Daily Faceoff’s Mike McKenna posted a list ranking every NHL team’s goaltending pairs, and he gives the Red Wings’ tandem of Ville Husso and Alex Nedeljkovic a right-in-the-middle-of-the-rankingd, well, ranking:
15. Detroit Red Wings: Ville Husso & Alex Nedeljkovic: I think the Red Wings might have the most intriguing tandem in the NHL. Husso is fresh off a breakout season with the St. Louis Blues. And Nedeljkovic just endured a year behind one of the worst NHL defenses I’ve seen in quite some time. The two netminders are different stylistically. Husso is very structured. Nedeljkovic plays with more flow and can jumpstart a breakout with his puckhandling. Both are looking to establish themselves as true No. 1 goaltenders in the NHL. There is motivation and opportunity aplenty in the Motor City.
