Andrei Vasilevskiy Signs Big Deal With Tampa Bay
5 years agoGoaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy signed an eight-year, $76 million contract extension ($9.5 million AAV) to remain with the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday. The 25-year-old netminder, fresh off winning the Vezina Trophy as the NHL's top puckstopper, will become the third-highest paid goaltender in the league when his extension kicks in prior to the 2020-2021 campaign. Vasilevskiy has evolved into a near indisputable first-round fantasy selection as supported by his 39 wins, 2.40 goals-against average, .925 save percentage and six shutouts last season. Playing on one of the league's top teams in Tampa, Vasilevskiy is primed for yet another excellent season in 2019-2020.
