Nedeljkovic scores, assists in Penguins' 5-2 victory

News summary

In a remarkable game, Pittsburgh Penguins' goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic made NHL history by becoming the first goalie to score a goal and record an assist in the same game, leading his team to a 5-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres. Nedeljkovic made 40 saves and assisted on Cody Glass's second-period goal before sealing the win with an empty-net goal in the final minutes. This performance comes after the Penguins waived Tristan Jarry, allowing Nedeljkovic to take over as the primary goaltender. The Penguins, who had been struggling, needed this win to stay in the playoff race, now sitting just three points behind the final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. Alongside Nedeljkovic, Bryan Rust and Cody Glass each contributed a goal and an assist, helping the team to end a three-game losing streak. The victory marked an important step for the Penguins as they aim to reclaim their place in the postseason.
