GLENDALE --Scott Wedgewood stopped all 27 shots he faced to earn his second NHL shutout and his first with Arizona on Saturday night, as the Coyotes blanked New Jersey, 5-0, at Gila River Arena.
Wedgewood's victory was extra sweet considering it came against the Devils, the team that drafted him in 2010 and then traded him to Arizona on Oct. 28.
"It means a lot," Wedgewood said. "When you get traded you want to put up a strong effort back to where you came from and show them, not that they made the wrong decision, obviously it's a business, but on a personal level you want to get out there and play well."
