Georgiev has had 4 starts above .920, 5 starts between .850-.875, and 5 starts where he has been below .85p to downright horrible in the .600s.

One guy got absolutely torn to shreds by his head coach in games following poor play, even after wins like against Ottawa.

The other guy has consistently heard from his coach post game that "Georgie is our guy" and "I like how Georgie battled."

It's a clear double standard that Jared has and I just don't get it. Georgiev isn't some franchise goalie who needs that level of coddling.

I think Cmac and the team has accepted the faith, that we rise and die with George and Nuke. It's Mission Impossible but we wish for the best and it's probably the best approach we have with the limited cap we have.

That's how it feels like.

My opinion:

We will never win the Stanley Cup as long as George plays any significant role. Nuke is a player we probably just have to gamble with, because he is very tough to replace, we like him or not. Georges level shouldn't be hard to replace or improve.

Then our GM should be fired on the spot.

Its his f***ing job to do something about that und solve this bullshit. The writting is on the wall since last season.

And no, our "Mission Impossible" is still not Nuke or Georgie.... This team is always injured to a point it becomes comical. Thats why we never win another cup. On top our captain is nowhere to be seen since weeks....

Its a shame that this franchise and GM wasts the prime years of 3 of the best 10 players in this league.

CMac has been incredibly foolish with the goalie situation, like dumb as bricks.

Just such a weird situation when the issue is blatantly obvious for everyone to see, but the man refuses to do anything about it and is willing to piss away entire seasons for an otherwise pretty good team.
