1 day agoTampa Bay Lightning right wing Nikita Kucherov tallied a goal and two assists during their overtime victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday evening. Kucherov tallied the primary assist on Mitchell Chaffee's power-play strike in the opening frame. Later in the third, Kucherov would add another primary assist on the man advantage, this time on Jake Guentzel's goal. In overtime, Kucherov would play the hero as he scored the game-winner on the power-play. This performance extended his current point streak to 11 games. During this stretch, the 31-year-old has tallied 19 points (six goals, 13 helpers), with eight of the points coming on the power-play.
