The 31-year-old winger's eight shots were a season high, though he's had four or more shots in six of 11 games. He's up to nine goals, nine assists, 43 shots, a plus-6 rating, six hits and seven blocked shots while seeing reliable time on the first line and top power-play unit.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Records three points Wednesday
Kucherov scored a goal and delivered two assists in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.
Kucherov saw his eight-game point streak snapped in the 3-2 win over Nashville on Monday, but the star winger bounced back admirably and notched his fifth multi-point effort of the campaign Wednesday. Reliable both as a scorer and playmaker, the 31-year-old star forward is amid an outstanding start to the campaign with nine goals and eight assists across 10 contests. He's tied for second in goals and tied for fifth in points league-wide.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Extends season-opening streak
Kucherov had an assist in a 3-0 win over Washington on Saturday.
Kucherov has eight goals and six helpers during his eight-game point streak to begin the 2024-25 campaign. Unsurprisingly, he ranks among the top scorers in the NHL. Kucherov could be in the running for the Hart Trophy again after finishing as the runner-up last season, but it's very early into the year. Still, his performance has been outstanding, and it's unlikely he will slow down much as the season progresses.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Top sniper in NHL
Kucherov scored a goal Thursday in a 4-2 loss to the Wild.
Kucherov remains perfect on the season -- he's put up at least one point in each of Tampa Bay's seven games, and he's wired 30 shots on net. His eight goals (13 points) lead the NHL. Kucherov is already among the best Russian players to don an NHL uniform, and at 31, his game is still on the rise.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Season scoring streak at six games
Kucherov had an assist in Tuesday's 8-5 win over the Devils.
It extended his season-opening point streak to six games (seven goals, four assists). Kucherov is already in MVP form with seven goals and five assists in six games played. Expect his pace to slow some and especially his goal rate. Kucherov already has 29 shots, which puts him within reach of a 400-shot season, but his shooting percentage is a whopping 24.1. That's well above his career mark of 14.6. Still, this could be Kucherov's Hart season.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Point streak at five games
Kucherov notched an assist, four shots on goal and two hits in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Kucherov's four-game, seven-goal streak came to a close Monday, but he's still yet to be held off the scoresheet over five contests. The winger has 10 points, 26 shots on net, five hits and a plus-6 rating. With just three of his points coming on the power play, he could still grow his offense a little more than we've seen so far.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Record-setting goal streak
Kucherov extended his season-opening goal streak to four games with a goal in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Senators.
Kucherov became the first player in Lightning history with at least seven goals through their first four appearances of a season. That's heady territory considering the likes of Vincent Lecavalier, Martin St. Louis and Steven Stamkos have donned the Bolts' uniform. Kucherov has nine points this season, and his seven goals lead the NHL.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Extends season-opening goal streak
Kucherov scored two goals in a 4-3 win over Vegas on Thursday.
The second goal came with less than a minute left and stood as the winner. Kucherov fired the puck from close to the goal line on the left wing, and it ricocheted past Adin Hill. It was the kind of lucky goals that snipers get. Kucherov is riding a three-game, six-goal streak to start the season, and he's totaled seven points. He has 16 shots in those three appearances, and two of his goals were game-winners.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Nets opening goal Tuesday
Kucherov scored a goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.
Kucherov already has four goals and an assist through two games, and he's added 11 shots on net. The 31-year-old winger has avoided the slow start that's plagued some of the league's other superstars, though that advantage has been mitigated by a limited schedule so far after the Lightning's original home opener was postponed by Hurricane Milton. Kucherov produced a career year in 2023-24 with 44 goals and 100 assists over 81 regular-season appearances. It was also the first time he topped 300 shots on goal (306) and the second time he exceeded 50 power-play points (53). That raises some risk of regression, but Kucherov remains a clear top-five player in the NHL.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Records hat trick Friday
Kucherov notched a hat trick, including a power-play goal, and added a power-play assist in Friday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.
Kucherov couldn't have hoped for a better start to the season. He was directly involved in the Lightning's four goals while recording a natural hat trick in the third period across a nine-minute span that included two empty-netters. Kucherov had a career-best season in 2023-24 with 44 goals and 144 points across 81 regular-season appearances, and he's looking to take those numbers a step further in 2024-25.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Pots first goal of preseason
Kucherov scored the Lightning's only goal Wednesday in a 2-1 preseason OT loss to the Panthers.
With Tampa Bay down 1-0 late in the third period, Brayden Point won a faceoff in the Florida zone, and Kucherov blasted the feed past Spencer Knight on a one-timer. It was Kucherov's first goal this preseason, but after posting career highs with 44 goals and 144 points in 2023-24, the 31-year-old appears ready to come out flying out of the gates when the puck drops on the upcoming campaign.

Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Adds assist in loss
Kucherov posted an assist and two hits in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Panthers in Game 5.
Kucherov stayed hot in the postseason with seven assists over five games, but he wasn't able to put a puck past Sergei Bobrovsky. The 30-year-old Kucherov had an excellent 2023-24 season despite the early playoff exit, earning 44 goals and 100 assists in 81 regular-season appearances. He should continue to be one of the top right wings in the NHL heading into 2024-25.
