Johan Hedberg is slated to start one of New Jersey's final three games this week.
Coach Pete DeBoer has apparently decided on his rotation already, but he hasn't divulged that information and Martin Brodeur confirmed it by saying he would probably be between the pipes for two more contests prior to the end of the regular season.

Johan Hedberg stopped all 34 shots he faced in a 1-0 shutout victory over the Senators Tuesday night.
Hedberg was fantastic in this contest and the win was his third in a row. Though he hasn't played much of late, the case can be made that he has been the best goaltender for the Devils this season, though Martin Brodeur is certain to be their starter in the playoffs.

Coach Pete DeBoer said he intends to start Johan Hedberg on Tuesday at Ottawa.
That would give Martin Brodeur, who played in Monday's loss to the New York Rangers, the night off. Hedberg's last appearance in the Devils' crease came during a 2-1 win over the Islanders on Mar. 10.

Johan Hedberg turned aside 23 of the 24 shots he faced in a 2-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night.
The steady play of goaltender Johan Hedberg allowed the New Jersey Devil's offense to comeback in the third period. Hedberg instilled the Devil's offense with the confidence to push the pace offensively. The result was a big two points for the playoff bound Devils.

Johan Hedberg will start in Saturday's game against the New York Islanders.
Hedberg stopped all 23 shots he faced on March 2, but the Devils still started Martin Brodeur in their following three games. We wouldn't be surprised if Hedberg gets about one start a week over the next month in an effort to get Brodeur fresh for the playoffs.

Johan Hedberg, playing in place of future Hall of Famer Martin Brodeur for the first time since Feb. 9, stopped 23 Washington Capital shots for his third shutout of the season Friday night.
It was Hedberg's first victory since Feb. 4. Hedberg had to make a couple of athletic saves early but the suprisingly lacklustre Caps, who had won three in a row coming into the game, hardly challenged him the rest of the game.

Johan Hedberg is projected to start on Friday in Washington for the first time since a 4-3 shootout loss to St. Louis on Feb. 9.
"It's been a while now and I'm excited for the chance to get back in there," Hedberg said. Hedberg owns a 13-7-2 record with a .908 save percentage and a 2.53 GAA in 23 appearances this year. Martin Brodeur will start his ninth consecutive game Thursday night at Boston, as he has returned to being a workhorse for the Devils down the stretch.
