Nedeljkovic made 30 saves in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Flames. - The 28-year-old netminder took a shutout into the third period, but Nedeljkovic saw it slip away on a Jonathan Huberdeau shot from in close late in the frame. It was the first time since Nov. 2 that Nedeljkovic had allowed fewer than three goals in an appearance, and on the season he carries a 4-4-3 record with a 3.31 GAA and .883 save percentage. |

Nedeljkovic will patrol the home crease Saturday against Calgary, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - During his last outing, Nedeljkovic surrendered six goals on 30 shots in a 6-1 loss to Utah on Nov. 23. He has a 3-4-3 record with a 3.42 GAA and an .877 save percentage through 11 appearances this season. Calgary is tied for 27th in the league with 2.54 goals per game in 2024-25. |

| Nov. 24, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic turned aside 24 shots in Saturday's 6-1 loss to Utah. - Three of the goals against Nedeljkovic came on the power play, and he wasn't getting much help from his defense at even strength, either. The 28-year-old netminder has only one win in his last six appearances, posting a 1-2-2 record over that stretch with a rough 3.99 GAA and .855 save percentage. |

Nedeljkovic will patrol the home crease Saturday against Utah, according to Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - Nedeljkovic will get the second half of Pittsburgh's back-to-back after Tristan Jarry played in Friday's 4-1 loss to Winnipeg. The 28-year-old Nedeljkovic has a 3-3-3 record with a 3.17 GAA and an .886 save percentage through 10 appearances this season. Utah sits 24th in the league with 2.58 goals per game in 2024-25. |
None |
| Nov. 17, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic turned aside 26 shots in regulation and overtime and three of five shootout attempts in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Sharks. - The Penguins held a 3-0 lead early in the second period, but as has been the case too often this season, the defense couldn't stop the opposition from mounting a comeback, and Nedeljkovic needed to come up big just to get the game to OT. It's his first win since Nov. 2, and on the season he's gone 3-3-3 over 10 appearances with a 3.17 GAA and .886 save percentage. Nedeljkovic will likely remain in a timeshare with Tristan Jarry unless one of them heats up and pushes their way into the No. 1 job. |

Nedeljkovic will protect the home net against San Jose on Saturday, per Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site. - Nedeljkovic will get the second half of Pittsburgh's back-to-back after Tristan Jarry played in Friday's 6-2 loss to Columbus. The 28-year-old Nedeljkovic has a 2-3-3 record with a 3.21 GAA and an .884 save percentage through nine appearances this season. San Jose ranks 31st in the league with 2.33 goals per game in 2024-25. |

Nedeljkovic stopped 28 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Red Wings. - Both Detroit goals came less than five minutes apart early in the second period, but the 28-year-old netminder kept his focus and earned the Penguins a point before finally giving up the winner in OT to Simon Edvinsson. Nedeljkovic hasn't recorded a win in four straight appearances, and on the season, he sports a 2-3-3 record in nine outings with a 3.22 GAA and .884 save percentage. Even with Tristan Jarry back in the NHL, Nedeljkovic still seems to have a tenuous hold on the No. 1 job in net for Pittsburgh. |
None |
| Nov. 13, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic is expected to start at home against Detroit on Wednesday, per Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site. - Nedeljkovic has a 2-3-2 record, 3.25 GAA and .882 save percentage in eight appearances in 2024-25. He's struggled recently, allowing 12 goals on 76 shots (.842 save percentage) across his past three outings. However, the Red Wings have also struggled, ranking 30th offensively with 2.43 goals per game. |

