Since the end of last season, critics have insisted that Wedgewood’s career resurgence was a mirage and that, sooner or later, he would deliver the kind of disastrous performance that would drag him back to the form he showed in his early years with the now-defunct Arizona Coyotes and the New Jersey Devils. But what can anyone say about him now?
Let’s not forget that Winnipeg Jets starter Connor Hellebuyck is the reigning recipient of the Hart Memorial Trophy, recognized as the most valuable player in the entire league for the 2024–25 season. Yet at this moment, Scott Wedgewood isn’t merely outperforming Hellebuyck in every meaningful category; he sits atop the entire NHL in all of them — wins, goals against average, and save percentage. Even more striking is the fact that several goaltenders across the league have logged more starts than Wedgewood this season and still do not have even half his number of victories.
