With Cam Ward and Eddie Lack locks for the upcoming season for the Carolina Hurricanes, Alex Nedeljkovic is aiming to make the Charlotte Checkers full time. Unfortunately with two solid goaltenders on the Carolina Hurricanes, it’s unlikely Nedeljkovic will get a chance to shine.
Alex Nedeljkovic signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Hurricanes in March 2015. He made his pro hockey debut with the ECHL’s Florida Everblades following his junior season with the Plymouth Whalers. He was 2-1 with a 3.38 goals against and .841 save percentage for the Everblades. Nedeljkovic suffered a thumb injury during summer training, missing the Hurricanes development camp and the USA Hockey Evaluation Camp in Lake Placid.
