Mackenzie Blackwood made his season debut, returning from a lower-body injury, in Colorado's most recent outing, but the team will err on the side of caution, returning to Wedgewood on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 33-year-old Wedgewood was solid in his last contest, saving 21 of 23 shots (.913 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights. He has a 2.53 GAA and .900 SV% in 11 games this season (7-1-2). Colorado enters Tuesday's contest as -142 home favorites against a red-hot Tampa Bay team riding a five-game winning streak.

On the front end of a back-to-back, Wedgewood will return to the crease on Friday against the Vegas Golden Knights. After a tremendous start to the season, Wedgewood has cooled off lately, and should settle into a less active roll with Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) set to return on Saturday. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has a 2.59 GAA and .899 SV% in 10 games this season (6-1-2). Colorado enters the action as -115 road favorites.

After an incredible start to the season, filling in for an injured Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) as Colorado's de facto starting netminder, Wedgewood's play has fallen off lately. The 33-year-old Wedgewood is sporting a solid 2.42 GAA and .904 SV% in nine games (5-1-2), but has lost three straight (0-1-2), allowing 11 goals on 52 combined shots (.825 SV%). Colorado will be put to the test on Tuesday, entering their game as -159 home favorites against a New Jersey Devils team leading the league with an 8-1-0 record

Colorado will be put to the test on Tuesday, entering their game as -159 home favorites against a New Jersey Devils team leading the league with an 8-1-0 record.

Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) is nearing a return to the lineup for Colorado, but the team has no reason to deviate from Wedgewood, who has been outstanding filling in as the starting goalie. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been between the pipes for every Colorado game this season, yet to lose in regulation (5-0-2), posting a tremendous 1.84 GAA and .927 SV%. The Avalanche enter the action on Thursday as -129 home favorites against a Carolina Hurricanes team coming off their first loss of the season (5-1-0).

Colorado's de facto starting netminder to open the campaign, Wedgewood has thrived in Mackenzie Blackwood's absence, and he's making an argument to continue seeing substantial playing time even once Blackwood is cleared to return. Wedgewood is yet to be tagged with a regulation loss and leads the league with five wins across his six starts, while also posting an otherworldly .938 SV% and 1.48 GAA. He's a great bet to stay in the win column on Tuesday as the Avalanche enter action at -150 on the money line.

Mackenzie Blackwood is nearing his return, currently on a conditioning stint with the Colorado Eagles (AHL), but Wedgewood remains the option between the pipes for the Avalanche on Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been stellar, posting an impressive 1.72 GAA and .935 SV% in four games (3-0-1). Colorado is a -160 road favorite on Thursday against a Columbus team off to a 1-2-0 start.

An early afternoon contest in Buffalo on Monday will see Wedgewood start for the fourth time in the early season. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been thrust into a starting position with Mackenzie Blackwood continuing to recover from a lower-body injury. Wedgewood has a 1.95 GAA and .925 SV% in three games this season (2-0-1) and is coming off his first loss of the campaign, where he allowed four goals on 22 shots (.818 SV%) in a 5-4 shootout loss to the Dallas Stars. Colorado enters Monday's contest as -174 road favorites against a Buffalo team that has been outscored 7-1 through two games this season (0-2-0).

Colorado has not released a concrete update on Mackenzie Blackwood's lower-body injury, but is comfortable rolling with Wedgewood between the pipes after a strong performance in their season-opening win over the Los Angeles Kings. The 33-year-old Wedgewood saved 24 of 25 shots (.960 SV%) in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings and will hope to replicate that performance on Thursday against the Utah Mammoth. Colorado enters Thursday's contest as -185 home favorites against a Utah team with some dangerous offensive pieces.