| Nov. 12, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic stopped 28 of 32 shots after replacing Joel Blomqvist midway through the first period of Monday's 7-1 loss to the Stars. - The Penguins were never in the game, coughing up six goals in the first period alone, and the switch to Nedeljkovic did nothing to wake them up. The 28-year-old netminder has given up 12 goals in his last three appearances, stumbling to a 4.12 GAA and .842 save percentage over that stretch, and while Pittsburgh's leaky blue line bears a lot of responsibility for that, Nedeljkovic's spot at the top of the depth chart seems shaky at best, especially with Tristan Jarry back in the NHL. |
None |
| Nov. 8, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic made 13 saves in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Hurricanes. - The Penguins out-shot the opposition 36-18 on the night, but they were never really in it after Nedeljkovic allowed two goals in the first nine minutes of the first period. The 28-year-old has seen a heavy workload since Tristan Jarry's demotion, starting seven of Pittsburgh's last nine games, and it could be catching up with Nedeljkovic. On the season, he sports a 2-3-2 record with a 3.07 GAA and .883 save percentage. |

Nedeljovic will patrol the visiting crease versus Carolina on Thursday, according to Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - Nedeljkovic is 2-0-1 in his last three starts, allowing five goals on 75 shots (.933 save percentage). Overall, the 28-year-old is 2-2-2 with a 2.76 GAA and a .900 save percentage. The Hurricanes are third in NHL scoring, averaging 4.09 goals per game. |
None |
| Nov. 6, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic made 23 saves on 26 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Islanders. - Nedeljkovic allowed two goals at even strength and one on the power play. The Ohio native had a brief two-game win streak snapped Tuesday, but he's posted a respectable 2.76 GAA and .900 save percentage to go along with a 2-2-2 record across six appearances this season. The Penguins play a back-to-back set against the Hurricanes and Capitals on Thursday and Friday, respectively, and Nedeljkovic will almost certainly be between the pipes for one of those matchups. |
None |

Nedeljkovic will get the starting nod in Tuesday's road matchup against the Islanders, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - After being held without a win in his first three outings to open the campaign, Nedeljkovic has allowed two goals combined over back-to-back wins against Anaheim and Montreal, respectively. The 28-year-old will take an on Islanders club that ranks 31st in the league with 2.25 goals per game through 12 contests. Nedeljkovic is 2-2-1 with a .903 save percentage and a 2.75 GAA over five appearances. |

Nedeljkovic was the first goaltender off the ice at the morning skate, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports, indicating he will protect the home crease versus Montreal on Saturday. - Nedeljkovic will make his fifth start in seven games as he has taken over the reins as the No. 1 netminder with the Penguins. He was sharp in his last outing, allowing only one goal on 23 shots in a 2-1 overtime win over Anaheim on Thursday. Nedeljkovic is 1-2-1 with a 3.18 GAA and an .890 save percentage this season. The Canadiens have scored 32 goals in 11 games in 2024-25. |

Nedeljkovic stopped 22 of 23 shots in a 2-1 victory over Anaheim on Thursday. - Nedeljkovic put together his strongest performance of the season, giving up a first-period goal to Alex Killorn before closing the door on the Ducks the rest of the way. It was the 28-year-old netminder's first victory of the year, having gone 1-2-1 since returning from a preseason lower-body injury. With Tristan Jarry trying to find his game in the minors, Nedeljkovic should continue to see the bulk of the workload, including Saturday's matchup with Montreal. |
None |
| Oct. 31, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic was the first goaltender off the ice at practice, indicating he will get the home start versus Anaheim on Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports. - Nedeljkovic has yet to pick up a win in three starts, going 0-2-1 with a 3.93 GAA and .874 save percentage. He was good last season when he took over from Tristan Jarry near the end of the season, as Nedeljkovic managed an 18-7-7 record in 38 regular-season appearances. The Ducks are at the bottom of NHL scoring with 21 goals over nine games this season. |

Nedeljkovic stopped 30 of 34 shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks. - The Penguins led 2-0 until the Canucks flipped the script with three goals in a span of 1:05 in the second period. Arshdeep Bains then scored a few minutes later, and that sent the Penguins to a fifth straight loss. Nedeljkovic has been in net for three of them, going 0-2-1 with 12 goals allowed on 95 shots this season. The Penguins' next game is Tuesday at home versus the Wild, and at this point, fantasy managers may want to steer clear of Pittsburgh's crease given the team's overall struggles. |

