Alex Nedeljkovic Facing New York On Friday
19 seconds agoAccording to Josh Getzoff of the Pittsburgh Penguins, goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic will get the starting nod on Friday evening against the New York Rangers. Nedeljkovic has started each of their previous four contests and will continue to operate as the clear No. 1 option in the Pittsburgh crease. While Tristan Jarry has been in the AHL, Nedeljkovic has seen most of the starts, with rookie Joel Blomqvist slotting in as the No. 2. Over his previous four outings, Nedeljkovic has held a 2-1-1 record with a stellar 1.46 GAA and a .942 percent SV. He has stopped at least 26 shots in two of these contests. Overall, Nedeljkovic holds an 11-9-5 record with a .899 percent SV and a 2.97 GAA. Even though he has begun to turn the corner, he is a risky play in DFS as the Penguins will be without both Sidney Crosby (upper body) and Evgeni Malkin (lower body) in this contest.
