The first round matchup between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Florida Panthers is underway, and despite a dominant start for the Panthers, the game is currently levelled thanks to a Brandon Hagel equalizer. The game is currently 1-1 going into the second period.
During the match, Nikita Kucherov got hit by fellow countryman Vladimir Tarasenko of the Florida Panthers, and despite their potential friendship, Kucherov did not appreciate the hit.Is the frustration on Tarasenko or the fact that the Tampa first line hasn't been given anything to work with.
No shots on goal for Brayden Point or Nikita Kucherov in the first period. Kucherov has two missed shots, but no shot attempts by Point. Very little space for the #GoBolts dynamic duo on the top line in the first period.
Welcome to the playoffs Kucherov, this isn't the regular season, regardless of your friendship status with members of the other team!