Nedeljkovic will guard the road goal versus the Canucks on Saturday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - Nedeljkovic unsurprisingly gets this start after Joel Blomqvist stopped 46 of 50 shots Friday versus the Oilers. The 28-year-old Nedeljkovic has gone 0-1-1 with eight goals allowed on 61 shots over his first two outings of the campaign, which makes him a risky option behind a leaky and tired defense. |
None |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports, indicating he'll tend the twine on the road versus Calgary. - Nedeljkovic will look to bounce back from his season debut versus the Jets on Sunday in which he gave up five goals on 36 shots (.861 save percentage). At this point, it's fair to wonder if Tristan Jarry will start at all during the Pens' four-game road trip with Nedeljkovic potentially splitting the back-to-back against the Oilers and Canucks on Friday and Saturday, respectively, with Joel Blomqvist. Regardless, at this point, Nedeljkovic appears to be the No. 1 option for Pittsburgh. |

Nedeljkovic joined his teammates for the Penguins' road trip, which begins Sunday afternoon in Winnipeg, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports. - Nedeljkovic returned to Pittsburgh on Saturday after stopping 33 of 36 shots in a 4-3 win over Lehigh Valley on Friday. The Penguins brought three goalies on the four-game sojourn, which extends to Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver between now and Saturday. Nedeljkovic joined Tristan Jarry and Joel Blomqvist for the trip, and Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan didn't reveal which one will start against the Jets on Sunday. |

Nedeljkovic (lower body) was summoned from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Saturday. - During his lone AHL outing, Nedeljkovic made 33 saves in Friday's 4-3 win over Lehigh Valley. He could be an option for Sunday's road game versus Winnipeg. |
None |
| Oct. 17, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic (lower body) was activated off injured reserve Thursday and reassigned to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on a conditioning assignment. - Nedeljkovic figures to get the starting nod for the Baby Pens against AHL Lehigh Valley either Friday or Saturday (perhaps both) as he works his way back from his lower-body injury. At this point, with Tristan Jarry struggling, Pittsburgh is likely to get Nedeljkovic back into the lineup and could give him some starts during an upcoming four-game Western Canada road trip. Once Nedeljkovic is given the all-clear, Joel Blomqvist will likely be headed for the minors in a corresponding move, despite being the team's best netminder to open the year. |
None |
| Oct. 7, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic (lower body) was designated for injured reserve Monday. - Nedeljkovic was expected to compete alongside Tristan Jarry for the Penguins' No. 1 job but instead will start the year on the shelf. Still, once the 28-year-old backstop is given the all-clear, he should once again challenge Jarry for regular appearances. Fantasy managers should probably anticipate a platoon this year with the hot hand keeping the crease. |

Nedeljkovic (lower body) is considered week-to-week, Rob Rossi of The Athletic reports Wednesday. - If there was a goalie controversy in Pittsburgh heading into Opening Night against the Rangers, Nedeljkovic's lower-body injury certainly puts that to rest. At this point, fantasy managers can expect a heavy dose of Tristan Jarry for the Penguins to open the season. Still, once Nedeljkovic is back to 100 percent, he should continue to push for more opportunities throughout the season -- much like he did last year when he started the final 14 games of the 2023-24 campaign. |
None |

Nedeljkovic (lower body) is still being evaluated by team doctors, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports Tuesday. - The fact that Nedeljkovic is still being assessed doesn't bode well for a short-term absence, though nothing official has come from the team at this point. If there is a significant injury for the 28-year-old backstop, it would clear the way for Tristan Jarry to start the majority of the games to open the 2024-25 campaign. Joel Blomqvist would be the most likely candidate to fill the backup role in Nedeljkovic's absence -- unless the club decides to look to the waiver wire to bolster its goalie room. |

