Before Monday's poor outing, the 33-year-old Wedgewood was excelling since returning from the Olympic break, posting an outstanding 1.26 GAA and .954 SV% in five appearances (5-0-0), including saving all 10 shots he faced in a relief performance in a 5-4 shootout win over Dallas two weeks ago.

With Mackenzie Blackwood struggling in recent games, Colorado relied a bit more heavily on Wedgewood, who will return to the crease on Monday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The 32-year-old Wedgewood saved 28 of 29 shots (.966 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 5-1 win over the Seattle Kraken. Since returning from the Olympic break, Wedgewood has a dazzling 1.26 GAA and .954 SV% in five appearances (5-0-0). The Avalanche enter Monday's contest as significant -223 home favourites against a Penguins team that will welcome Evgeni Malkin back into the lineup from a five-game suspension.

Mackenzie Blackwood has allowed eight goals on 35 shots (.771 SV%) in his last two games, paving the way for Scott Wedgewood to tend the twine on Thursday against the Seattle Kraken. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been a pleasant surprise for Colorado all season, but has been exceptionally impressive since returning from the Olympic break, posting a stellar 1.33 GAA and .951 SV% in four games (4-0-0). Colorado enters the action on Thursday as sizable -208 road favourites against a Seattle team on a three-game losing streak (0-3-0).

Wedgewood was excellent in his return from the Olympic break, saving 28 of 30 shots (.933 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the Utah Mammoth, and will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks. Dating back to the beginning of January, the 33-year-old Wedgewood has faltered a bit in an otherwise tremendous season, posting a 2.80 GAA and .895 SV% in his last eight games (4-3-1). The Avalanche enter Tuesday's contest as -144 road favourites against a Ducks team on a five-game winning streak.

Wedgewood was sidelined for Colorado's final few games heading into the Olympic break and should be well rested when the team returns to action on Wednesday against the Utah Mammoth. The 33-year-old Wedgewood already has a career-high 20 wins this season and will look to continue his hot hand as the Avalanche will be battling to capture the Presidents' Trophy this season. Despite his immense success this season, Wedgewood was battling adversity in his most recent games, losing four of eight (4-3-1) while posting subpar numbers of 3.10 GAA and .878 SV%. Still, Colorado enters Wednesday's contest as -120 road favourites against Utah.

After serving as Mackenzie Blackwood's backup on Wednesday, Wedgewood will unsurprisingly get the nod for the tail-end of Colorado's back-to-back on Thursday. Wedgewood was unfortunate to be tagged with the loss in his last outing, allowing just a single goal on 17 shots in a shootout loss to the Ducks back on January 21st. Wedgewood has been outstanding when called upon this season, putting up a 20-3-5 record along with a .918 SV% across 30 appearances. The Avalanche enter action on Thursday at -125 on the money line.

Wedgewood was solid in his most recent outing, returning from an 11-day absence, saving 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%) in a 5-2 win over the Washington Capitals. That said, solid outings have become the norm for the 33-year-old Wedgewood, who has a 2.33 GAA and .914 SV% in his last nine games (7-2-0). Colorado enters the action on Wednesday as enormous -309 home favorites against an Anaheim Ducks team on a four-game winning streak.

Wedgewood has been recovering from an ailment and has not played since January 8th, but he will return to the crease on Monday against the Washington Capitals. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been tremendous for Colorado this season, but was amid a rough stretch before his brief hiatus, posting a 3.04 GAA and .890 SV% in his last five games (3-2-0). Still, the Avalanche enter Monday’s contest against the Washington Capitals as significant -200 home favorites.

After a remarkable 31-2-7 start to the season, the Avalanche, for the first time, have gone two games without a point (0-2-0), and hope for a strong performance from Wedgewood to help end their mini-slump. The 33-year-old Wedgewood has been excellent all season, but has shown signs of being human over the past two weeks, allowing three or more goals in four of five games (2-2-0), posting a .876 SV%. He has a 2.20 GAA and .917 SV% in 27 games this season (18-3-4). The Avalanche enter Tuesday's contest as sizable -257 home favorites against an Ottawa Senators team that has lost five of their last seven games (2-4-1).

Wedgewood played well in Colorado's most recent game, saving 23 of 25 shots (.920 SV%), but the team did not offer ample goal support as they fell 2-1 to the Florida Panthers for just their third regulation loss of the season. The 33-year-old Wedgewood already has a career-high 18 wins this season, along with a 2.17 GAA and .918 SV%. The Avalanche enter the action on Tuesday as slight -108 road favorites against a Tampa Bay Lightning team on a seven-game winning streak.
