This morning Darren Dreger reported that Tampa Bay Lightning starting goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy has a fractured left foot. News is still developing on this story. As of this writing, Dreger has been corroborated by Joe Smith, who softened the blow a little by saying that Vasilevskiy is “being evaluated,” and that more news will emerge later today.
We are awaiting further confirmation from the team, as well as news of a recall to replace Vasilevskiy on the roster.
Tough break for the Lightning. No pun intended. Sounds like Andrei Vasilevsky fractured his left foot and will be out for awhile.
