Alex Nedeljkovic Stops 44 Shots On Friday
2 days agoPittsburgh Penguins goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic stopped 44 of the 47 shots he saw on Friday evening en route to defeating the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Blue Jackets dominated the shot total, but Nedeljkovic was able to lead the way. He allowed one goal in the opening frame to Boone Jenner. In the second, Columbus forward Justin Danforth found the back of the net on a backhand. Later in the third, Kent Johnson would beat Nedeljkovic on a wrist shot for his 22nd goal of the campaign. This was Nedeljkovic's third outing of the campaign in which he stopped at least 40 shots. Entering Friday, Nedeljkovic carried a poor 0-5 record over his last six outings. During this stretch, he held a 4.43 GAA with an .843 save percentage. Fantasy managers should expect him and Tristan Jarry to continue to share the Pittsburgh crease.
