Yesterday was a big day in Tampa Bay Lightning franchise history. While the playoffs didn’t go the way anyone wanted, two players received recognition for their outstanding regular seasons.
Andrei Vasilevskiy won the first Vezina trophy for the franchise in a landslide over former Lightning goalie Ben Bishop and Robin Lehner.
Vasilevskiy finished the season with a 39-10-4 record in 53 games played. He had a .925 SV%, 2.40 GAA, and six shutouts. He also had a 26.40 GSAA, the best of his career. Vasilevskiy added three assists to set a new career high.