Nedeljkovic will guard the road net Monday in preseason action against the Red Wings, per Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site. - Nedeljkovic played half of Tuesday's 3-2 exhibition loss to Buffalo, allowing three goals on 16 shots. He will play the full contest in Monday's matchup versus Detroit. Nedeljkovic will probably get the chance to compete with Tristan Jarry for starts again during the 2024-25 campaign. |
None |
| Sept. 24, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic will be between the pipes at home versus Buffalo on Tuesday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports. - Nedeljkovic saw action in 38 games for the Penguins last year, including starting 14 straight to close out the season in which he posted an 8-1-3 record, 3.00 GAA and .899 save percentage. Having re-signed with the team for another two years, the 28-year-old netminder still comes into the campaign as the No. 2 option, but clearly, starter Tristan Jarry is on a short leash and Nedeljkovic could play his way into a split share. |
None |
| June 20, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic signed a two-year, $5 million contract with the Penguins on Thursday. - Nedeljkovic had an 18-7-7 record, 2.97 GAA and .902 save percentage in 38 regular-season contests with the Penguins in 2023-24. He was playing on a one-year, $1.5 million contract and could have tested the unrestricted free agent waters this summer. The Penguins also have Tristan Jarry signed through 2027-28, so Pittsburgh will be using the same goaltending duo for the second straight campaign in 2024-25. Nedeljkovic will likely begin the season as the backup netminder, but he has the potential to be utilized more than your typical No. 2, especially after Jarry was something of a mixed bag in 2023-24, finishing with a 2.91 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 51 regular-season outings. |

Nedeljkovic made 27 saves in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Islanders. - Neither team had anything to play for, as the Penguins were already eliminated from the playoffs while the Isles were locked into a first-round series against the Hurricanes, but they still put together a spirited back-and-forth affair. The regulation loss was the first for Nedeljkovic since March 9 -- the 28-year-old took over the starting job for Pittsburgh down the stretch, and over his last 12 outings he went 8-1-2 with a 2.93 GAA and .902 save percentage. He'll be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and he should be able to do better than the one-year, $1.5 million deal he signed with the Pens last July given his late-season performance. |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie to exit the ice ahead of Wednesday's road clash with the Islanders, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports, indicating he'll be guarding the cage. - Nedeljkovic will be making his 13th straight start for the Penguins, which comes as a bit of a surprise considering the Penguins were already eliminated from playoff contention. During that stretch, the 12 games, the 28-year-old backstop is 8-0-3 with a 2.87 GAA but it wasn't enough to force the Penguins into a playoff position. |
None |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff, putting him on track to guard the home goal versus the Predators on Monday. - Nedeljkovic struggled in his last start Saturday against the Bruins, surrendering three goals on just 16 shots before being replaced by Tristan Jarry midway through the second period of the eventual 6-4 defeat. Nedeljkovic will try to get back in the win column and keep the Penguins' playoff hopes alive in a tough home matchup with a Nashville squad that's 24-13-3 on the road this year. |

Nedeljkovic is projected to get the home start versus Boston on Saturday, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. - It will be Nedeljkovic's 11th straight start as he has taken over from Tristan Jarry as the Penguins' No. 1 netminder. Nedeljkovic has gone 7-0-3 with a 2.81 GAA and a .905 save percentage during this stretch, propelling the Penguins back into the playoff race. He will have a tough matchup Saturday, as Boston is atop the Atlantic Division standings, one point ahead of the Panthers. |
None |
| April 12, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic made 25 saves in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Red Wings. - The 28-year-old netminder allowed three separate leads to slip through his fingers, but Nedeljkovic also made some big stops to help the Penguins secure a huge victory. He hasn't lost in regulation since March 9, and over his last 12 outings he's gone 8-0-3 with a 2.78 GAA and .905 save percentage. Pittsburgh sits one point ahead of the Wings, Capitals and Flyers in the race for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. |
None |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie to leave the ice Thursday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus Detroit. - Nedeljkovic will be making his 10th consecutive start, having gone undefeated in regulation in his last nine appearances. During that stretch, the 28-year-old backstop is 6-0-3 with a 2.57 GAA and .913 save percentage. As long as Nedeljkovic stays sharp, he figures to be the preferred choice between the pipes for the Penguins down the stretch and, possibly, into the postseason. |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports, indicating he will defend the road net Monday against the Maple Leafs. - Nedeljkovic is poised to make his ninth consecutive start. He has gone 6-0-2 with a .917 save percentage over his last eight outings. Nedeljkovic has a 16-6-6 record with a 2.82 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 33 appearances this season. Toronto ranks third in the league with 3.62 goals per contest this campaign. |

