Scott Wedgewood - NHL News & Rumors

Gets hook in road loss Wedgewood gave up four goals on nine shots before being replaced by Mackenzie Blackwood midway through the second period of Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Neither goalie found much success in Columbus, but Wedgewood got stuck with the loss after allowing two goals in the first and second frames. Wedgewood hasn't recorded a win since his first start of the season while working as the Avs' No. 2 netminder, going 0-3-1 over his last four outings with a shaky 4.31 GAA and .858 save percentage.

Set to start Tuesday Wedgewood is slated to start Tuesday's road game against Columbus, Colleen Flynn of Mile High Sports reports.

Impact Mackenzie Blackwood has been named the starter for Monday's road matchup against Chicago, so Wedgewood is set to defend the crease in the second half of the back-to-back set. Across Wedgewood's four appearances to begin the 2026-27 campaign, he's gone 1-2-1 with a 3.49 GAA and .889 save percentage.

Gives up six goals in loss Wedgewood allowed six goals on 35 shots in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Predators.

Impact Wedgewood was blitzed by the Predators' power play, which cashed in four times. The 34-year-old goalie hasn't been able to recapture the magic from last year, going 1-2-1 with 14 goals allowed on 126 shots over his first four outings this season. Mackenzie Blackwood continues to be effective in a starting role and should see the majority of the games. Wedgewood will likely be back in the backup role against another one of his former teams when the Avalanche host the Devils on Wednesday.

Facing former squad Sunday Wedgewood will defend the road crease in Sunday's clash against the Predators, per Conor McGahey of Altitude TV.

Impact Wedgewood will look to turn the page after being handed his first regulation loss of the season in Tuesday's matchup in New Jersey. Overall, the 34-year-old netminder has a 1-1-1 record, a 2.65 GAA and a .912 save percentage across three appearances this season. While Mackenzie Blackwood has seen the majority of the opportunities between the pipes to open the season, Wedgewood has proven to be more than capable between the pipes for Colorado over the past two and a half seasons. He'll clash with the Predators on Sunday, who traded Wedgewood to Colorado early in the 2024-25 campaign. He's a strong fantasy option in all formats for Sunday's game.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Allows three goals in loss Wedgewood made 37 saves in a 4-3 loss to the Devils on Tuesday.

Impact He allowed three goals. Wedgewood was pulled for an extra attacker around the three-quarter mark of the third before the Devils popped in the eventual winner. His teammates roared back with two quick goals in the last three-plus minutes to make the score look closer than the game actually was. Wedgewood looked sharp, especially with the heavy volume of shots. But he's still clearly the backup with Mackenzie Blackwood getting the majority of starts. Wedgewood remains a decent option in dailies when he does slot into the paint -- he has a 1-1-1 record with a 2.65 GAA and sharp .912 save percentage.

Starting in New Jersey on Tuesday Wedgewood will defend the road cage against the Devils on Tuesday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

Impact Wedgewood will get the start in the second half of Colorado's back-to-back, as Mackenzie Blackwood got the nod for Monday's game in Philadelphia. Wedgewood is operating as the clear-cut No. netminder to begin the season -- it will be just his third start of the season Tuesday. The Devils are 3-2-0 at home so far this year and have generated 3.13 goals per game, which is tied for 13th in the NHL.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Falls to Stars in shootout Wedgewood allowed two goals on 22 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Stars.

Impact Wedgewood kept the game close, but he was unable to snag the win. He's allowed five goals on 51 shots while going 1-0-1 over two starts to begin the season. Mackenzie Blackwood has operated as the Avalanche's starter in goal this season, and while Wedgewood could likely handle a larger workload, it's unclear if he'll get that opportunity. The Avalanche are set to host the Penguins on Friday, though Wedgewood's next start will likely be during a road back-to-back next week with games in Philadelphia on Monday and in New Jersey on Tuesday.

Tending twine Wednesday Wedgewood will guard the home goal versus the Stars on Wednesday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Wedgewood will handle the second half of the back-to-back after Mackenzie Blackwood won a 3-2 game versus the Stars on Tuesday. The 34-year-old Wedgewood won his only other appearance this season, stopping 26 of 29 shots versus the Flames last Thursday.

OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Gets plenty of support in win Wedgewood stopped 26 of 29 shots in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.

Impact Wedgewood wasn't great in his first start of the year, but the Avalanche gave him plenty of support. The 34-year-old netminder did well with a steady workload in 2025-26, posting a 2.02 GAA and a .921 save percentage over a career-high 45 regular-season games. With Mackenzie Blackwood off to a strong start this year, that kind of consistent playing time may not be available to Wedgewood. Expect Blackwood to be back in the crease Saturday versus the Maple Leafs, though the two goalies should split next week's home-and-home set against the Stars.

In goal Thursday Wedgewood will protect the road goal versus the Flames on Thursday.

Impact Wedgewood will make his first start of the season while the Avalanche wrap up a back-to-back set. Mackenzie Blackwood has looked good while going 2-1-0 with eight goals allowed over his first three starts of the year. If Blackwood continues to start regularly, Wedgewood will have to settle for the backup role, though he's also a fairly reliable goalie in his own right.

OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Strong showing to end preseason Wedgewood made 33 saves in Saturday's 2-0 preseason loss to the Mammoth.

Impact The Avalanche couldn't solve Karel Vejmelka in the other crease, but Wedgewood did what he could to keep his team in the game after allowing two first-period goals, one on the power play. Wedgewood will split the workload in the Colorado crease with Mackenzie Blackwood once again after posting a 31-6-6 record in 45 regular-season appearances last season with a 2.02 GAA and .921 save percentage.

SEPTEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Saturday Wedgewood will defend the road net in Saturday's preseason finale against Utah, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Wedgewood went 31-6-6 with four shutouts, a 2.02 GAA and a .921 save percentage in 45 outings during the 2025-26 regular season. He will compete for starts with Mackenzie Blackwood in the 2026-27 campaign.
