Eligibility
Availability
Scott Wedgewood was stellar in net after starter Alexandar Georgiev was pulled, stopping all 22 shots faced in a 5-4 win over the Sabres.
Fantasy Impact
Wedgewood was able to right the ship after Georgiev put Colorado in a 4-0 hole to the Sabres, allowing the high-powered offense to recover and eventually win. The veteran netminder will look to stabilize the netminding situation despite Georgiev remaining the No. 1 option for now.
Scott Wedgewood stopped 20-of-23 shots during a 4-1 loss to Toronto.
Fantasy Impact
He has made two appearances in goal this season with Dallas with a 1-1 record and seven goals allowed with a .889 SV%.
Scott Wedgewood stopped 28-of-30 shots during a 2-1 loss to Tampa Bay. The Lightning scored the go-ahead goal with under a minute to play in the third period for the victory.
Fantasy Impact

Scott Wedgewood was shelled in net for the Stars Saturday night, allowing five goals on 38 shots faced in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
Fantasy Impact
Wedgewood has been fairly solid despite limited work in the crease for the Stars, allowing less than three goals in three of his last five starts (2-1-2, .924 save percentage). The 30-year-old netminder is clearly behind No. 1 goaltender Jake Oettinger in Dallas, limiting his fantasy value at this point. Wedgewood carries a 3.03 GAA and .910 save percentage in 13 starts (6-4-3) between the pipes so far this season.
Wedgewood came up with some big saves to keep the Coyotes in this game, as his offense was not generating much with only six shots-on-goal through two periods. The goalkeeper definitely outperformed the home teams Filip Gustavsson though, who allowed four goals on 14 shots-faced. The Coyotes came away with a 5-3 victory.
Fantasy Impact
The goalie logged a .930 save-percentage with three goals-allowed in the win. He moves to 10-13-3 with a .910 save-percentage and 3.16 goals-against-average.