Nedeljkovic stopped 30 shots in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Lightning. - The Penguins seemed to have the game in hand heading into the third period, but Nedeljkovic saw a 4-1 lead evaporate before Michael Bunting potted the game-winner with a little over five minutes left. Nedeljkovic has won four straight starts and hasn't taken a regulation loss since March 9, going 7-0-2 over his last 10 outings with a 2.52 GAA and .915 save percentage. His late-season surge has not only allowed him to seize the top job in the Pittsburgh crease, it's kept the team's playoff hopes alive -- with Saturday's win, the Pens moved into the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, although the Flyers, Red Wings and Capitals are all within a point in the standings and the latter two have a game in hand. |

Nedeljkovic will patrol the home crease versus Tampa Bay on Saturday. - Nedeljkovic has taken over the reins as the Penguins' No. 1 goaltender from Tristan Jarry. Nedeljkovic will make his eighth straight start after going 5-0-2 in his previous seven contests. He is 15-6-6 with a 2.78 GAA and a .908 save percentage this season. The Lightning will provide Nedeljkovic with all he can handle, as they are 8-1-1 in their last 10 games. |
None |

Nedeljkovic will defend the visiting crease in Washington on Thursday, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. - Nedeljkovic was the first netminder off the ice at practice. He will make his seventh straight start -- going 4-0-2 in his last six games. Nedeljkovic is 14-6-6 with a 2.84 GAA and a .906 save percentage this season. The Capitals average 2.69 goals this season, 28th in the league. |

Nedeljkovic turned aside 23 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Devils. - The Penguins were in a 3-1 hole after two periods, but Nedeljkovic shut the door in the final frame while Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin powered a comeback. Tristan Jarry was out with an illness Tuesday, but he seems to have lost his grip on the No. 1 role anyway -- Nedeljkovic has started six straight games and has gotten Pittsburgh at least one point in all of them, going 4-0-2 with a 2.53 GAA and .915 save percentage. With the Pens sitting three points back of the Capitals for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, expect them to ride Nedeljkovic as far as he can take them. |

Nedeljkovic will tend the twine on the road against New Jersey on Tuesday, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. - Nedeljkovic will take both ends of the Penguins' back-to-back due to the absence of Tristan Jarry (illness). The 28-year-old Nedlejkovic was solid in the first game Monday, stopping 28 of 30 shots in a winning effort versus the Rangers. It will be the sixth consecutive start for Nedeljkovic, having gone undefeated in regulation in the previous five outings (3-0-2). |
None |

Nedeljkovic will be stationed between the pipes for Monday's road game against the Rangers, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - It's unclear if something happened, but Nedeljkovic will get the nod after Tristan Jarry was originally announced as the starter. Nedeljkovic is 3-0-2 with a .917 save percentage over his last seven appearances. Monday's game will be the sixth consecutive contest he's appeared in. The 28-year-old is 12-6-6 with a .906 save percentage this season. |

