Playing career[]

Kucherov played for Krasnaya Armiya of the Russian Junior Hockey League, the junior team of CSKA Moscow starting in the 2009–10. He spent three seasons with the team, and made his professional debut in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) during this time, playing 27 KHL games over the 2010–11 and 2011–12 seasons. In the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, he was selected 58th overall by the Tampa Bay Lightning. In an attempt to transition to the North American style, Kucherov played major junior hockey with the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). He signed a three-year entry level contract with the Lightning on 10 September 2012 while playing in the QMJHL.[2]

Tampa Bay Lightning[]

Arrival in Tampa and "The Triplets" (2013–2017)[]

Kucherov made his NHL debut on 25 November 2013 against the New York Rangers. He scored a goal on his first shot, on his first shift, against Henrik Lundqvist; he was the seventh player in Lightning history to score a goal in his NHL debut.[3] On 28 October 2014, he recorded his first career hat trick against Mike Smith of the Arizona Coyotes.[4]

During the 2014–15 season, Kucherov had a breakout season with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Playing on a line with Tyler Johnson and Ondrej Palat (later dubbed the "Triplets" line), Kucherov posted 29 goals, 36 assists, and 65 points. Kucherov also tied for the NHL lead in plus-minus with Max Pacioretty at a +38 rating. The +38 rating also set the Lightning single season franchise record for +/- rating.[5] On 20 May 2015, Kucherov joined Martin St. Louis as the only players in Lightning history to record two game-winning goals in overtime in a single playoff year, having scored a winner that evening against the New York Rangers; he had scored one in Game 1 of the prior round against the Montreal Canadiens.[6] Kucherov and the Triplets would prove to one of the most dangerous lines in hockey during Tampa Bay's run to the 2015 Stanley Cup Finals, in which they would lose to the Chicago Blackhawks in six games. During the run, Kucherov scored 10 goals and 22 points.

On 11 October 2016, the Lightning re-signed Kucherov to a three-year, $14.3 million contract.[7] In the previous season, Kucherov led the team in points (66) and was second in assists (36) and goals (30). Kucherov also set a career high in goals, points, power-play goals (9) and game-winning goals (4). He also ranked second on the team in shots (209) and power-play goals, while also leading the team with 19 multi-point games. He also skated in 17 Stanley Cup playoff games with the Lightning last season, scoring 11 goals and 19 points to go along with a +13 rating. He led the team during the playoffs in goals and points. He also finished second for goals and sixth for points in playoff scoring.[7]

In doing so, Kucherov became the sixth player in the modern era (since 1943−1944) to score in each of their team's first seven games.[21] Kucherov's goal scoring streak was ended the following game.[22] On 26 October 2017, Kucherov recorded a point in his 11th consecutive game to start the season.
