During the All-Star break weekend, the NHL normally experiences a slowdown in roster activity. This year, it hasn't been the case with two blockbuster trades that went down. This afternoon, the trend continues as a young promising goaltender has officially hit the waiver wire.
Today, the Colorado Avalanche made a move by placing goaltender Ivan Prosvetov on waivers, as reported by Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman on Twitter.
Aiding the Colorado Avalanche as the backup goaltender, Ivan Prosvetov has posted a 4-3-1 record, with a 3.16 GAA and .895 save percentage in 11 games this season. This role came about due to Pavel Francouz's absence following offseason surgery.
However, Prosvetov's recent waiver has left fans puzzled, with speculation suggesting the potential recall of Justus Annunen. Annunen boasts a 2.65 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 23 appearances with AHL Colorado during the 2023-24 season.
