With two weeks left in the NHL regular season, it’s time to take a look at some of the Lightning stars and see if any of them can bring in some individual hardware. In this piece, we’ll look at everyone’s favorite goaltender, Andrei Vasilevskiy, and his case for a Vezina Trophy.
We’ll look at a variety of statistics to come to a conclusion. Before we begin let’s get some of the noise eliminated from the conversation. It’s always befuddled me why wins and goals against average (GAA) are so important to the general managers (the group who votes for this award) when those are team stats more than a goaltender’s.
