Scott Wedgewood Solidifies Role as Avalanche Playoff Starter

Scott Wedgewood has evolved from a career backup into a reliable postseason anchor for the Colorado Avalanche. Head coach Jared Bednar has committed to Wedgewood as the primary starter throughout the first round, moving away from a potential platoon with Mackenzie Blackwood. Wedgewood, who describes his mental state as "always on," has provided the team with consistent stability in the crease, earning the coaching staff's full trust during their current playoff push.
