Justus Annunen - Signs two-year extension Annunen signed a two-year contract extension with Colorado on Tuesday.
Impact Annunen has performed well as Alexandar Georgiev's backup this season. The 24-year-old Annunen has a 5-2-1 record with a 2.38 GAA and a .926 save percentage over eight NHL outings in 2023-24. His new contract is a one-way agreement, which suggests he could occupy the No. 2 role next campaign. Annunen will start Tuesday's home matchup against the Canadiens.

Justus Annunen - Taking on Montreal Annunen is slated to start versus the Canadiens at home Tuesday, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports.
Impact Annunen has been outstanding in the month of March, stringing together three straight wins while posting an impressive 1.67 GAA and .948 save percentage. He'll try to extend his personal winning streak to five games in a favorable home matchup with a Montreal team that's 13-15-8 on the road this year.

Logan O'Connor - Moved to IR O'Connor (hip) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per CapFriendly.
Impact O'Connor will miss the rest of the 2023-24 season, so this is simply a procedural move for Colorado. The 27-year-old had 13 goals and 25 points in 57 games this season.

Alexandar Georgiev - Secures overtime win Georgiev gave up four goals on 34 shots in a 5-4 overtime win over the Penguins on Sunday.
Impact Georgiev is riding a six-game winning streak during which he posted a 2.12 GAA and .924 save percentage. The netminder leads the league with 37 wins this season, but his mediocre 2.82 GAA and .902 save percentage put a dent in his Vezina Trophy chances. Georgiev has been starting two of every three contests in March, so he could be on the bench against Montreal on Tuesday.

Jonathan Drouin Completes The Comeback 🔥

Devon Toews - Logs two assists in win Toews had two assists, three shots on net, one block and two penalty minutes in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win against the Penguins.
Impact Toews led two offensive-zone entries that led to both third-period goals, setting up overtime where the Avalanche completed a comeback from a 4-0 deficit. The assists snapped a three-game pointless run for Toews, who is up to 42 points through 71 games. A third consecutive 50-point season is a possibility.

Yakov Trenin - Scores first as an Av Trenin scored a goal on his lone shot in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win against Pittsburgh.
Impact Trenin potted his first in an Avalanche jersey late in the second period, closing the gap to 4-2. With Colorado buzzing and having just hit the crossbar, Brandon Duhaime's shot caromed of Trenin and under the arm of Alex Nedeljkovic. That late tally spurred a frantic third period in which the Avs scored twice then went on to win in overtime. Trenin, who was acquired from Nashville at the trade deadline, is skating on the fourth line and averaging two minutes fewer TOI in Colorado.

Sean Walker - Begins frantic comeback Walker scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots and delivered one hit in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win against the Penguins.
Impact Walker began Colorado's improbable comeback from a 4-0 deficit when he beat a screened Alex Nedeljkovic late in the second period. It was Walker's third goal in seven games since being acquired from the Flyers at the trade deadline.
MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE
Nathan MacKinnon - Sets Avalanche record MacKinnon logged a goal, two assists, six shots on net and one hit in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over Pittsburgh.
Impact Colorado's comeback from a 4-0 deficit began with the support cast and was finished by its stars. MacKinnon had a goal and an assist in the third period, helping to set up OT, then had a hand in Jonathan Drouin's winner 54 seconds into the extra period. The three-point night for MacKinnon upped his season total to 122 points, passing Joe Sakic (120) for points scored in a season by a member of the Avalanche. Next up is the franchise record of 139 set by Peter Stastny as a member of the Quebec Nordiques in the 1981-82 season.

Jonathan Drouin - Pivotal in comeback win Drouin scored two goals and assisted on another in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Penguins. He added three shots and two blocks to his line.
Impact It's hard to call any one member of the Avalanche the hero in erasing Pittsburgh's 4-0 lead midway through the second period, but Drouin's efforts were as important as anyone. He had a hand in the final three goals, including potting the game-winner just 54 seconds into overtime. It was the third straight game with multiple points for the forward, who has 14 over the last 11 contests.
