Lightning's Nikita Kucherov: Second straight three-point game

Kucherov put up a goal and two assists Thursday in a 7-4 win over Montreal.

It was Kucherov's second straight three-point game and his 21st of the season. He extended his NHL-leading point total to 133 (43 goals, 90 assists). Kucherov also leads the NHL with 47 power-play points, three ahead of Nathan MacKinnon. But Mack is in hot pursuit of both the overall points lead and power-play points lead. The Art Ross Trophy title is going to come right down to the wire.
