TAMPA Mike Hoffman Jersey Womens , Fla. (AP) ¡ª It was another memorable night for Nikita Kucherov, Vinny Lecavalier and the Tampa Bay Lightning.Kucherov scored twice while breaking Tampa Bay¡¯s single-season record for points, leading the Lightning to a 3-2 victory against the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday.Ryan McDonagh also scored for NHL-leading Tampa Bay, which has won 14 consecutive regular-season games against Detroit. Louis Domingue stopped 22 shots in his 20th victory of the season.Thomas Vanek and Anthony Mantha scored for Detroit, which fell to 1-6-3 in the past 10 games. Jonathan Bernier finished with 30 saves.¡°We didn¡¯t rise to the occasion tonight, not even close,¡± Detroit coach Jeff Blashill said. ¡°Too many guys weren¡¯t skating.¡±Kucherov, one of the front-runners for the NHL MVP award, has 110 points through 69 games. Lecavalier held the previous franchise record, finishing with 108 points when he had 52 goals and 56 assists during the 2006-07 season.The record-setting point came on Kucherov¡¯s 32nd goal. He was alone at the top of the crease when he got a pass from Brayden Point and flipped the puck over Bernier at 11:56 of the first period.¡°It¡¯s special for me and my family, definitely,¡± Kucherov said. ¡°I don¡¯t think many people believed in me and I¡¯m just trying to keep proving them wrong. I¡¯m happy for myself and thanks to all the guys for helping me out. Without them I wouldn¡¯t have this much success.¡±Said Lecavalier in a statement: ¡°Kuch is an unbelievable player. He is so dominant and talented that it is no wonder he broke my Lightning record for most points in a season. I¡¯d like to personally congratulate Nikita for the accomplishment.¡±The Lightning became the first team this season to clinch a playoff berth after Montreal lost to Anaheim late Friday. It marked the second quickest in terms of games (68) needed to clinch a playoff spot since 2005-06.But Tampa Bay feels as if there is plenty to accomplish in the final few weeks of the season.¡°We¡¯ve talked about this a lot, to have consistency in our game,¡± coach Jon Cooper said. ¡°I thought tonight ¡­ we really didn¡¯t give them much. I really liked the way we played from start to finish.¡±McDonagh also scored in the first on a wrist shot from the center point, helping Tampa Bay build a 2-0 lead.The two-goal advantage held up until late in the second period when Vanek deflected a Niklas Kronwall pass past Domingue for a power-play goal with 3.1 seconds left.Kucherov also scored on a one-timer from the right circle 13:53 into the third for his 33rd multipoint game of the season. Mantha got one back for Detroit with 56 seconds left, but Tampa Bay held on.¡°It¡¯s really frustrating,¡± Mantha said of the losing streak to the Lightning. ¡°I mean it (stinks) that we can¡¯t win against these guys. I don¡¯t know what it is. I mean (Bernier) played an unbelievable game tonight. He probably saved four or five goals against and we couldn¡¯t build anything offensively.¡±NOTES: D Jan Rutta made his Lightning debut after he was called up on an emergency basis on Friday. ¡­ The Lightning were without D Dan Girardi (lower body), LW Adam Erne (upper body) and D Anton Stralman (lower body), who are all listed as day to day. ¡­ Detroit C Dylan Larkin missed his third consecutive game with a neck injury. ¡­ Domingue made his first start on home ice since Dec. 10. ¡­ Detroit¡¯s last regular-season victory against Tampa Bay came on Nov. 3, 2015. ¡­ Mantha has three goals and nine points in his past eight games. ¡­ Bernier fell to 0-4-3 in his past seven decisions.UP NEXTLightning: At Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday.Red Wings: At Florida Panthers on Sunday.

