Nedeljkovic turned aside 19 of 21 shots in regulation and overtime and four of seven shootout attempts in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to New Jersey.
EDGE Analysis
The Devils grabbed a 2-0 lead midway through the second period on Jack Hughes' second goal of the night, but Nedeljkovic was able to shut the door the rest of the way and give the Penguins a chance to force extra time. The 29-year-old goalie found less success in the shootout however, eventually getting beaten glove-side by Timo Meier in the seventh round to end it. Nedeljkovic appears to have a firm grasp of the starting job in the Pittsburgh crease right now, allowing two goals or less in six of seven starts since Jan. 17 and going 4-2-1 with a 1.84 GAA and .936 save percentage.

Nedeljkovic tended his first shutout of the season, stopping all 25 shots he saw in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Saturday's performance was Nedeljkovic's best of the season and the ninth shutout of his career. The 29-year-old netminder is up to an 11-9-4 record with an .899 save percentage and a 3.02 GAA in 25 appearances. He has excelled as of late with a 4-2-0 record and 172 saves across his last six outings. For the time being, the Penguins have found a direction for their crease and will likely continue to view Nedeljkovic as their top option. His inconsistencies from earlier this season, however, make him a play suited best for deeper leagues. His next opportunity to guard the crease will be Tuesday against New Jersey.

Nedeljkovic stopped 27 of 29 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over Utah.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic picked up his third win in five outings.

Nedeljkovic stopped 26 of 28 shots in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic has lost two starts in a row, though to be fair, he wasn't to blame Monday, as he gave up only two goals, and the offense didn't provide him with enough support. Nedeljkovic has been tagged with the loss in three of his last five appearances, going 2-3-0 with a 3.21 GAA and a .904 save percentage in that span.

Nedeljkovic will tend the twine on the road versus San Jose on Monday, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic has underwhelmed this season, going 9-8-4 with a 3.26 GAA in 22 appearances. Despite the 29-year-old netminder's struggles, he remains the No. 1 option in Pittsburgh ahead of youngster Joel Blomqvist. Still, if Nedeljkovic can't string together some victories, Blomqvist could get an extended look in order for the team to fully evaluate his abilities.
