Andrei Vasilevskiy Takes On Panthers In Season Opener
6 years agoTampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy will start between the pipes for the team in their season opener on Saturday against Florida. He'll be among the Vezina Trophy favorites this year after just missing out on it last season, even after an outstanding year which featured a franchise-record eight shutouts in a single season. He had a 44-17-3 record overall in 65 games with a 2.62 goals-against average and a .920 save percentage. However, he hasn't done too well against the Panthers during his young career, going 5-3-1 in 10 appearances, allowing 3.16 goals per game with a .907 save percentage, so there's a bit of risk involved for fantasy owners starting him.
