According to Benjamin Pierce of the Tampa Bay Lightning, goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy (illness) is viewed as a game-time decision on Thursday for their contest against the Los Angeles Kings. No. 2 goaltender Jonas Johansson (lower body) is also in questionable status for this game. As a result, the team recalled Matt Thompkins from the AHL to potentially get the starting nod. Over his past four contests, Vasilevskiy has posted a 2-2 record with a .938% SV and a 1.99 GAA. Thompkins has not seen NHL action this season but did appear in six games in 2023. Across this small stint, Thompkins posted a .892% SV with a 3.33 GAA. Vasilevskiy would be a top pick in DFS if he can turn the corner; if not, Thompkins would carry high risk in his first start of the season and would be best to fade in all formats.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
