Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevsky wasn't a finalist for the 2022 Vezina Trophy, but he's making his claim as the best goaltender in the NHL even stronger than it was coming into this season.
With the 2-0 victory over Florida, Vasilevsky and the Lightning swept the Panthers to eliminate them from the postseason. However, with the shutout, the netminder has put himself at the top of a very impressive NHL record:
That was Vasilevsky's sixth shutout in a series-clinching game which is just absurd. Not only is he the best goalie in the NHL right now, but he's making his case as one of the most clutch goaltenders in Stanley Cup playoff history.
