Gets pulled in Game 3 Wedgewood stopped nine of 12 shots in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Wild in Game 3.

Impact Wedgewood will end up wearing the loss for this one after getting pulled early in the second period. Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 12 of 13 shots in relief. Wedgewood is now 6-1 with a 2.45 GAA and a .911 save percentage over seven playoff appearances. His strong play throughout the postseason should count for something, but it's not yet clear which direction head coach Jared Bednar will go for his goalies in Monday's Game 4.

A stunning 9-6 Avalanche win over the Wild turns a defense-first series into a 15-goal frenzy

The Colorado Avalanche and Minnesota Wild began their second-round playoff series with a surprising 9-6 shootout

Wins despite allowing six goals Wedgewood allowed six goals on 36 shots in Sunday's 9-6 win over the Wild in Game 1.

Impact Wedgewood allowed more goals in this game against the Wild than he did in the entire first-round sweep of the Kings (five goals on 101 shots). While the step up in competition is obvious, Wedgewood has had few true duds all season. The 33-year-old has won all five of his postseason outings, and unless he continues to struggle against the Wild, he will have the edge over Mackenzie Blackwood for starts. Game 2 is set for Tuesday in Colorado.
