Jarry was originally slated to get the start against the Rangers on Monday but was ultimately a late scratch as he deals with an illness. Alex Nedeljkovic will get instead get the start, and the Penguins will likely be forced into dressing an Emergency Backup Goaltender.

In a surprise turn of events, Nedeljkovic will make his fifth-straight start after all when the Penguins take on the Rangers in New York on Monday. Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan confirmed earlier today Tristan Jarry would get the start, only for Nedeljkovic to lead the team out for warmups. It was later reported that Jarry is dealing with an illness. Nedeljkovic owns a .906 SV% and a 12-6-6 record in 29 appearances this season.
