The Russian goaltender for Tampa, Andrei Vasilevskiy, secured his 35th victory in regular season games this calendar year (2025) during the match against St. Louis (4:1).
As reported by the league’s press service, the 31-year-old Russian reached an equal standing with Dallas netminder Jake Oettinger in this statistic and now shares the top spot with him.
Should Vasilevskiy take sole possession of first place by the end of 2025, it would mark the third time in his career (previously in 2020 and 2021)—this would be a record achievement among active NHL goalies.
In the 2025/26 season, Vasilevskiy’s average goals-against average is 2.27, and his save percentage stands at 91.43.
