Over the past week, Kucherov scored 10 points in four matches: he scored one goal and gave nine assists. He currently leads the NHL season scoring race with 136 points (43 goals, 93 assists) in 76 games.
It is worth noting that Kucherov previously became the first Russian and the first winger in NHL history to record 90 assists in a regular season.
The second best player of the week was Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, who had 6 points (5+1) in four games. The top three players were supplemented by another Russian – Artemy Panarin from the New York Rangers, who scored 8 points (2+6) over the past week.
