Mackenzie Blackwood Backstops Devils To Shootout Victory
5 years agoNew Jersey Devils goaltender Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 32 of the 33 shots that came his way during Tuesday's 2-1 shootout victory over the Winnipeg Jets. He did not allow a goal in the shootout. Blackwood now owns a 4-2-3 record to go along with a 2.91 goals-against average and .891 save percentage. The 22-year-old has seemingly grabbed the starting role over the incumbent Corey Schneider. Blackwood is a mid-tier fantasy backup in larger formats. He will likely get the nod in the Devils' next game on Thursday against the Calgary Flames.
