Andrei Vasilevskiy Remains Unbeaten Versus Red Wings
4 years agoTampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy notched his 23rd win of the season on Saturday, stopping 25 of 26 shots in a 2-1 victory over the Red Wings. The 2019 Vezina Trophy winner just loves to frustrate Detroit, as he now has a 12-0-0 career record in the matchup with a 1.77 goals-against average and a .938 save percentage. The NHL record for the longest winning streak against one opponent from the start of a career belongs to Antero Niittymaki, who beat the Atlanta Thrashers 17 consecutive times from 2004 to 2010. The Lightning plays Detroit again on Sunday, but it looks highly likely that backup Curtis McElhinney will start this one.
