The struggling Penguins, losers of three straight (0-2-1), will turn to Nedeljkovic on Tuesday, despite allowing four goals on 25 shots (.840 SV%) in his last contest, a disappointing 5-4 overtime loss to the Colorado Avalanche. Nedeljkovic was between the pipes for the Penguins' last victory, saving 25 of 28 shots (.893 SV%) on March 17th in a 6-3 win over the Detroit Red Wings. The Penguins enter action as +163 road underdogs against Jake Guentzel and the Carolina Hurricanes.

Despite having an excellent outing on Sunday, saving 31 of 33 shots (.939 SV%), Jarry allowed two late goals en route to a 2-1 regulation loss to the Los Angeles Kings and will serve as the backup to Nedeljkovic on Tuesday night. Nedeljkovic has played well lately, including a 27-save performance (.964 SV%) in his last outing, a 4-1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on February 15th, the Penguins' only win in the last 12 days (1-4-0). That said, the Penguins are -130 home favourites against the New York Islanders on Tuesday night.
As expected, Nedeljkovic will be between the pipes for the Penguins as they travel to Chicago on Thursday to play their second game in as many nights. Nedeljkovic's last start came on February 9th in Minnesota, when he allowed three goals on 30 shots enroute to a 3-2 defeat. Nedeljkovic has performed well when called upon this season, posting an 8-4-3 record to go along with an impressive .917 SV%. He and the Penguins are -190 favourites to pick up the win in Chicago on Thursday.
Nedeljkovic will start his first game since the All-Star break on Friday evening when the Penguins visit the Minnesota Wild. The 28-year-old Nedeljkovic has only played once in the last seven games for the Penguins but was excellent, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Florida Panthers. Nedeljkovic was victorious against Minnesota on December 16th, saving 24 of 27 shots (.889 SV%) in a 4-3 win.
After taking the reigns on the Penguins' crease for most of December, Nedeljkovic will start on Friday for the first time in six games. Nedeljkovic has been serviceable this season, posting a 2.66 GAA and .916 SV% in 15 games (8-3-2), but allowed three goals on nine shots (.667 SV%) before being pulled in his last outing, a 4-3 loss to the Vancouver Canucks on January 11th. The Penguins are +116 home underdogs against a Florida Panthers club that has outscored their opposition 10-3 in their last two games (2-0-0).

Due to some strong play, Nedeljkovic has become a fixture in the Penguins' crease over the last month and will start for the fourth time in the last six games on Thursday. Nedeljkovic allowed five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%), a 6-5 victory over the Boston Bruins on January 4th, but has been nearly unbeatable otherwise, allowing only one goal in three of his last four starts, posting a .933 SV%. The Penguins are -126 home favourites against the Vancouver Canucks, who are riding a three-game winning streak, outscoring their opposition 17-9.
Nedeljkovic will start for the third time in the last five games for the Penguins on Monday night. Despite a poor showing in his last appearance, allowing five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) in a 6-5 victory over the Boston Bruins, the Penguins coaching staff has been confident rolling with Nedeljkovic over the last month. Over his last five games (3-1-1), Nedeljkovic has allowed only one goal three times, posting a .902 SV%. The Penguins are -123 home favourites against the Philadelphia Flyers, whom they went 0-0-2 against last month.
Nedeljkovic has been terrific when called upon this season and will start for the second time in the last three games on Thursday when the Penguins visit the Boston Bruins. Nedeljkovic entered Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Washington Capitals in relief, saving 14 of 15 shots (.933 SV%), and has only allowed two goals on the last 53 shots he's faced (.962 SV%). The Penguins, winners of three of their last four (3-1-0), are +132 road underdogs against a Bruins squad that has won four straight.
Tristan Jarry has been solid most of the season but has taken a back seat lately to Nedeljkovic, who will start for the third time in the last four games. Nedeljkovic has won each of his last two starts, saving 63 of 69 shots (.913 SV%). In his first season with the Penguins, Nedeljkovic is sporting an impressive 2.58 GAA and .925 SV% through eight games (4-2-1). The Penguins are +119 home underdogs on Thursday against a Carolina Hurricanes team that is coming off a convincing 6-3 win against the Vegas Golden Knights.
