Nedeljkovic will protect the road goal Tuesday versus the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Nedeljkovic has had mixed results in five appearances so far, posting a 1-1-2 record with a .900 save percentage. He'll face a Canadiens team still trying to find its footing, but the Red Wings will be missing two of their top offensive players in Tyler Bertuzzi (not injury related) and Dylan Larkin (personal). That could make it tough for Nedeljkovic to escape Montreal with a win.
