Blackwood stopped 49 of 52 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Panthers.
Blackwood returned to a starting role after a relief appearance Thursday in which he gave up three goals in an 8-1 loss to Tampa Bay. The 27-year-old had won his last two starts against Seattle and Washington but couldn't keep that streak alive despite making a season-high 49 saves -- only the second time he's made more than 40 saves in a game. Despite losing Saturday, Blackwood has looked solid of late. Even when factoring in the relief appearance against the Lightning on Thursday, he's 2-1-0 with a 2.48 GAA and a .936 save percentage in his last four contests.
