Now that Stamkos is out, looks like Kucherov will be next in line for a call up?

 

[Butchered]

I'd bet Namestnikov over Kucherov at this point. Namestnikov is more seasoned in the AHL and he's a center.

I see Vladdy getting the call first and then seeing if guys like Connolly, Panik and Purcell can pick up their offensive games. If they hurt for offense, throw Kucherov in there and see what happens.

True, but I was thinking they would be looking for a guy more likely to help replace the goals that Stamkos scores. Kucherov is more likely than Namestnikov. Also, I noticed that Killorn is listed as a center. Maybe they could put him back there?

Killorn hasn't played centre in the NHL. Considering last year was so short, he's practically still a rookie. The few draws he has taken do not bear good results. All young guys tend to suck in the dot. I don't see Killorn being shifted over. Most likely scenario is C's get bumped and a 4th line player is called up.

The TBLightning have recalled forward JT Brown and defenseman Dmitry Korobov from the Syracuse Crunch.

Cool. Excited to watch these guys.

According to his brother on twitter he's been called up to the Lightning.

I have some insight info. Just got a call from my brother, he's going to Tampa today. #callup #kucherov #nhl #tampa @BoltProspects

Not the best source but it definitely is his brother.

Looks like he'll be on the second line with Killorn and Purcell.

First NHL shot...First NHL Goal!

And first shift!

Why wait for success when you can just ****in' take it?

 

[Alivesi]

So Kucherov's pretty good

Unsustainable.

Haha never say never!

Tampa announcers said has happened 7 times before. I wonder how many of those were on their first shift.

It's crazy how many players score on their very first shift and/or shot. The Sabres alone have many players in their franchise history who've done it, including Rob Ray

I love Kucherov's game. Is he expected to stay up for a while if he plays well?

I think they're going to give him a shot to stick, especially if Labrie is down for awhile.

He looks downright scary out there.
