He heads into Thursday's game on a line with regular Steven Stamkos. Former linemate Ondrej Palat joins them in an attempt to spark some chemistry. Saturday, Kucherov and Stamkos got a bit too cutesy on the ice, each preferring to pass the puck to the other rather than fire it. One too many passes meant lost opportunities. Watch for Kucherov to explode out of the gate Thursday and fire at will. He was the second-best fantasy player in the league last season behind only Connor McDavid and will be ready to keep that mantle, despite strong starts by Toronto's Auston Matthews and John Tavares.
