Tampa Bay Lightning forward Nikita Kucherov is having the kind of season that should yield a number of awards, while the Eastern Conference powerhouse club has its eyes on the biggest prizes. Winners of five straight and seven of its last nine, Tampa Bay (44-11-4) opens a two-game road trip when it plays at the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena on Monday night.

It was top priority before Pastrnak fell and hurt himself last weekend and it's still the top priority now for a team that's been in the bottom third of the NHL in even-strength offense for most of the season.

There were many fine (and not-so-fine) plays to take away from Tampa Bay's 6-0 onslaught of the Stars on Thursday, but this straight-up insulting display of puck control and finish by the Lightning captain was in a realm of its own. With the Bolts already up five-zip and on a power play near the end of the second frame, it was ankle-breaking time for Stamkos who buried his second of the game after sending Andrew Cogliano flying into the boards with a vicious head fake. Another angle shows the carnage up close and personal: There are two factors at play here that make this so ridiculous. Continue to Article
