Alex Nedeljkovic - NHL News & Rumors

Poor showing in relief Nedeljkovic stopped seven of 10 shots in relief of Yaroslav Askarov in Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Askarov was shelled for four goals on 16 shots in less than 15 minutes. Nedeljkovic entered the game late in the first period and still managed to give up a goal in each frame despite the Golden Knights backing off their high pace. Nedeljkovic won't wear the loss this time, but this was a poor outings and the fifth time in his last seven games he's allowed at least three goals. He's at a 5-7-2 record with a 3.06 GAA and an .895 save percentage over 17 appearances this season. With Askarov also struggling lately, the Sharks may split the crease until one goalie or the other gets back on track.

Struggles, suffers blunder in loss Nedeljkovic allowed four goals on 29 shots in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Stars. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Nedeljkovic had some struggles against the Stars' top players in this contest. However, the game was decided on his own blunder, a bad pass up the middle to Justin Hryckowian, who buried the game-winning goal before Nedeljkovic could get back into position. The 29-year-old goalie has gone 2-2-0 with 13 goals allowed over five appearances in December. He's now at a 5-7-2 record with a 3.01 GAA and an .899 save percentage over 16 contests this season. Yaroslav Askarov should be expected back between the pipes for Saturday's favorable matchup against the Kraken.

Falls to Philly Nedeljkovic stopped 26 of 29 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Flyers, with Philadelphia's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact The Sharks didn't give Nedeljkovic much support at either end of the ice, getting out-shot 30-18 on the night. The 29-year-old netminder has just one win in his last seven outings, going 1-4-0 during that stretch with a 3.07 GAA and .890 save percentage, and Yaroslav Askarov (illness) should be back soon enough to resume his duties as San Jose's No. 1 in the crease.

Strong performance Sunday Nedeljkovic stopped 29 shots on 30 save attempts in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Nedeljkovic tended one of his strongest games of the season, as he allowed just one goal at a man disadvantage in the first period. With the win, he now has a 4-5-2 record with a 3.01 GAA and a .900 save percentage through 11 appearances this season. After posting back-to-back seasons with double-digit wins for the Pittsburgh Penguins, the 29-year-old netminder is on pace to do the same in his first season with the Sharks. If the Sharks continue their winning ways this season, he could turn in a solid campaign while backing up Yaroslav Askarov. Nedeljkovic's win Sunday was his first in exactly one month, putting him back in contention to be an emergency spot start in two-goalie fantasy formats. If Askarov draws the start Tuesday, Nedeljkovic has a solid chance to play Thursday in Toronto.

Starting Sunday Nedeljkovic will get the start Sunday against the Hurricanes, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

Impact Nedeljkovic has served as more of a backup with the impressive run that Yaroslav Askarov has been on, but he'll get a chance to start Sunday. The 29-year-old is seeking his first win since Nov. 7 as he has lost his last three starts. He carries a 3-5-2 record, 3.19 GAA and an .894 save percentage into the game with the Hurricanes, who are fifth in the NHL with 3.41 goals per game.

Not great in relief outing Nedeljkovic stopped 15 of 18 shots in relief of Yaroslav Askarov in Wednesday's 7-1 loss to the Capitals.

Impact The Capitals didn't take it easy on Nedeljkovic, who was a little better than Askarov. This appearance didn't lead to a decision for Nedeljkovic, who remains at 3-5-2 through 12 appearances. The 29-year-old goalie has added a 3.19 GAA and an .893 save percentage this season, which has seen him settle into a backup role. The Sharks are setting out on a five-game road trip that begins Friday in Dallas, but without a back-to-back set during their travels, it's unclear when Nedeljkovic might next get into a game.
