Lightning forward Nikita Kucherov leads the league with his team-high six goals logging an opening night hat trick against Carolina and a pair of goals in Thursday’s 4-1 home win over Vegas. Kucherov has scored 30 or more goals in seven of his last eight seasons and comes into this year after becoming just the fifth player in NHL history to tally a 100-assist season.
Tampa Bay has conceded the opening goal in two of their first three games but have outscored their opponents 7-1 in the the third period to keep their undefeated record intact.
Senators center Tim Stutzle leads the club with six points on the season but was held without a point in Thursday’s loss to New Jersey. The number three overall pick by the Senators in the 2020 NHL Draft, Stutzle tallied a career high 52 assists last season.
Ottawa has won two games in a row over Tampa Bay and five of the last six dating back to March of 2023 and five of the last six at home.
