Avalanche's Joe Cannata: Sent down to minors
Cannata -- who was up with the Avs as an emergency third goalie -- was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Tuesday, TSN reports.
Cannata's promotion was likely to get him some extra work while the Eagles had a few days off before the Calder Cup Playoffs start Friday. The 29-year-old actually spent most of the year with ECHL Utah, where he went 17-18-4 with a .904 save percentage. Set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer, the 2009 sixth-round pick could struggle to secure a two-way deal from an NHL club.

Avalanche's Joe Cannata: Re-signs for one year
Cannata inked a one-year contract with Colorado on Monday.
Considering the team recently acquired Philipp Grubauer, it's unlikely Cannata will make his NHL debut this season -- instead it's likely he'll spend another year developing his game in the minors. In fact, the netminder saw action in just five AHL contests last year, having logged the majority of 2017-18 with ECHL Colorado. With the Eagles, the 28-year-old went 21-5-1 with a .931 save percentage.

Avalanche's Joe Cannata: Placed on waivers
Cannata was waived by the Avalanche on Monday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Cannata -- who split time between the AHL and ECHL last year -- is still looking to make his NHL debut. Suiting up in an NHL contest this season is probably a long shot for the netminder as he will probably spend the 2017-18 campaign with AHL San Antonio, where he will compete with Spencer Martin for ice time.

Avalanche's Joe Cannata: Staying in the Mile High City
Cannata signed a one-year, two-way contract with Colorado on Saturday.
Cannata split time between the AHL and ECHL last season -- suiting up in a total of 31 contests and posting a combined 16-8-1 record. The 27-year-old is still looking to make his NHL debut, something that is unlikely to occur this season given the quality of the netminders ahead of him in the Avs organization.

Avalanche's Joe Cannata: Dealt to Colorado
Cannata was traded from the Capitals to the Avalanche on Wednesday in exchange for defenseman Cody Corbett.
Washington acquired goaltending prospect Pheonix Copley earlier in the week, so the team likely felt the need to get some value out of Cannata before the trade deadline. Despite a solid 11-5-1 record, Cannata's numbers have been far from outstanding this year -- he shows an .876 save percentage and a 3.22 GAA through 22 total appearances. Even so, the 27-year-old will have a better chance to excel in the Colorado system, as his new franchise currently lacks a clear goaltender of the future.

Capitals' Joe Cannata: Placed on waivers
Cannata was waived by Washington for the purpose of reassignment Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Cannata has yet to make his NHL debut, and it appears he will have to wait a little bit longer, as he appears destined for the minors after hitting the waiver wire. The Merrimack College product spent the 2015-16 season with AHL Utica, where he logged a 2.52 GAA and a pair of shutouts. Barring injury, the Caps are unlikely to call up the netminder this season, severely limiting his fantasy value.

Canucks' Joe Cannata: Reassigned to AHL
Cannata was reassigned to AHL Utica on Thursday.
Cannata was recalled on Dec. 22 to serve as Jacob Markstrom's backup while Ryan Miller (muscle cramps) worked his way back from injury. The 26-year-old netminder didn't receive a start in goal during his stay with the big club, and has yet to make his NHL debut. Cannata's demotion Thursday strongly indicates that Miller is ready to return to action.
