Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy: Collects win despite short roster

Vasilevskiy allowed four goals on 36 shots in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Kings.

Vasilevskiy faced some adversity Tuesday -- due to injuries on the blue line and cap constraints, the Lightning were only able to dress four defensemen. Three of the four goals Vasilevskiy allowed came in the second period, when the long line change is in effect. The Russian netminder still extended his winning streak to four games, and he's now 23-6-3 with a 2.20 GAA and a .923 save percentage through 32 outings. If necessary, the Lightning will be allowed to make emergency recalls for Friday's game versus the Ducks, so Vasilevskiy should have a full defense corps in front of him for his next start.
