Avs trade Justus Annunen and a pick for Scott Wedgewood

It felt like it was just a matter of time until we saw the Avalanche move to add more confidence in the goalie department, and the news broke this morning that they had at least made an effort to do so. Justus Annunen and a 6th-round pick in 2025 is what it took to return the services of 32-year-old Scott Wedgewood, who is starting his 8th season as a pro and has never amassed more starts than he did last season (28) with the Dallas Stars. He secured 16 victories during his 2023-24 campaign with Dallas and appeared a perfectly serviceable backup.
