Coach Sullivan Announces Starting Goalie for Tonight's Game

After a few days of practice, the Penguins will look to bounce back from their tough 6-2 defeat against the Arizona Coyotes tonight in Pittsburgh.


The Pens' head coach Mike Sullivan revealed who he'll send between the pipes to face Matthew Tkachuk and Alexander Barkov.

Indeed, at the team's morning skate, we learned that Alex Nedeljkovic will get the start tonight.

"Alex Nedeljkovic is the first goalie off following Pittsburgh's morning skate, which means he'll likely make his first start since Jan. 11 vs. Vancouver."



His last start was on January 11th against the Canucks and he was replaced early in the game after allowing three goals on nine shots. Despite this fasle start, he has great numbers this season, with a 2.92 GAA and a .908 SV%.

He'll certainly try to get back on the right track tonight, as the Panthers will try to win their third straight game.

More to come.
