BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Alex Nedeljkovic remembers admiring the way Marty Turco and Martin Brodeur handled the puck during ... to have a goal and an assist in a game during the Pittsburgh Penguins' 5-2 win against the Buffalo Sabres.

San Jose Sharks star forward Macklin Celebrini grew up idolizing Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, and on Monday, the two will play against each other for the second time.

Pittsburgh Penguins’ Alex Nedeljkovic is first goaltender in NHL history to score and pick up assist in same game

Forty-year-old Minnesota Wild netminder Marc-Andre Fleury keeps making history. On Monday night, Minnesota Wild goalie Marc-Andre Fleury tied another NHL record, further cementing his case as a future first-ballot Hall of Famer.

Penguins netminder Alex Nedeljkovic made history in a pair of ways. With roughly three minutes left in the game, the Sabres pulled their goalie for an extra attacker. Nedeljkovic collected a dumped puck and took a shot at the empty net, successfully scoring the NHL's most recent goalie goal.

Former and current teammates love the fun and shenanigans the future Hall of Famer brings to the locker room. But think twice about retaliation.

Fleury is 12-6-3 with a 2.67 goals-against average, .911 save percentage and two shutouts in 21 games at Bell Centre. In his most recent game in Montreal on Oct. 17, 2023, he made 26 saves for the Wild in a 5-2 win. Named the first star of the game, he saluted the crowd, which continued chanting his name after the final buzzer.

They helped broker the trade between the Avalanche and Hurricanes because by doing so they could get a third-round draft pick for Taylor Hall, who is in the last season of his contract and is a pending unrestricted free agent.

That’s the feeling of Maple Leafs goaltender Matt Murray and winger Ryan Reaves, who have had the pleasure of calling Fleury a teammate in the National Hockey League.

It takes one to know one. Sidney Crosby, the 2005 first-overall pick, was effusive in his praise of Macklin Celebrini, the 2024 first-overall pick, before Crosby’s Pittsburgh Penguins take on Celebrini’s Sharks at SAP Center on Monday night.
