Player Discussion: Nikita Kucherov - Part 3

[CupsOverCash]

22nd best player league, what a bum!

What bs rank is that from?

What bs rank is that from?

I think it was THN's or some garbage. It was hilariously bad.

I think it was THN's or some garbage. It was hilariously bad.

If only Kuch could be half as good as Demigod Matthews.

 

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

If only Kuch could be half as good as Demigod Matthews.

Or a quarter as good as Barzal

If only Kuch could be half as good as Demigod Matthews.

Half as good with twice as many cups. Sounds like this Kucherov guy is a gamer and Matthews is a floater.

Two is not twice as many as zero. It's infinitely more.

 

[Felonious Python]

 

[RussianGuyovich]

he's good, OP.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Kuch with 3 goals and 9 points in his last two games!

The team only got 1 point in those games though.

 

[StammerHammer]

Three points. They beat Ottawa.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Three points. They beat Ottawa.

Didn’t feel like a win.

 

[JoVel]

In not so Kucherov fashion he's among the top goal scorers so far too.

So he'll probably get 0 goals and 20 assists in the next 10 games.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Leading the league in points now!

 

[Felidae]

Thought Tampa fans would appreciate this compilation of his passing plays from last year including ones that didn't result in goals, which is partly why I'm eager to share. Great channel for those types of plays in general.

Thanks for sharing! I could watch him inflate his linemates’ goal totals for hours.

 

[JoVel]

Nice video. I also appreciate this guy's optimism in the comments.

 

[Sky04]

Stamkos misses so many golden chances.

 

[Byrddog]

Pacing for 63 goals and 139 points.

Did Kucherov channel his inner Gretzky again last night or what? I'm not comparing the two. Just the execution of what Kucherov did. That's the stuff that makes you famous and Gretzky just made it routine is all

 

[Pierre Larouche]

Typical lazy Russian. Can't believe we drafted this bum.

Yeah, they have no passion, are like robots, just want to dump and chase the puck, just want to shoot, never want to pass, never have any emotion, are robots, etc, etc. Hockey racism and bigotry at its finest.

Kuch is the best player in the NHL.

Who's his drinking buddy now Maroon is gone? Could be the reason he is training hard, as nothing else to do.

?

 

[Pierre Larouche]

A great read from start to finish.

Nothing more Kuch than everyone else after 3 straight finals talking about using the off-season as a chance to finally rest and recover while Kuch is just like I’ll work ever harder. And according to Krenn he was on the ice a week after their season ended too.

Really interesting to see he’s training with Adam Oates and I hope he continues to take Groshev under his wing when training camp rolls around.

Oates was an amazing player and passer, playmaker- I'm so excited that Kuch found him and his wealth of information. A perfect meld. Oates hasn't received enough accolades for his amazing play in my opinion.

Russia bad

CCCP bad- robots- no passion- too much passing- no heart- robotic- blah blah blah bullsh*t.

 

[Pierre Larouche]

True. Stamkos just isn't a great winger.

He's pretty much a 97-100% shooter. Sure he can pass but it's not his forté.

what does that mean, I don't understand?

That is odd to me lol, Kuch is reputed to be one of the most hard working and dedicated players on our team. On and off the ice. Guess he really evolved during his career

Did Stevey Y call Kuch "fat?"
