Bemstrom will be out on Wednesday vs. New York.

Bemstrom scored a goal in Monday's 4-2 win over the Nashville Predators, snapping a six-game pointless skid, but will draw out of the lineup for the Penguins' final game of the season. Bemstrom ends the 2023-24 campaign with 16 points (8G / 8A) in 56 games split between the Penguins and Columbus Blue Jackets.

Nedeljkovic will continue his reign over the Penguins crease as they continue their efforts towards making the final Wild-Card spot in the Eastern Conference. Nedeljkovic has allowed three or more goals in three straight (1-1-1), a skid that has potentially sealed the fate of the Penguins, highlighted by allowing three goals on 16 shots (.813 SV%) in an eventual 6-4 loss to the Boston Bruins on Saturday. The Penguins enter action as -125 home favourites.
