Blackwood offers reliable win equity as Colorado's primary tandem starter
Mackenzie Blackwood enters the season positioned as Colorado's 1A netminder in a tandem arrangement alongside Scott Wedgewood. Following a solid 2025 campaign where he notched 23 wins with a 2.37 GAA over 38 games, the 29-year-old has proven capable of providing stable goaltending behind a high-powered Avalanche squad.
Our season projections forecast a similar workload, projecting Blackwood for 23 wins, 3 shutouts, a 2.50 GAA, and a .904 save percentage across 36 games. While splitting starts with Wedgewood limits his raw volume and save totals compared to true workhorse goalies, his high win conversion makes every start valuable.
Drafting around pick 106 in the mid-to-late rounds, Blackwood is reasonably valued as a dependable G2 in 10-to-12 team formats. Our data suggests he will comfortably deliver on that draft capital, making him an ideal target for managers prioritizing wins and ratio stability without spending an early pick.
