Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: Will start Monday

Vasilevskiy led the team onto the ice for pregame warmups Monday and thus will start against the Senators, Erik Erlendsson of Lightning Insider reports.

Analysis:

Vasi will be looking to put an end to end to a five-game losing streak in this one. He's allowed 14 goals during that cold spell, which has inflated his GAA 2.81 on the season. With the newly acquired Peter Budaj likely to be breathing down his neck in the Bolts' crease, he'll need to turn things around in short order. He'll face an Ottawa squad that's averaged 2.60 goals per game this year, good for 19th in the league.
