Blackwood (lower body) will be the backup behind Scott Wedgewood in Tuesday's home game against New Jersey, Bailey Curtis of DNVR Sports reports.
Scouting Report
At 6'4", he takes up a lot of net but is more than just a big body: he is quick for his size and shows good athleticism. His size helps him excel in the traditional butterfly style. He plays the puck well and has quick reactions with his blocker and catching glove. Needs to get more consistent as he moves into the prime of his NHL career.
Long Range Potential: Big, talented goaltender with some upside.