His sleight of hand with the puck allows him to make some amazing passes, and he should have an excellent chance to show off his skills.Tampa Bay Lightning teammate Steven Stamkos has powered home 26 goals and 31 assists, and he has one of the hardest shots in the NHL. David Pastrnak leads the Bruins with 27 goals and 29 assists, and he has an opportunity to create a number of highlight-reel plays with his speed and quick release.The Toronto Maple Leafs are represented by Auston Matthews and John Tavares, while Jack Eichel and Jeff Skinner are both representing the Buffalo Sabres.Andrei Vasilevskiy of the Lightning and the Detroit Red Wings' Jimmy Howard will share the goaltending assignment, while Thomas Chabot of the Ottawa Senators and Keith Yandle of the Florida Panthers will play defense for the Atlantic Division.The Tampa Bay stars may give this division a chance, but the Chabot-Yandle blue-line combination may not measure up to the those on the three other rosters.Metropolitan DivisionF Sebastian Aho, CAR (first)F Cam Atkinson, CBJ (second)F Mathew Barzal, NYI (first)F Sidney Crosby, PIT (fourth)F Claude Giroux, PHI (sixth)F Kyle Palmieri, NJD (first)D John Carlson, WSH (first)D Seth Jones, CBJ (second)D Kris Letang, PIT (fifth)G Braden Holtby, WSH (fourth)G Henrik Lundqvist, NYR (fifth)The Metropolitan All-Star team would include league-leading goal scorer Alex Ovechkin, but the 37-goal scorer pulled out. The Stanley Cup champion Washington Capitals have lost seven games in a row coming into the All-Star break Andrew Hammond Jersey Womens , and the team has looked fatigued in recent games. Captain Ovechkin may need the rest, and he will also have to sit out the Caps' first game after the break as a result of his choice.Washington goalie Braden Holtby and defenseman John Carlson are both participating. Holtby has a 17-12-3 record with a surprisingly high 3.11 goals-against average and a .905 save percentage. Carlson is one of the best offensive defensemen in the league, and he has eight goals and 39 assists.Longtime New York Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist will play in his fifth All-Star game. Lundqvist has a 15-12-7 record with a 3.01 GAA and a .908 save percentage.Sidney Crosby is likely to take on a key role, as he has long been considered the best player in the league. That title is under threat from Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers, but Crosby has scored 21 goals and 36 assists this term. Crosby will be joined by Pittsburgh Penguins teammate Kris Letang, who will play on the blue line.Mathew Barzal of the New York Islanders has 14 goals and 31 assists, and he has taken over as that team's big-play maker since Tavares left the team as a free agent for the Maple Leafs last summer.Cam Atkinson has scored 27 goals and 21 assists for the Columbus Blue Jackets, while defenseman Seth Jones gets his second opportunity to play in the All-Star Game. He has seven goals and 22 assists this season.The Metropolitan team may not have the firepower to compare with the other All-Star teams.

Rantanen is bull strong, and that allows him to hold on to the puck—even when he's being checked. He also has excellent passing skills and a fine shot. Rantanen has scored 23 goals and 51 assists.Linemate Nathan MacKinnon joins Rantanen, and he has scored 27 goals and 44 assists. Few players in the league can match MacKinnon when it comes to flat-out speed and skating around the defense.Patrick Kane of the Chicago Blackhawks is playing in his eighth All-Star Game. While the Blackhawks have struggled badly and are in last place in the Central, Kane has scored 29 goals and 42 assists this year.Blake Wheeler and Mark Scheifele of the Winnipeg Jets bring plenty of offense to the Central team. Wheeler, a solid three-zone player, has nine goals and 52 assists, while Scheifele has netted 25 goals and added 34 assists.Defenseman Roman Josi of the Nashville Predators has earned one of the key blue-line spots along with Miro Heiskanen of the Dallas Stars.Josi excels at handling the puck and going deep in the offensive zone to make a play. Josi has scored eight goals and 28 assists, while Heiskanen has nine goals and 11 assists, including three game-winning goals.Pekka Rinne of Nashville and Devan Dubnyk of the Minnesota Wild are the Central goaltenders. Rinne has an 18-12-3 mark and a 2.47 GAA along with a .915 save percentage. Dubnyk has a 20-16-3 record, a 2.57 GAA and a .913 save percentage.The Central team looks strong in all areas and should have an excellent chance of performing well in this format.Pacific DivisionF Johnny Gaudreau J.T.

McDavid is the fastest player in the league and is probably its best player.McDavid has scored 29 goals and 44 assists, and his 73 points mean he's tied for third in scoring with Gaudreau. The Flames winger'squickness, ability to handle the puck in tight spaces and shoot the puck accurately is without peer.McDavid's partner with the Oilers is Leon Draisaitl, and those two will team up in the All-Star Game. Draisaitl has 27 goals and 34 assists, and he excels at finding open teammates and setting them up with excellent scoring opportunities.With the San Jose Sharks hosting the game, hometown heroes Joe Pavelski, Brent Burns and Erik Karlsson should all play key roles. Burns is probably the most explosive offensive defenseman in the league, and he has nine goals and 46 assists this term. He has scored four game-winning goals, and five of his markers have come on the power play.Pavelski has scored 27 goals 18 assists, and he is connecting on 20.8 percent of his shots. Karlsson, the longtime Senator blueliner, has taken some time to get used to his new surroundings. However, he appears to have made progress, and he has three goals and 40 assists this campaign.Marc-Andre Fleury of the Vegas Golden Knights will share the goaltending duties with John Gibson of the Anaheim Ducks.Look for the Pacific Division team, with McDavid, Gaudreauand three Sharks, to triumph.
