Nikita Kucherov Crushes Columbus With Four Points
2 years agoTampa 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.
