Vasilevskiy made 17 saves in a 3-2 overtime win over Pittsburgh on Tuesday. Vasilevskiy wasn't really busy. The first goal was a tap-in from the back door in the first period that was the result of blown coverage by Michael Eyssimont; Vasy didn't have a chance. Rickard Rakell scored on a one-timer from his knee on a second-period power play to put the Pens up 2-0. Vasilevskiy has won three straight games with just three goals allowed and one shutout for good measure. His 2.13 GAA puts him second on the NHL goalie list, and his .919 save percentage is good for seventh overall. Vasilevskiy is back to elite form after last year's back surgery. Use him well.

Vasilevskiy is set to tend the twine on the road against the Penguins on Tuesday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports. Vasilevskiy is coming off a 29-save shutout performance versus the Devils on Saturday, which earned him his eighth victory of the campaign. Through 14 appearances this year, the 30-year-old Russian is sporting a career-best 2.15 GAA and will likely find himself in contention for the Vezina Trophy if he continues to compete at this level moving forward.

Vasilevskiy made 29 saves in a 4-0 win over the Devils on Saturday. The shutout was Vasilevskiy's second of the season and 36th in the NHL. Those 36 shutouts since his debut in 2014-15 tie him for third-most among all netminders behind Marc-Andre Fleury (47) and Connor Hellebuyck (40). He was also honored before Saturday's match for earning his 300th win on Thursday. Vasilevskiy has won two straight games while allowing just two goals in his last three outings (2-0-1). He sits third with a 2.15 GAA, and his .920 save percentage is top-10 in the NHL. The old Vasy is back!

Vasilevskiy will protect the home goal versus the Devils on Saturday, Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun reports. Vasilevskiy ended a three-game skid Thursday with a 4-1 win over the Jets, stopping 23 of 24 shots to earn his 300th career win. The 30-year-old will take on another hot opponent in the Devils, who have scored 22 goals over their last six games.

Vasilevskiy made 24 saves in a 4-1 win over Winnipeg on Thursday. Vasilevskiy became the fastest goalie to reach 300 NHL wins. He hit the milestone in 490 games, shattering the record set by Jacques Plante (521 games). It was Vasilevskiy's first win in November, and it came against the NHL's hottest teams. Expect him to carry a heavy workload this season ahead of Jonas Johansson and perhaps get into the NHL's top-30 in wins overall by April. He's 7-5-1 and needs 24 more to tie Sean Burke (324) for 30th overall.
