The Lightning Go With Andrei Vasilevskiy Against Predators
7 years agoTampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy will start Sunday night against the Nashville Predators. In what could be a Stanley Cup Final preview, Vasilevskiy will return to the net after sitting out the Lightning's last game. He has been given a bit more rest recently, only playing in three of Tampa Bay's last five games, but the extra rest has not led to better results as he has only one win in those three starts and a .891 save percentage. Nashville is coming off of a 7-4 loss on Saturday night to the Buffalo Sabres, which should play into the favor of the comparably well-rested Lightning. With only five games scheduled for Sunday, options are limited, but Vasilevskiy finds himself in a less than favorable situation.
