Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Beaten five times in loss
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic stopped 29 of 34 shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Bruins. Boston's sixth goal was an empty-netter.
Nedeljkovic struggled during Boston's third-period comeback, allowing three goals in less than four minutes as San Jose surrendered a 3-2 advantage. The veteran netminder finished with an .853 save percentage despite facing a substantial workload. His ability to accumulate saves offers some fantasy appeal, but inconsistent defensive support and competition for starts make him a risky option in standard formats. Nedeljkovic has a 2.89 GAA and .903 save percentage in his first five outings this season.

Rotowire
Nedeljkovic turned aside 31 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canadiens.

His efforts were rewarded when Macklin Celebrini wired home a one-timer in OT.

Remarkably, all four of Nedeljkovic's outings have been decided in overtime or a shootout.

Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Allows three goals Saturday
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic stopped 24 of 27 shots in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Red Wings.
Nedeljkovic carried a 3-1 lead into the third period but couldn't protect it, allowing Detroit to score twice before ultimately falling in the shootout. This was the first time he posted a single-game save percentage below the .900 mark, but nonetheless, he's enjoying a strong start to the season. With San Jose continuing to rotate its goaltending options, Nedeljkovic's fantasy value remains tied to his ability to earn starts and deliver consistent performances. Through three appearances, he's gone 2-0-1 with a 2.20 GAA and a .920 save percentage.

Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Makes 32 saves in shootout win
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic stopped 32 of 34 shots in Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over the Predators.
Nedeljkovic has been limited to just two appearances this season as the Sharks' No. 2 goaltender behind Yaroslav Askarov, but he's looked impressive overall and has notched 56 saves on 60 shots faced -- good for a 1.90 GAA and .933 save percentage. His role as Askarov's backup limits his fantasy upside, but there's no question he's stepped up when called upon. This strong start to the season could lead to more playing time in the future.

Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Defending road crease Thursday
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic will start Thursday's road game against Nashville, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Nedeljkovic has seen limited playing time early in the 2026-27 campaign, as he started just one of the Sharks' first six games of the year. He was effective during his previous start, turning aside 24 of 26 shots (.923 save percentage) during an overtime win over the Blues on the road. Nedeljkovic made a pair of road starts against the Predators last year, going 1-1-0 with a 4.00 GAA and .830 save percentage.
Nedeljkovic stopped 24 of 26 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blues.
Nedeljkovic put in a solid performance in his first start of the season. The Sharks did their part, twice coming back from one-goal deficits before Darnell Nurse tallied in overtime. Nedeljkovic has functioned as Yaroslav Askarov's backup to begin 2026-27, but the two worked in a timeshare at various points in 2025-26. If Nedeljkovic's play remains strong, he could carve out more time. The Sharks have a tough matchup ahead when they host the Oilers on Saturday.

Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Making season debut Thursday
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic will guard the road goal in Thursday's contest against the Blues, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.
Nedeljkovic will lead the Sharks onto the ice for the first time this season after dealing with an illness leading into Opening Night. He's backed up Yaroslav Askarov in all three contests thus far. The 30-year-old Nedeljkovic had a solid first season with San Jose in 2025-26, where he posted an 18-14-4 record, a 2.87 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 40 regular-season outings. If he impresses in his season debut in Thursday's outing against the Blues, the veteran netminder could be in line for more opportunities moving forward with Askarov's shaky start to the campaign.

Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Cruises to preseason shutout
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic posted a 21-save shutout in Thursday's 10-0 preseason win over the Ducks.
Nedeljkovic took care of his job, and the Sharks' offense did the rest. The 30-year-old netminder is poised to enter the season as Yaroslav Askarov's backup, but Nedeljkovic never went more than three games in a row without an appearance in 2025-26. Considering the Sharks are still on the rise, Nedeljkovic should have a good chance to match his 2.87 GAA and .896 save percentage from 40 games last year.

Sharks' Alex Nedeljkovic: Slated to start Thursday
Rotowire
Nedeljkovic is expected to start in Thursday's preseason home game against Anaheim.
Nedeljkovic had an 18-14-4 record, 2.87 GAA and .896 save percentage in 40 regular-season appearances with San Jose in 2025-26. Although Yaroslav Askarov is likely to enter the campaign as San Jose's No. 1 goaltender, Nedeljkovic is expected to get a significant chunk of the workload and might even be able to capture the top job if he outperforms Askarov early in the campaign.

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

Rotowire

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

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.

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