Nedeljkovic will guard the road cage Saturday against the Blue Jackets, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - It'll be the fifth start in six games for Nedeljkovic in place of a struggling Tristan Jarry. Nedeljkovic has been solid in that span, going 3-0-1 with a .912 save percentage. Overall, the 28-year-old netminder is 12-6-5 on the season with a .905 save percentage and 2.87 GAA. |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie to leave the ice Thursday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus Columbus. - Nedeljkovic will be making his third straight start, coming off a 38-save victory over the Hurricanes on Tuesday. For the year, the 28-year-old Ohio native is sporting an 11-6-5 record to go with a 2.91 GAA and .906 save percentage. A strong finish to the season should help Nedeljkovic's chances of securing a more long-term contract this offseason after playing this year on a one-year deal. |
None |
| March 27, 2024 |
Nedeljkovic turned aside 38 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes. - He had little chance on the one puck that beat him in the second period, as Dmitry Orlov's shot from just above the faceoff circle deflected off a Pittsburgh defender before sneaking past the screened goalie. Nedeljkovic is 2-0-1 over his last three starts and has a 2.45 GAA and .919 save percentage over his last five outings, including two relief appearances. With the Penguins fighting to stay alive in the playoff race, that might be enough to push the 28-year-old ahead of the struggling Tristan Jarry on the Pens' depth chart. |

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff, putting him on track to protect the home goal against the Hurricanes on Tuesday. - Nedeljkovic struggled in his last start Sunday against the Avalanche, surrendering four goals on just 25 shots before being replaced by Tristan Jarry midway through the third period of the eventual 5-4 overtime loss. Nedeljkovic will try to get back in the win column in a tough home matchup with a hot Carolina team that's won six of its last seven contests. |

Nedeljkovic was given the hook after conceding four goals on 25 shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to Colorado. - It's been an underwhelming March for Nedlejkovic, as he is 1-2-1 with a 4.18 GAA and an .843 save percentage over seven appearances. If the 28-year-old netminder could put together a winning streak, he would stand a decent chance of earning more starts down the stretch. At this point, however, Nedeljkovic may only play in back-to-backs given his recent outings. |

Nedeljkovic will defend the road net Sunday versus the Avalanche, per Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - Nedeljkovic made 25 saves in a 6-3 win over Detroit on March 17 during his last start.

Nedeljkovic stopped all three shots he faced after replacing Tristan Jarry early in the third period of Friday's 4-2 loss to the Stars. - It's the third time in March that the 28-year-old netminder has been needed in relief, as Jarry is mired in perhaps the worst stretch of his career at the worst possible time for the Penguins' playoff chances. Unfortunately, Nedeljkovic hasn't played well enough this month to make a real push to take over the starting role, posting a 4.07 GAA and .843 save percentage over six outings in March. |

Nedeljkovic will protect the home net Sunday versus the Red Wings, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - Nedeljkovic has gone 1-3-2 over his past nine outings, which includes two relief appearances.

Nedeljkovic stopped all four shots he faced after replacing Tristan Jarry early in the third period of Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Rangers. - The game had already slipped away from Pittsburgh when Nedeljkovic came in, but he at least didn't let things get any worse. The 28-year-old netminder has only gotten two starts in nine March games, but he's entered two contests in relief. His .817 save percentage in those outings doesn't make a strong case for a bigger role, but with Jarry also struggling and the Penguins' playoff hopes fading, Nedeljkovic might see an uptick in his workload. |

Nedeljkovic will guard the road goal Saturday versus Boston. - Nedeljkovic will get the first half of Pittsburgh's back-to-back, which could put Tristan Jarry in goal for Sunday's home matchup versus Edmonton.

The 28-year-old netminder is 9-5-4 with a .908 save percentage and 2.87 GAA while backing up Jarry this season.

Nedeljkovic turned aside 28 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Islanders. - The Isles seemed to have a book on Nedeljkovic, beating him consistently on longer-range shots to the blocker side, including on the OT winner by Adam Pelech for the defenseman's first goal of the season. Nedeljkovic has only one win in his last four starts, going 1-1-2 while stopping 11 of 122 shots (.910 save percentage), but with Tristan Jarry also scuffling a bit and having lost three straight, the duo may work in a timeshare in the short term. |

Nedeljkovic will defend the blue paint versus the Islanders at home Tuesday, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. - Nedeljkovic was excellent in his last appearance Thursday against the Blackhawks, turning aside 27 of 28 shots en route to a 4-1 victory.

