Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: Tending twine Tuesday

Vasilevskiy will be in the blue paint against Columbus on Tuesday, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

Vasilevskiy is riding a four-game winning streak in which he has logged a 0.75 GAA with a pair of shutouts. With regular starter Ben Bishop struggling, winless in his last three, it seems the Lightning are going give Vasilevskiy some additional opportunities. As long as the 22-year-old continues to succeed, the trade rumors surrounding this tandem are not going to go away any time soon.
