Nikita Kucherov

 

Considering the limited ice time he receives each game, this kid is an obvious star in the making.  The former second round draft pick in 2011 has seemed to find a home on the second line with Tyler Johnson and the results speak for themselves, for both players. The kid has a shot that most can only wish for, and combine that with his speed and hockey IQ, Tampa fans are going to be enjoying this young stud for years. He leads Tampa Bay's Corsi Relative which basically means when he is on the ice, Tampa Bay controls the puck the most. Considering Alex Killorn, Steven Stamkos, Ryan Callahan and Jonathan Drouin are all ahead of Kucherov when it comes to offensive start %, that's pretty impressive. He also hasn't gone more than a game without a point in his last 25 games. The second year player is only going to get better, and better.

It's almost scary to think how deep the Lightning are.
