Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: Gets starting nod Monday

Vasilevskiy will man the crease against the Islanders on Monday, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

Vasilevskiy dominated the Isles on Thursday, as he allowed just one puck to find the back of the net on 32 shots. The 22-year-old gets the opportunity to repeat his performance Monday. Although his chances have been limited, the netminder has managed a 3-1-1 record with a 1.99 GAA. If he continues to excel for the Lightning, Ben Bishop trade rumors will inevitably pick up steam heading into the 2017 calendar year.
