Kucherov (illness) will be a game-time decision versus the Canadiens on Tuesday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.

Scouting Report

A great shooter and passer, he is an explosive skater with great one-on-one moves. The only thing that has been able to slow him down is injuries. He is perhaps the NHL’s best at running the power play from along the half-wall. Makes everyone who plays with him a threat to score. His skill has enabled him to overcome his lack of ideal size, but it has led to significant time lost to injury. Plays a unique style with refreshing confidence.

Long Range Potential: One of the best players in the game (when healthy).
