Point still looks like he's skating cautiously. Why should Tampa mess with what's got them here the last 3 games? Unless he's significantly better than his previous performance I wouldn't play him.

Father time in the lightning board we always know he will get a hook, holding, or a slashing penalty in a game. We call it the daily killer special

He looks much slower out there this year. I don't think he's gotten enough time to recover from his broken leg from last playoffs. He was good to go in training camp but I don't think he's really gotten a chance to rebuild the strength in that leg. It took Stamkos a couple of years to get back to his normal self.

...puck luck is puck luck...bad goaltending is far more concerning...
Kucherov is a great player who should never be allowed near a microphone.

He's Russian and not a native English speaker, so maybe he doesn't feel that comfortable. Plus, some Russians have dry senses of humor so maybe it just doesn't translate well in English.
Obviously I'm not grading him on his english. But Pavel Datsyuk's english was horrible, and yet you could tell the guy was sharp and had a great sense of humour behind the language barrier. Kucherov... not so much.
Maybe there are quotes where he sounds more thoughtful; the ones I've heard are pretty cringe. No harm intended. Not every player is as intelligent off the ice as they are on.

I think he is kind of shy with the cameras, but I am only guessing based on his mannerisms while giving speeches vs how he interacts with his team mates.

It's not a hook, it's a curled clasp.

f*** that was bad.. painful
As a neutral fan, I hope it goes 7. These two teams are very good and the last couple games have been fantastic viewing.

Are you insinuating the Avs were the better team in a 6-2 loss?

With how bad they were playing that game, I think getting two was pretty lucky

I don’t care what he sounds like doing interviews if he keeps playing like he has. Plus his media talks tend to be legendary
