Do we… do we have a goalie dilemma right now?

After another strong performance Monday night against visiting Nashville and all of the sudden Alexandar Georgive is looking like a serviceable goalie again.

Who would have thought just a few short days ago that Colorado would have a goaltending conundrum on its hands. It seemed like Justus Annunen had taken over as the team’s No. 1 netminder with far more consistent play between the pipes in his starts. Head coach Jared Bednar has a bit of a different view and gave the nod in the crease to Georgiev for three straight games.
