Scott Wedgewood Earns Starting Nod Against Penguins

Wedgewood will start in goal at home against the Penguins on Monday. He enters the contest riding a five-game winning streak, during which he has maintained a 1.26 GAA and .954 save percentage. Having appeared in four of the Avalanche's last six games, Wedgewood appears to have secured the starting role over Mackenzie Blackwood. Colorado is expected to continue riding the hot hand as long as he maintains his current level of performance.
