SCOTT WEDGEWOOD NEWS

Gets back in win column Wedgewood stopped 27 of 29 shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Wedgewood hadn't won since Nov. 23, going 0-0-2 over three outings in that span while missing some time with a recurring back issue. That injury concern could linger, but he's healthy for now and should continue to put together good performances whenever he's between the pipes. Wedgewood is up to 14-1-4 with a 2.11 GAA and a .920 save percentage over 21 starts. The Avalanche's next game is in Seattle on Tuesday, but head coach Jared Bednar may be looking to get back onto a goalie rotation that would see Mackenzie Blackwood in line for that start. If the rotation is reestablished, Wedgewood is lined up to start Friday at home versus the Jets.

Pulled by concussion spotter Wedgewood was forced to leave the shootout of Tuesday's game versus the Predators after a collision during one of Nashville's attempts, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports.

Impact Given the late nature of the collision, an update on Wedgewood's status won't be available until Wednesday at the earliest. Wedgewood will be in the concussion protocol until he is cleared to play. If he misses time, the Avalanche might have to turn to Isak Posch as a call-up option for Thursday's game versus the Panthers since Trent Miner, who was sent down Sunday, has not yet had an opportunity to play with AHL Colorado since his demotion.

Will suit up Tuesday Wedgewood (back) will suit up for Tuesday's game against the Predators, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports Sunday.

Impact The absence of Wedgewood meant Mackenzie Blackwood started both ends of Colorado's back-to-back over the weekend. The 33-year-old's return means the Avalanche will have both of their goalies available for the team's next game, Tuesday against the Predators. It remains to be seen who will earn the start between the two.

Unavailable for Thursday's game Wedgewood (back) won't be available for Thursday's road game against the Islanders, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Wedgewood was removed from Tuesday's game against the Canucks after his back tightened up, and he'll be unavailable for at least one additional matchup. However, head coach Jared Bednar said that Wedgewood worked out Thursday morning and could return at some point during Colorado's current road trip, which runs through Tuesday. Mackenzie Blackwood will serve as the starting netminder against the Islanders on Thursday, while Trent Miner will be available as the No. 2 option.

Appears to avoid significant injury Wedgewood's back tightened up on him, and that's the reason he was pulled from Tuesday's game versus the Canucks, Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey Now reports.

Impact Wedgewood's exit in the second period came with little warning, but the first-place Avalanche opted to take a cautious approach with a goalie who's been key to their success. Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 11 shots in relief of Wedgewood to earn the win. Wedgewood's injury doesn't appear to be significant at this time, though head coach Jared Bednar didn't confirm the goalie's availability for Thursday versus the Islanders.

Dealing with upper-body injury Wedgewood (upper body) will not return to Tuesday's game versus the Canucks.

Impact It wasn't obvious what caused Wedgewood to leave the game in the middle of the second period, but the team was able to clarify that it was an injury. He stopped 10 of 11 shots before his exit but left with the game tied at 1-1, so he won't get a result. Mackenzie Blackwood took over in goal and will see the bulk of the starts if Wedgewood misses any additional time. The Avalanche are beginning a four-game road trip Thursday versus the Islanders.

Expected to start against Vancouver Wedgewood is slated to draw the home start against the Canucks on Tuesday, per Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports.

Impact Wedgewood had his eight-game winning streak snapped at the hands of the Wild on Friday, but he was hardly at fault in that matchup, as he turned aside 37 of 39 shots in a 3-2 shootout loss. The 33-year-old has been one of the stories of the season, posting a 13-1-3 record with one shutout, a 2.08 GAA and a .921 save percentage through 18 appearances. He has a favorable matchup Tuesday against a 10-13-3 Vancouver squad that has dropped back-to-back games and five of its last six (1-4-1).

DECEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Strong play continues Wedgewood made 35 saves in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Wild on Friday.

Impact Wedgewood had won eight consecutive games prior to Friday, and he remains without a regulation loss in nine (8-0-1). Overall, Wedgewood is 13-1-3 with a .920 save percentage and 2.08 GAA. He's given Mackenzie Blackwood the opportunity to effectively ease out of injury, and he's done it with flair. Wedgewood will continue to be a solid fantasy contributor. He's too good to not.
