Nikita Kucherov went pointless for the third time this NHL season as Tampa Bay lost 3:6 to Colorado in a regular season game. The Tampa forward logged 20 minutes and 43 seconds of ice time. Of that, 7 minutes and 49 seconds came on the power play. Despite the heavy workload with a man advantage, he finished with only two shots on goal. The game sheet also credited him with three giveaways and a rating of minus 1. Kucherov normally drives the Lightning attack, so an evening without a single point stands out. Zero-point games have now happened to him three times this season.
