Sidney Crosby, Nikita Kucherov and Top Highlights from March 5

Two of the best scorers in the National Hockey League stole the spotlight during a wild Tuesday night of action across North America.

Six of the 10 games played Tuesday night went to either overtime or a shootout, while three other contests were decided by two goals or less.

The Tampa Bay Lightning, who now sit at 106 points, had the largest margin of victory of Tuesday's slate, as they downed a playoff contender from the Western Conference.

In the Lightning's win over the Winnipeg Jets, Nikita Kucherov tied the single-season franchise points record.

In one of the overtime affairs, Sidney Crosby became the second Pittsburgh Penguins player to reach the 1,200-point mark in his career.
