Andrei Vasilevskiy | Fantasy Outlook
Vasilevskiy confirmed in goal as Lightning host Kraken at Benchmark International Arena
Andrei Vasilevskiy gets the confirmed starting nod tonight as the Lightning host the Kraken at Benchmark International Arena. Serving as Tampa Bay's trusted workhorse in net, especially with backup Dennis Hildeby dealing with an illness, Vasilevskiy enters with three wins in five starts and a steady 2.40 GAA. The Lightning (4-2-0) enter as comfortable home favorites against a competitive Seattle squad (5-2-0) in a matchup expected to see a fairly high-scoring environment. At the other end, Seattle is slated to counter with Joey Daccord (unconfirmed).
Our daily projections anticipate a moderate workload for Vasilevskiy, expecting roughly 25 to 26 saves with a solid win chance, despite ratios pointing toward a slightly elevated 3.20 GAA and a .888 save percentage. Across this three-game weekly slate, Tampa Bay has one matchup remaining after tonight, giving him plenty of opportunity to compile steady fantasy points. Given Tampa Bay's strong home-ice advantage and his secure bell-cow volume, Vasilevskiy is a must-play fantasy anchor. Today’s action: Strong Start.
