Nedeljkovic will start Wednesday vs. the Sabres.

Nedeljkovic was called upon in a relief role last game but stopped all 12 shots he faced as his Red Wings would eventually lose to Toronto despite his best efforts to keep the game close. The 26-year-old has struggled in his second year in Detroit, posting a 2-3-1 record with a 4.01 GAA and .880 SV%. He takes on the Buffalo Sabres who are in the middle of a two-game skid and have lost eight of their last 10 contests.

Nedeljkovic will be looking to bounce back after a six-goal, 35-save (.854 SV%) loss against the New Jersey Devils his last time out. Nedeljkovic has struggled this season as he has taken a back seat to Ville Husson. He hopes to improve his ugly .890 SV% and 3.96 GAA. He faces an offensively strong Sabres team coming off a 4-3 overtime win over Chicago. Buffalo surprisingly ranks 5th in the NHL in goals for per game (3.63).

Nedeljkovic will likely start Friday in Chicago.

Nedeljkovic stopped 37 of 39 shots in an impressive 5-2 victory vs New Jersey in his only start of the season. He backed up Ville Husso in the Red Wings' 5-4 overtime loss Monday, the last time the Wings took the ice. They head to Chicago for a very good matchup as they take on a weak Blackhawks team who ranks 29th in the NHL in GF (2.33) and 31st in SOG (23.0).
