Nedeljkovic allowed one goal on 28 shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic had plenty of margin for error as the Hurricanes' offense and power play both operated well Tuesday. The 25-year-old goalie has a 13-4-3 record with a 1.94 GAA and a .932 save percentage in 20 appearances. Nedeljkovic has earned his way into a position of trust in fantasy when he gets the starting nod, although his playing time could drop again when Petr Mrazek (lower body) returns.

EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic was a little shaky in his last start Saturday against Florida, surrendering four goals on 36 shots en route to a 4-3 loss. The 25-year-old backstop will attempt to bounce back and secure his 13th victory of the campaign in a tough road matchup with a hot Dallas team that's won six of its last seven games.

Nedeljkovic made 32 saves in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Panthers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic had won four straight, but couldn't hold a 3-1 lead Saturday when the Panthers turned up the heat in the third period. He then had a Aleksander Barkov no-look wrister trickle through Nedeljkovic and into the net early in OT. He'll look for his 13th win of the season next time out.

Nedeljkovic turned aside 32 of 34 shots Thursday in a 4-2 win over Florida.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic was bested by Aleksander Barkov just over six minutes into the game but prevented any additional damage until his Carolina teammates were able to build a 3-1 lead. Nedeljkovic allowed another Barkov goal in the third period, that one on a power play, but he was plenty steady en route to his fourth straight win. Nedeljkovic has been one of the league's breakout goaltenders in 2020-21, going 12-4-2 with a 1.87 GAA and a .933 save percentage. He also has three shutouts.

Nedeljkovic will be between the pipes on the road versus Florida on Thursday, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic is currently riding a three-game winning streak during which he has posted a 0.67 GAA, .975 save percentage and one shutout. At this point, fantasy players shouldn't be surprised to see coach Rod Brind'Amour ride the hot hand and continue to feed Nedeljkovic a few extra starts down the stretch, though he'll likely be hard-pressed to supplant Petr Mrazek as thee preferred option come playoff time.

Nedeljkovic made 26 saves in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Nedejkovic has now set aside 77 of 79 shots in his last three starts, winning all three. With both Nedeljkovic and Petr Mrazek playing well, the Hurricanes will have some major decisions to make in net down the stretch and in the playoffs. If Carolina faces Tampa Bay in the postseason, it will be hard not to lean on Nedeljkovic, as he's beaten the Lightning twice in three tries while allowing just three goals over those three meetings.