Nedeljkovic made 27 saves in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Wild. - The Penguins never led in the game, but Nedeljkovic kept things from getting out of hand and arguably should have been rewarded with a better result -- Kirill Kaprizov's game-winner in the third period came right after the puck seemed to hit the netting above the glass in the corner, but play continued and replay was inconclusive. Nedeljkovic hasn't won a game in over a month, largely due to a lack of work, and in six outings since the beginning of January he's 2-2-1 with a 2.94 GAA and .901 save percentage. |

Nedeljkovic will defend the cage on the road against Minnesota on Friday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - Nedeljkovic will take the first game of the Penguins' back-to-back, which means Tristan Jarry will likely start versus Winnipeg on Saturday. In his last five outings, the 28-year-old Nedeljkovic is 2-1-1 with a 2.90 GAA and .901 save percentage. After this back-to-back, Pittsburgh has another one Wednesday and Thursday against Florida and Chicago, respectively, so Nedeljkovic figures to play again relatively soon. |

Nedeljkovic stopped 29 of 31 shots in regulation and overtime and one of three shootout attempts in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers. - It was a tough loss to swallow for Nedeljkovic, as both goals he gave up in regulation came on Florida power plays, while the two pucks that beat him in the shootout were perfectly placed just inside a post by Aleksander Barkov and Sam Reinhart. Nedeljkovic has made five appearances in January, going 2-1-1 with a 2.90 GAA and .901 save percentage, but those ratios are identical to what Tristan Jarry has posted in seven outings this month while going 1-3-2. Should one of the two netminders heat up after the All-Star break, the Penguins' No. 1 job would seem to be there for the taking. |

Nedeljkovic is having a strong year in the Pittsburgh cage, going 8-3-2 with a 2.66 GAA and a .916 save percentage. It will be a tough matchup as the Panthers lead the NHL in shots on goal, averaging 34.3 per contest. |

Sidney Crosby then bailed out his goalie with the game-winner. Nedeljkovic has taken only one regulation loss since the beginning of December, going 5-1-2 in his last nine outings with a 2.79 GAA and .906 save percentage, and he may be working his way into a timeshare with Tristan Jarry. |

Nedeljkovic will tend the twine for Thursday's road clash with Boston, Josh Yohe of The Athletic reports. - Nedeljkovic gets the nod after having come into Tuesday's game against Washington in relief of Tristan Jarry. At this point, it's likely a win-and-your-in situation for the Penguins, so Nedeljkovic could challenge for more opportunities down the stretch, especially if Jarry continues to struggle. On the year, Nedeljkovic has the better GAA (2.42 vs 2.58) and save percentage (.924 vs .912) despite Jarry having put up four shutouts. |

Nedeljkovic stopped 14 of 15 shots after replacing Tristan Jarry midway through the first period of Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals. - The only goal Nedeljkovic allowed came on an Alex Ovechkin shot through a screen on the power play, but as it proved to be the game-winner, the netminder was saddled with the loss despite out-playing Jarry on the night. Nedeljkovic hadn't taken a regulation loss in the entire month of December, going 4-0-2 in seven appearances with a 2.62 GAA and .915 save percentage, and Jarry's recent struggles could open the door for his understudy to gain a bigger share of the workload in the Penguins' crease. |

Nedeljkovic made 39 saves in regulation and overtime and denied nine of 12 shootout attempts during Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Canadiens. - Montreal grabbed a 3-1 lead late in the first period, but Nedeljkovic slammed the door afterward to force extra time and then held on during a wild shootout that saw the first four skaters find the back of the net. It's the 27-year-old netminder's first win in nearly a month due to inconsistent playing time behind Tristan Jarry, but Nedeljkovic has been sharp when called upon, going 3-2-1 in six starts this season with a 2.29 GAA and .935 save percentage. |

Nedeljkovic (lower body) faced some shots at Wednesday's practice session, Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. - Nedeljkovic won't be an option for the Penguins next two contests but is eligible to be activated off injured reserve ahead of Sunday's clash with Vegas. The Penguins have an upcoming back-to-back against the Hurricanes and Golden Knights on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, which would be a prime opportunity for Nedeljkovic to make his return to the crease.

