Kucherov may miss Game 7
TAMPA, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Lightning will play Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Semifinals Friday at 8 p.m. at the Amalie Arena against the New York Islanders.
Lightning Coach Jon Cooper has not verified whether star right-winger Nikita Kucherov will be in Friday's lineup after getting injured in Game 6 of the semifinals against the New York Islanders.
During the game Wednesday at the Nassau Coliseum, Kucherov took a cross-check from the Islanders' Scott Mayfield that caused him to double over in pain and promptly exit the ice and head to the Lightning locker room.
Only moments before, the 27-year-old Russian-born player checked Islanders' defenseman Matthew Barzal.
