Nikita Kucherov News
Tampa Bay Lightning forward Nikita Kucherov had a strong game against the Boston Bruins on Thursday, recording a goal and two assists. The 29-year-old Russian winger has been one of the Lightning's top players this season, and his performance against the Bruins helped the team secure a 3-2 victory. Kucherov has been a consistent offensive threat for the Lightning, with 20 goals and 51 assists in 41 games this season. With his performance on Thursday, Kucherov continues to demonstrate why he is one of the best players in the league.
Tampa Bay Lightning right wing Nikita Kucherov produced his second four-point effort of the season Tuesday against Columbus, pushing the team to a 6-3 victory with two goals and two assists. Three of his point came on the power play, and he finished with his fourth game-winning goal of the season. Kucherov has been hot all year, going scoreless in only seven games, and he has tied Connor McDavid for the most assists in the league (47). In 39 outings, the Russian winger has also tallied 19 goals with 139 shots on the net. Kucherov's shooting percentage is noticeably lower than his career average, meaning his goal-scoring rate should improve during the latter half of the season.
Tampa Bay Lightning right wing Nikita Kucherov grabbed three assists in Friday's 5-2 victory over St. Louis. One of his helpers came with the man advantage. The former MVP registered his 27th career three-assist game, which marks the second most among all players since Kucherov entered the league in 2013-14. Kucherov has now gone for three points twice in his past three games, bouncing back quickly after seeing an 11-game point streak end. He moved fifth on the league's scoring list and took over the third spot on the assists list. Through 20 games, Kucherov has been able to get 10 goals and 21 assists. He joined Leon Draisaitl as the only players this season with at least 10 goals and 20 assists.
Tampa Bay Lightning right wing Nikita Kucherov had his goal streak cut at six games on Tuesday versus Edmonton, but he managed to record an assist in a 6-2 defeat and is now tied with New Jersey's Jesper Bratt for the longest point streak of the season. Kucherov took his run to 11 games when he combined with Brayden Point to set up Brandon Hagel, who scored his fifth goal in eight games. It marks Kucherov's 15th assist of the season and only two players in the league have managed more. The former MVP is doing MVP things, sitting third in the league's scoring charts with 21 points in 13 games. Kucherov's form will now be tested by Washington in back-to-back games. He has notched 24 points in his previous 22 career appearances against the Capitals.
