Nathan MacKinnon scored the decisive goal in a shootout and the Colorado Avalanche beat the Edmonton Oilers 2-1

APRIL 14 • Associated Press

Set to start in Edmonton Wedgewood is starting in Monday's road game against the Oilers.

Impact Wedgewood has rarely faltered in 2025-26, and he has been playing exceptionally well lately, going 4-1-0 with a 1.37 GAA and a .942 save percentage across his last five appearances. Monday's game could be a tough test for Wedgewood, as the Avalanche have already locked up the top spot in the Western Conference, while Edmonton still has plenty to play for -- the Oilers are battling for playoff positioning in the Pacific Division and could end up in a wild-card spot if they lose their last two games of the regular season. Edmonton is 21-14-4 on home ice this season.

Beaten once but stays hot Wedgewood stopped 18 of 19 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blues.

Impact Wedgewood was well on his way to a shutout until Robert Thomas pulled one back for the Blues at the 15:38 mark of the third period. Still, Wedgewood is ending the season on a sizzling note, and this was the fifth time over his last six outings in which he posted a save percentage of at least .930. He's gone 9-2-1 with a 1.54 GAA and a .938 save percentage in 12 outings since the Olympic break, solidfying his status as one of the best goaltenders in the league this season.

Impact The shutout was Wedgewood's third of the season, and the win gave the Avalanche an eight-point lead in the Central Division over their chief rivals, all but locking up the top seed in the NHL playoffs. The 33-year-old journeyman has found a home behind Colorado's stingy defense, and he hasn't given up more than three goals in an outing since the Olympic break, going 8-2-1 over his last 11 starts with an eye-popping 1.59 GAA and .937 save percentage.

For the season, Wedgewood is down to 27-6-6 with a 2.19 GAA and a .916 save percentage over 41 appearances. He's been the better of the Avalanche's two goalies lately, going 6-2-1 over his last nine outings with just 13 goals allowed on 191 shots.

Slated to start Monday Wedgewood is expected to be between the pipes at home versus the Flames on Monday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Wedgewood figures to start two of the Avs' next four outings, as the team is heading into a back-to-back over the weekend. In his last seven outings, the 33-year-old netminder is 5-1-1 with an impressive 1.65 GAA and .936 save percentage.

Looking to get back in win column Wedgewood will start on the road against the Penguins on Tuesday, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Wedgewood has followed up his five-game winning streak with back-to-back defeats. One of those losses came to Pittsburgh last week, as Wedgewood was pulled after allowing three goals on just five shots in a 7-2 defeat. Overall, it's been a solid campaign for the 33-year-old, who is 25-5-6 with a 2.19 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 38 outings. Wedgwood and Mackenzie Blackwood are seemingly still competing for the No. 1 netminding gig ahead of the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs, as neither player has taken the reigns as the clear-cut starter.

MARCH 24 • ROTOWIRE

Falls to Stars in shootout Wedgewood stopped 17 of 18 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Stars.

Impact Wedgewood picked up a relief win over the Stars on March 6, but he wasn't able to pull off a second victory over his former team. The 33-year-old netminder still put up a pretty good effort, allowing just a Jason Robertson tally in regulation before giving up the lone goal in the shootout. Wedgewood slipped to 26-5-6 with a 2.19 GAA and a .916 save percentage across 38 appearances this season. Wedgewood has started four of the last six games, so he has a slight edge over Mackenzie Blackwood for the top job between the pipes. The Avalanche begin a road trip in Chicago on Friday.
