Red Wings' Alex Nedeljkovic: Enters COVID-19 protocol

Nedeljkovic was placed in COVID-19 protocols ahead of Saturday's home game against the Devils, Brendan Savage of MLive.com reports.

This effectively rules out Nedeljkovic for the upcoming contest, but the Red Wings will have the following four days off, which gives the goalie plenty of time to clear protocols. Thomas Greiss and Calvin Pickard are the options to draw a start against the Devils.
