Player Discussion: Nikita Kucherov - Part 3

[Peacefool]

By April, 45 goals, 125 assists, 170pts

IDC

If we trade Stammer with 75% retention than Kuch will have like 250 points xD

 

[Rschmitz]

The way our PP has been playing recently, it’s almost not even worth dreaming up the scenario anymore.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Kuch is now just one point behind MacKinnon for 2nd in the league in scoring. Kuch missed two games and Colorado has played three more games than the Lightning.

He’s first in P/GP (1.75) trailed by McDavid (1.57), Kaprizov (1.55), Drai and MacK (both 1.52) and Point (1.46).

Goonerov the villain strikes again

[JFedol]

Bro's a mere 59pts away from a casual 1000pts lol. Unreal of a player

 

[JFedol]

Hoping he SHITs on Montreal tonight, bro needs to reclaim that Hart and Art Ross from Duekinnon of all players lmao. f*** that Canadian dickhead

 

[Soul Assumption]

When Kucherov doesn't have a multi-point game, there's just zero chance of beating anyone.

10 out of 27 wins have come with Kucherov scoring 1 point or being held without one.

*checks posters username*

Oh, just another L take and lie. Lol.

[JoVel]

He also equaled and passed Marty in points with his first and second assists.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

just to compare the pace he's on this year to last year



through the first 55 games of the season:

2024-25 : 25g + 57a = 82 points
2023-24 : 36g + 57a = 93 points

 

[The Macho King]

He hasn't had many chunk point games this season. Whole lot of 1 or 2 point nights - last season there were a ton of 4+ nights it felt like.

He doesn't have Stamkos as his personal cheat code anymore unfortunately, still good for a 125+pt pace though even without Mid-kos

 

[JFedol]

Sucks that he was injured with that upper body injury, Montreal is a just a team that deserves to be SHIT ON, idgaf what anybody says. Bro 100% missed out on a 7pt demolishing. Needs to take over at some point considering McDavids bare ass being right behind him. I seriously don't think any other player aside from McDavid or MacKinnon come close to sniffing this production.

Is he shooting less, or less successfully, or both?

 

[JFedol]

Has to be shooting less

 

[JoVel]

Has to be shooting less

Last year he was shooting more than any other season in his career, but shooting % is about average both this season and last.
