Vasilevskiy turned aside 21 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 preseason OT loss to the Panthers.

The veteran netminder was beaten through the five-hole by 20-year-old prospect Sandis Vilmanis on a quick shot from the slot just 15 seconds into the extra frame, but Vasilevskiy was generally sharp in his first preseason action. He's won at least 30 games in seven straight seasons for Tampa Bay, and there's little reason to think Vasilevskiy's streak will get snapped in 2024-25.
