Blackwood will start on the road versus the Wild on Tuesday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.
Blackwood has won his last four starts, giving up 10 goals on 98 shots in that span. The Wild have scored just 10 goals over their last six games, so even with the Avalanche on the second half of a back-to-back, Blackwood has a favorable matchup.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Wins shinny game over Leafs
Blackwood made 17 saves in a 7-4 win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday.
Since his arrival in Mile High, Blackwood is 18-7-2 with a 2.22 GAA and a .917 save percentage. However, a game of shinny broke out Saturday, and nothing was easy for him or Anthony Stolarz. Blackwood has won four straight games, and with the deadline deals to amp up the team's offense, the netminder may have an easy ride the rest of the way.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Light workload in win
Blackwood stopped 18 of 20 shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Wild.
Blackwood was lightly tested in the win, his fourth in his last five outings. Over that span, he's allowed 12 goals, and he hasn't faced more than 29 shots in any of those games as the Avalanche's defense has stepped up to keep pucks from getting to the net. The 28-year-old is up to 22-16-5 with a 2.49 GAA and a .916 save percentage over 44 appearances. The Avalanche's next game is Tuesday versus the Penguins, followed by Thursday's game against the Sharks and a Saturday showdown with the Maple Leafs. If Blackwood continues to see a large share of the starts, he'll be a strong play in weekly leagues for the week ahead.

The Avalanche are in action Friday at home versus the Wild in a game that has significant weight in the Central Division standings.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Gives up three goals Sunday
Blackwood stopped 22 of 25 shots in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Blues.
Blackwood gave up three unanswered goals in the final 10 minutes of the second period, and that was a hole the Avalanche couldn't get out of.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Reaches 20-win mark
Blackwood stopped 23 of 27 shots in Friday's 5-4 win over the Oilers.
Blackwood played back-to-back games in Alberta, and came away with wins in both. This was a challenging matchup, as expected, but Blackwood held firm in the third period and made Martin Necas' tally with 4:22 left in the frame stand as the game-winner. The 28-year-old Blackwood goes into the 4 Nations Face-Off break a winner in five of his last seven starts, improving to 20-15-5 with a 2.53 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 41 appearances. He won't be on international duty during the break, so he'll have two weeks to rest up before the season resumes with a back-to-back on the road -- the Avalanche visit Nashville on Feb. 22 and St. Louis on Feb. 23.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Going back-to-back
Blackwood will start on the road versus the Oilers on Friday, Conor McGahey of Altitude TV reports.
Blackwood will start both halves of a back-to-back, as the Avalanche apparently don't want Trent Miner facing the Oilers with Scott Wedgewood (upper body) still ailing. Blackwood made 27 saves on 29 shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Flames. The 28-year-old has won four of his last six starts with just 12 goals allowed in that span, though the Oilers' offense is always good to produce a challenge, especially in the second half of a back-to-back.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Holds firm for win
Blackwood stopped 27 of 29 shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Flames.
Blackwood picked up his fourth win in his last six outings, bouncing back from being on the wrong side of a shutout Tuesday in Vancouver. The Avalanche's three-goal second period gave him all the support he needed. The 28-year-old improved to 19-15-5 with a 2.49 GAA and a .917 save percentage through 40 contests overall. The Avalanche are back in action Friday against the Oilers, and it's not yet clear who will start in goal for that game.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Slated to start against Calgary
Blackwood was the first goalie off during Thursday's morning skate, Conor McGahey of Altitude TV reports, indicating that he'll draw the start on the road against Calgary.
Blackwood will draw a sixth consecutive start Thursday, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him get a night off in Edmonton on Friday since it's the second half of a back-to-back set. Blackwood has gone 3-2-0 with a 2.03 GAA and .927 save percentage over his last five starts, a span that includes a pair of shutout wins. The Flames are a favorable opponent, as they're averaging 2.66 goals this season, which is the fifth-worst mark in the NHL.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Loses to Canucks
Blackwood allowed two goals on 30 shots in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to the Canucks. The third goal was an empty-netter.
For the third game in a row, the Avalanche were involved in a shutout, but this was the first time in that stretch it wasn't in their favor. Blackwood still put in a decent performance but didn't get any scoring support. He's won three of his last five outings while allowing 10 goals in that span. For the season, he's 18-15-5 with a 2.50 GAA and a .917 save percentage through 39 appearances. Blackwood will likely start once more before the 4 Nations Face-Off break, either in Calgary on Thursday or in Edmonton on Friday.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Starting again Tuesday
Blackwood will protect the road goal versus the Canucks on Tuesday.
Blackwood has earned a shutout in each of his last two starts, needing just 43 total saves in that span. The 28-year-old looks to be back in a groove after a sluggish second half of January. He'll face a Canucks team that's still looking to find some chemistry after a couple of trades last week, including one that sent J.T. Miller to the Rangers.
