Vasilevskiy gave up three goals on 35 shots in the Lightning’s win over the Hurricanes on Sunday. Vasilevskiy gave up a goal in the final second of the game, making the box score look worse than it should have. It was a great season debut for the Lightning’s No. 1A goaltender. Vasilevskiy is a must pick up and must-start tonight vs. the Sabres.
Vasilevskiy won each of his two starts while posting a 1.00 GAA and .966 SV% during his conditioning stint with Syracuse (AHL). Two great performances show that Vasilevskiy is healthy and ready to make his season debut with the Lightning. The 21-year-old was 7-5-1 with a 2.36 GAA and .918 SV% with the Lightning last season.

Vasilevskiy went 2-0-0 with a 1.00 GAA and .966 SV% in two games during his conditioning stint. With the Lightning preparing to play in the second game of a back-to-back, Vasilevskiy has been recalled and is expected to start vs. the Hurricanes.
Vasilevskiy returned to practice on Monday after missing the start of the season with a blood clot near his collar bone. He reportedly looked exceptional in practice which is why he has already been sent on a conditioning stint after just two days of practice. Vasilevskiy is expected to make his season debut with Syracuse tonight and should play another game on the stint, before returning to Tampa Bay next week.
Vasilevskiy has missed the first nine games of the season with a blood clot, but returned to practice on Monday. Vasilevskiy will take over as the Lightning’s backup goalie as soon as he is ready to go, but he will likely head to the AHL for conditioning before he fully takes over. Kristen Gudlevskis will serve as Ben Bishop’s backup until Vasilevskiy is 100 percent.
Vasilevskiy had been skating but he will start practicing next week, which is a huge step in his return from a blood clot. He was originally expected to miss 2-3 months. If he returns at the front-end of that timetable, he would be back in the second week of November.
Vasilevskiy underwent vascular surgery to remove a blood clot near his collarbone on September 3rd, but returned to the ice this afternoon. Vasilevskiy is expected to miss 2-3 months from the date of his surgery, which would put him on target to return in early-November at the earliest. Ray Emery was brought in on a professional tryout to potentially serve as Ben Bishop’s backup while Vasilevskiy is on the shelf.
Vasilevskiy appeared poised to push Ben Bishop for starts right out of the gate, but he will now miss at least the first month of the season. For fantasy owners drafting Bishop, it would be wise to invest in the 21-year-old Vasilevskiy--especially now considering his draft-day value will be much lower.
Vasilevskiy is scheduled to get one start per week and with the Lightning on the tail-end of a back-to-back, he is expected to get the nod tonight vs. Toronto. Vasilevskiy made 33 saves in a 4-3 win over Florida in his last start. Vasilevskiy is an excellent option tonight against a Maple Leafs team who have lost seven of eight.

Tonight will be his one start of the week, that he is expected to get for the remainder of the season. He has won each of his last two starts while stopping 59 of 63 shots (.937 SV%). He has never faced the Jets and has never lost at home—3-0-0 / 2.02 GAA / .934 SV%.
Vasilevskiy stopped all 28 shots that he faced to earn his first career shutout on Tuesday vs. Buffalo. It was a big milestone for the 20-year-old who will continue to see starts down the stretch to keep Ben Bishop fresh. Tonight he will take on a Dallas team who may not play a lot of defence, but can score with the best of em.
Ben Bishop was slated to start tonight but he was reportedly not right after getting nicked up by a shot in the pregame skate. Warmups was all over the place, giving no one a real idea of who was actually starting. However, it was settled prior to puck drop as Vasilevskiy took the crease.
The Lightning want to make sure that Ben Bishop is mentally and physically ready for the playoffs, so they will give Vasilevskiy at least one start every week for the rest of the season. With 20 games left, he is looking at 6-10 starts the remainder of the way, making him a strong goalie add.
