Nedeljkovic will start in New York on Monday.

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. The Penguins enter action as +162 road underdogs against the league-leading Rangers.

Toffoli (illness) will be a game-time decision on Monday vs. Los Angeles.

Toffoli is battling an illness and his status is up in the air for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Kings. After a hot start with the Jets, Toffoli has struggled to find his place on his new team, being held off the scoresheet during a six-game losing skid.

Brossoit will start Monday vs. the Kings.

The struggling Jets have lost six straight and will turn to Brossoit between the pipes on Monday against the Los Angeles Kings. Brossoit's last start was on March 21st when he allowed three goals on 40 shots (.925 SV%) in a 4-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils. Despite their recent struggles, the Jets enter action as -114 home favourites against the Kings.

Liljegren (upper body) is out week-to-week but expected to return for the playoffs.

Liljegren was a late scratch on Thursday ahead of game time due to an upper-body injury and is not expected to be out week-to-week but is luckily expected to return before the playoffs. The 24-year-old had been playing exceptionally as of late with six points (1G/5A) in his last seven games while occupying Toronto's top powerplay unit.

Liljegren (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups for Thursday's game against the Capitals.

Liljegren is a surprise scratch for Thursday's game as the team gave no indications of a potential injury prior to warmups. His absence makes way for the return to Giordano (concussion), and Connor Timmins will likely move up to the top power-play unit in his place.
