Andrei Vasilevskiy underwent a back surgery that'll keep him off the ice for 8 to 10 weeks.
Per Kevin Weekes:
This puts the Lightning in a horrible situation.
Now, the Bolts are in a tough spot. They'll need to either rely on Jonas Johansson, their number two goalie, or make a trade.
A few goalies are still available on the market and the Avs could devide to go and get one.
Jaroslav Halak might be their best option here. Would you like to see that happen?
