Can anyone stop Nikita Kucherov? Can anyone else keep pace with him to put up a good fight in the race for the Hart trophy?
After last night’s 5 point performance vs the Blue Jackets — that’s 5 primary points by the way — he now has 99 points in 60 games. He is 9 points ahead of the next closest player, Patrick Kane with 90 points. He is 16 points ahead of the third place player, which is McDavid with 83 points.
Is it possible that Kucherov can reach 120+, or even 130+ points, and not get the Hart?
