Nikita Kucherov News: Assault on record books continues
Kucherov scored a goal and added two assists in a 6-3 win over the Penguins on Thursday.
It was Kucherov's 19th game with at least three points this season and tied the great Peter Stastny (1982-83) for the seventh-most in a single season by a player born outside North America. Kucherov sits two points behind Connor McDavid (126) for the NHL scoring lead. Kucherov's 1.80 points per game played remains the best of the best. He has a chance to win the Art Ross trophy again. He earned it in 2024-25 (121 points).
