Alex Nedeljkovic - Page 8 - NHL News & Rumors

Swept away by Hurricanes Nedeljkovic stopped 24 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Carolina.

Impact The Hurricanes' final goal was scored into an empty net, but their first two came in the first eight minutes of the first period -- digging a hole the Red Wings' offense couldn't climb out of. Nedeljkovic is 3-3-0 in six starts since his return to the NHL in late March with a 2.63 GAA and .920 save percentage, and those numbers could be good enough to earn him the start in Detroit's final game of the season Thursday, on the road in Tampa Bay.

Impact Nedeljkovic has bounced between levels a bit recently, but he's won his last three NHL appearances. He has a lackluster 3.56 GAA and an .895 save percentage through 14 outings this season, so he's not a great fantasy option in this contest.

Not on NHL roster Per Ansar Khan of MLive.com, Nedeljkovic isn't currently on the Red Wings' roster, suggesting he's been assigned to the team's AHL affiliate.

Impact Although he's currently in the minors, there's a chance Nedeljkovic will be recalled under emergency conditions and start between the pipes against the Sabres on Thursday.

Overall, Nedeljkovic is 5-6-2 with an .895 save percentage on the year. He's certainly earned a starting role while Ville Husso (lower body) remains sidelined.
