Tampa Bay\'s Nikita Kucherov became the fifth player to have a 100-assist season as the Lightning beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 6-4 on Wednesday night.
Kucherov, the NHL\'s scoring leader with 144 points, scored a first-period goal, then set up Brayden Point\'s power-play tally with 2:55 left in the second for the historic assist.
\"It\'s a special moment,\" Kucherov said. \"Thanks to my teammates and coaching staff for putting me in position to have success. I\'m fortunate to play with great players.\"
