Andrei Vasilevskiy News

Vasilevskiy did not need to be spectacular in Tampa Bay's previous outing, saving 21 of 24 shots (.875 SV%) in a 6-3 win over the Minnesota Wild. The 31-year-old goalie has not been his dominant self lately, going 6-5-0 with a pedestrian 3.02 GAA and .886 SV% in 11 games (6-5-0) since the end of February. Tampa Bay, in a race for the top seed in the Atlantic Division, enters Thursday's contest as significant -296 home favourites against an offensively challenged Seattle Kraken team that has scored two or fewer goals in five of its last eight games (2-5-1).

Still, Tampa Bay enters Monday's contest as significant -235 home favourites against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has lost four of seven games since the Olympic break (3-1-3).

The Lightning will unsurprisingly turn to Vasilevskiy between the pipes when they return from the Olympic break to host the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. Vasilevskiy was on an absolute heater prior to the break, posting a .937 SV% and a perfect 8-0-0 record over his last eight starts.

Tampa Bay has been among the hottest teams in the NHL over the last two months and, even with Vasilevskiy recording an uncharacteristically low sub- .900 SV% in his last two games, has still salvaged victories. That said, the minor blip in Vasilevskiy's past two outings is overshadowed by a magnificent three-month stretch in which he has posted a dazzling 1.77 GAA and .930 SV% in 24 games (21-2-1). Tampa Bay enters the action on Thursday as -180 home favourites against a Florida Panthers team that defeated the Boston Bruins 5-4 last night in a shootout.