Nedeljkovic made 30 saves in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Stars. - After keeping Dallas off the scoreboard in the first period, things began to fall apart for Nedeljkovic in the second after a Jason Robertson tally, and the 27-year-old netminder played with little control in the third. Nedeljkovic's numbers through two starts are solid and include a .914 save percentage, but he's unlikely to push Tristan Jarry for the starting role any time soon with performances like this one. |

| Oct. 24, 2023 |
Nedeljkovic will get the starting nod at home versus Dallas on Tuesday. - Nedeljkovic will make his second appearance of the season after starter Tristan Jarry gave up four goals in each of the Penguins' last two contests.

Nedeljkovic stopped 24 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Carolina. - The Hurricanes' final goal was scored into an empty net, but their first two came in the first eight minutes of the first period -- digging a hole the Red Wings' offense couldn't climb out of. Nedeljkovic is 3-3-0 in six starts since his return to the NHL in late March with a 2.63 GAA and .920 save percentage, and those numbers could be good enough to earn him the start in Detroit's final game of the season Thursday, on the road in Tampa Bay. |

The Red Wings have yet to decide exactly when they will recall the backup goaltender, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Based on this latest report, the Wings might keep Nedeljkovic in the AHL through Monday; otherwise, he'll rejoin the parent club ahead of a three-game road trip that starts in Colorado that same day. Nedeljkovic's AHL performance Friday was uninspiring, and the Wings want to make sure he's focused and properly conditioned after watching him struggle to a 4.09 GAA and .880 save percentage through nine top-level games.

Nedeljkovic will guard the road goal versus the Panthers on Thursday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports. - Nedeljkovic hasn't won since Nov. 6, though that's mostly been due to a lack of playing time. Ville Husso has often served as the starter lately, including each of the last three games.

Nedeljkovic allowed four goals on 34 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Sabres. - Nedeljkovic probably should have had the Sabres' first two goals, but there was little he could do about the other two. The 26-year-old was bailed out by his offense in the third period, but he allowed Jack Quinn to net the only tally in the shootout. In his last four starts, Nedeljkovic has given up 18 goals, and his performance Wednesday wasn't a convincing case for more playing time. He's at 2-3-2 with a 3.97 GAA and an .880 save percentage through eight appearances. He may not have to wait long for another start -- the Red Wings host the Golden Knights on Saturday and then visit the Blue Jackets on Sunday, with the latter of those games being the more favorable matchup. |

The 26-year-old netminder seeks his first win since holding the Rangers to two goals Nov. 6. Posting a perfect save percentage Monday marked a stark contrast to Nedeljkovic's earlier efforts. In four of his first six appearances, Nedeljkovic registered a save percentage of .862 or lower. |

Nedeljkovic will start in goal Sunday versus the Rangers, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - The Red Wings will start Ville Husso against the Islanders on Saturday for the first half of the back-to-back set, which affords Nedeljkovic a prolonged break after the Sabres blitzed him to the tune of eight goals on 46 shots this past Monday. Considering the Blueshirts have recorded the fourth-most shots this season (421), the Wings will need to tighten up defensively and better support Ned, who's off to a poor start based on an .871 save percentage and 4.96 GAA through four contests. |

Ville Husso is Ned's biggest threat to playing time this season, though the early indication is that this will be a relatively even rotation between the two netminders. Last year, Nedelkjovic posted an uninspiring 3.31 GAA and .901 save percentage through 59 games, and now there's added pressure for him to bounce back stronger. |

Nedeljkovic has looked like an elite goaltender at points this season, though his numbers have been inconsistent behind a young Detroit team.

The month of March has not been kind to Nedeljkovic, as he's gone 3-5-2 with a 3.67 GAA and .894 save percentage over 12 appearances, but if Pickard joins Thomas Greiss (upper body) on the shelf, his workload will only get larger. |
