Blackwood stopped 21 of 23 shots (.913 SV%) in a 5-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks in his last start. Despite his 4-2-0 record, the netminder has struggled this season with a .879 SV% and 2.67 GAA. He draws the tough task of taking on Edmonton, who ranks third in the NHL in goals per game (4.1) and is coming off a 7-4 win over Nashville.
