Alex Nedeljkovic - NHL News & Rumors

Strong showing in season finale Nedeljkovic turned aside 25 of 26 shots on net in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Jets.

Impact Nedeljkovic ended the 2025-26 campaign on the right foot, allowing just one early goal before keeping the Jets off the scoresheet for the final 56 minutes of Thursday's contest. With the win, the 30-year-old netminder finished the season with an 18-14-4 record, a 2.87 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 40 appearances this season. While his first season in San Jose had its ups and downs, he played some of his best hockey down the stretch with a 5-1-0 record, a 2.17 GAA and a .915 save percentage over his final six outings. He will likely compete with Yaroslav Askarov for the starting job next season, but Nedeljkovic will likely receive enough chances in net to remain fantasy relevant in various deep leagues.

Will start in season finale Nedeljkovic is set to start on the road against Winnipeg on Thursday, per Max Miller of NHL.com.

Impact Nedeljkovic stopped 26 of 28 shots en route to a 3-2 win over Nashville in his last start Monday. He's 17-14-4 with a 2.92 GAA and an .894 save percentage in 39 appearances in 2025-26. Manning the net against the Jets will make this the second time he's reached 40 games played in a regular season. Thursday's action will also be an opportunity for him to complete his sweep of the Jets in 2025-26 after stopping 59 of 61 shots (.967 save percentage) en route to victories over Winnipeg on Nov. 7 and March 1.

Hangs on for pivotal win Nedeljkovic turned aside 25 of 27 shots on net in Monday's 3-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Nedeljkovic kept San Jose's net tidy across the first 55 minutes of regulation before Nashville's Luke Evangelista scored two late goals to give the Sharks a scare. Nedeljkovic's win Monday brought him up to a 17-14-4 record, a 2.92 GAA and an .894 save percentage across 39 outings this season. The 30-year-old netminder played his part to keep the Sharks in playoff contention until yesterday with a 4-1-0 record, a 2.41 GAA and a .905 save percentage over his last five appearances. If he appears in either of San Jose's last two games of the regular season, he's a solid spot start in most fantasy formats.

Starting in Nashville Nedeljkovic will defend the road net against the Predators on Monday, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

Impact Nedeljkovic is coming off a 21-save effort in a 5-2 loss to Edmonton on Wednesday. He has a 16-14-4 record this campaign with a 2.95 GAA and an .893 save percentage across 38 appearances. Nashville sits 19th in the league with 2.95 goals per game this season.

APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE

Not up to challenge Wednesday Nedeljkovic stopped 21 of 26 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.

Impact Nedeljkovic didn't get a lot of help in this one. The Sharks committed three penalties, and the Oilers' power play cashed in each time, which was the difference in the game. Nedeljkovic had won his last three games before this loss, which dropped him to 16-14-4 with a 2.95 GAA and an .893 save percentage over 38 appearances. He's been a little better than Yaroslav Askarov lately, but Askarov is likely to get the nod in a critical matchup versus the Ducks on Thursday. The Sharks are three points back of the Predators for the last wild-card spot after this loss, but they still have a game in hand.

Slated to face Edmonton Nedeljkovic is expected to start at home against Edmonton on Wednesday, per Max Miller of NHL.com.

Impact Nedeljkovic has allowed two or fewer goals in each of his past four appearances, going 3-0-1 over that stretch. He's 16-13-4 with a 2.89 GAA and an .896 save percentage in 37 outings in 2025-26. He'll look for a better result against the Oilers after allowing five goals on 37 shots en route to a 5-3 loss to Edmonton on March 17. However, Edmonton is a challenging opponent that ranks fifth in goals per game with 3.46 this season.

Makes 27 saves in win Nedeljkovic stopped 27 of 29 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact The 30-year-old goaltender is putting up solid numbers to close out the regular season, and he's won his last three starts while Yaroslav Asrakov has been struggling. Thus, it's not surprising to see both goaltenders splitting the workload with San Jose still alive in the playoff race. During his three-game winning run, Nedeljkovic has posted a 1.67 GAA and an impressive .932 save percentage.

Starting against Chicago Nedeljkovic was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, indicating that he'll start at home against Chicago.

Impact Nedeljkovic largely struggled over the second half of March, including a stretch in which he went 0-4-1 with a 4.40 GAA and .818 save percentage over five starts. However, he's been more effective in recent outings, going 2-0-0 with a 1.51 GAA and .932 save percentage over his last two starts. He'll have a favorable matchup against the Blackhawks, who rank last in the NHL with 2.56 goals per game.

APRIL 6 • ROTOWIRE

Steady in Thursday's win Nedeljkovic stopped 18 of 19 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Nedeljkovic has won his last two outings, part of a larger four-game winning streak that has the Sharks making their presence felt in the playoff race. He limited the damage Thursday to a John Tavares power-play goal in the second period. Nedeljkovic is up to 15-13-4 with a 2.91 GAA and an .894 save percentage over 36 appearances this season. Yaroslav Askarov is likely to get most of the starts down the stretch, but the Sharks still have two back-to-back sets on the schedule, so Nedeljkovic won't be completely out of the mix. The team has a critical matchup ahead when the Predators visit San Jose on Saturday.

In goal Thursday Nedeljkovic will be between the pipes at home against the Maple Leafs on Thursday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Nedeljkovic has struggled in his most recent outings, going 1-4-1 with a 3.97 GAA in his last six contests. With Yaroslav Askarov back to 100 percent, the 30-year-old Nedeljkovic could see his opportunities dwindle down the stretch, especially if the Sharks find themselves in the mix for a wild-card spot.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Back in win column Saturday Nedeljkovic turned aside 22 shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact The Sharks were down 2-1 heading into the third period, but Nedeljkovic shut the door on the home side and gave his offense a chance to mount a comeback. In the process, the veteran netminder snapped a winless stretch in which he'd gone 0-4-1 in five outings with a brutal 4.40 GAA and .818 save percentage. With Yaroslav Askarov (upper body) sidelined again, however, Nedeljkovic will be San Jose's top option between the pipes in the short term as the team pushes for a playoff spot.
