Andrei Vasilevskiy Battling Minor Injuries
1 year agoTampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy has missed the start of training camp because he's dealing with minor injuries. Head coach Jon Cooper considers him day-to-day and doesn't think the former Vezina Trophy winner will be out long-term. Vasilevskiy also had injury issues late last term, so understandably, the team wants to have him 100 percent healthy before throwing him on the ice. Last season, the Russian netminder registered his worst goals-against average (2.65) and save percentage (.915) since becoming a full-time starter in 2016-17, but he still had a strong 34-22-4 record with four shutouts.
