Andrei Vasilevskiy Picks Up Fifth Shutout On Thursday
6 years agoTampa Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy blanked the visiting Dallas Stars on Thursday, coasting to a comfortable 6-0 victory to pick up his 24th win of the season. Vasilevskiy was handed a 4-0 lead by the end of the first period and never let up by stopping all 32 shots faced in the contest. The game wrapped up an excellent two-game series against the Stars this season in which the 24-year-old managed to turn aside all 77 shots against while collecting two shutouts. Vasilevskiy's success this season hasn't just been limited to games against the Stars, the talented netminder boasts a 2.39 goals-against average and a .927 save percentage on the campaign and has maintained his position as a top goalie in all of fantasy hockey. He'll look to keep rolling in his likely next start against the Canadiens on Saturday.
