Rolling with Annunen and Holm

Description
Annunen stopped 31 of 34 Wild shots the other night against Kaprizov, Spurgeon, and Zucarello, and the only actual NHL player the Avs iced was JJ, so yeah. Gotta consider he could be ready.

I think we should shore up the defense and Timmins seems like a good option. Considering that he's not passing waivers to us I think we'd have to trade if we want him, and we'd have to send MacDermid now. But, he also probably wouldn't pass waivers so we may as well trade him too.

The4C battle is pretty much between Olofsson and Myers. Given that Myers is waiver exempt I decided to push him back down to the AHL for now.

It’s easier to pass a guy through waivers at the beginning of the season when everybody is sending people down than once the season starts, that’s why I would start the season with Meyers.

I’d love that Timmins/MacDermid trade. That said, I think a big physical PK specialist is probably more of what the Avs are looking for on the bottom pair.

If the Avs ever run a pairing with Jack Johnson and Nate Clurman, I am giving up on this sport.

You never said to play with JJ, Clurman has looked like a fine JJ replacement though

In camp and in preseason game he was solid for what I expected. Was better than Malinski, Hazel, Middleton and Amodt. No the stiffest competition but w.e

I think it's possible this is the plan, they may still look to pick someone up on waivers but I reckon they've taken a good look at Annunen in pre-season and if he'd flopped they'd have gone and got someone for sure. As he's been decent they may well roll with this idea goal tending wise. I'd have no issue with the trade either although as @turtlemountain says, a more physical shut down PK'er might be a better add if they could find one.
