Nedeljkovic stopped 27 of 31 shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
A three-goal second period accounted for most of the damage, and Nedeljkovic also gave up a goal to Sebastian Aho in overtime to take the loss against the team he made his NHL debut with back in 2016-17. Nedeljkovic has started three of the Penguins' last four games, going 1-1-1 with nine goals allowed in that span. He's now 6-6-4 with a 3.22 GAA and an .888 save percentage over 17 contests this season. Tristan Jarry hasn't done much to keep hold of the crease, but Nedeljkovic isn't really any better, so expect a timeshare to continue between the pipes for the Penguins.

Nedeljkovic will start Sunday's road matchup versus the Hurricanes, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic has won two of his last three outings, allowing seven goals on 86 shots. He has a 6-6-3 record with a 3.18 GAA and an .889 save percentage across 16 appearances this season. Carolina ranks seventh in the league with 3.36 goals per game and lost 4-0 to Minnesota on Saturday.

Nedeljkovic stopped 21 of 24 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings, with Detroit's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old netminder got little defensive help on the night -- the Wings' first goal came on a clean breakaway by Jonatan Berggren, while the other two pucks to get past Nedeljkovic came on power plays. He wraps up December having made only four starts to Tristan Jarry's nine on the month, but Nedeljkovic's 2.77 GAA and .907 save percentage could be tipping the playing-time split back in his direction, as he's been between the pipes for back-to-back contests.

Nedeljkovic will be between the pipes in Tuesday's road matchup against the Red Wings, according to Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic has looked better lately, posting a 2-1-0 record, .915 save percentage and 2.68 GAA through three appearances in December. The 28-year-old has won three of his past four starts, allowing two goals in three of those contests. Nedeljkovic has a chance to continue his strong play in the blue paint Tuesday against a Detroit club that ranks 29th in the NHL with 2.58 goals per game.

Nedeljkovic stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic was making his first start since Dec. 17, when he stopped 29 of 31 shots in a 3-2 win over the Kings, and he looked solid between the pipes despite allowing two goals in the third period. The 28-year-old has been limited to a backup role, which limits his fantasy upside considerably, but he could be a good streaming option. Nedeljkovic has gone 3-1-0 across his last four appearances, posting a 2.51 GAA and a .921 save percentage in that span.

Nedeljkovic will patrol the home crease against the Islanders on Sunday, according to Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic will get the second half of Pittsburgh's back-to-back after Tristan Jarry played in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Islanders. The 28-year-old Nedeljkovic has a 5-5-3 record with a 3.26 GAA and an .886 save percentage through 14 appearances this season.

Nedeljkovic made 29 saves in a 3-2 overtime win over Los Angeles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
It was Ned's first game since Dec. 6. Nedeljkovic is just 5-5-3 in 14 appearances, and his 3.26 GAA and .886 save percentage are queasy at best. He doesn't get enough playing time to be a viable fantasy asset, but it was still a nice night.

Nedeljkovic was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes at home versus the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic has been firmly cemented in the backup role for the Penguins of late, having played in just one of the team's six outings in December. In that appearance, the 28-year-old netminder gave up four goals on 32 shots (.875 save percentage), which no doubt factored into the decision by the club to keep rolling with Tristan Jarry. At this point, Nedeljkovic's next appearance figures to be in a back-to-back at the end of December versus the Islanders on either Dec. 28 or 29.

Nedeljkovic stopped 28 of 32 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic has traded wins and losses in his last four starts, but the numbers haven't been encouraging for the 28-year-old. He's given up at least three goals in three of those four starts while posting a 3.71 GAA and an .878 save percentage. The Penguins have been rotating starters between the pipes lately, and Tristan Jarry should be in line to play Saturday against the Maple Leafs.

Nedeljkovic will be between the visiting pipes against the Rangers on Friday, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Nedeljkovic is coming off a stellar start Tuesday, as he kicked out 30 shots in a 6-2 win over Calgary. He is 4-4-3 with a 3.31 GAA and an .883 save percentage in 12 appearances this season. Nedeljkovic will face the slumping Rangers, who have won only three of their last 13 games.
