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

Plays third period in loss

GNashville Predators

April 2, 2025

Annunen stopped 10 of 11 shots in relief of Juuse Saros in Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.

ANALYSIS
Annunen was tagged in for the third period after Saros allowed three goals over the final eight minutes in the middle frame, turning a close game into a blowout. The 25-year-old Annunen gave up the third goal of Kirill Marchenko's hat trick, but that was the only blemish on his performance. Annunen remains at 14-13-1 with a 2.98 GAA and an .891 save percentage over 31 outings this season between the Predators and the Avalanche. Saros has struggled throughout the campaign, so Annunen may see a bit more action down the stretch since the team has nothing but draft position to play for. Both Nashville goalies are best avoided for Thursday's road game in Dallas.

Working in starter's crease

GNashville Predators

March 20, 2025

Annunen took the starter's crease Thursday, Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean reports, indicating he'll likely tend the twine at home against the Ducks.

ANALYSIS
Annunen will likely get the nod versus Anaheim ahead of starter Juuse Saros. The 25-year-old Annunen is coming off a 20-save overtime defeat to the Kings on March 15 in which he conceded just one goal. With an upcoming back-to-back, Annunen and Saros figure to split the crease against the Maple Leafs and Blues on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
