It's the vision/awareness that's astounding. It's like there are times where you, the viewer, can see a potential play but you know the player doesnt see it. Kucherov sees everything.
That statement makes me want an avatar of Kucherov with a third eye superimposed on one of those Tool album psychedelic pieces.

His vision is unreal. It’s like he sees the game like Bally’s Birds Eye cam.

Yeah this is good way to put it, also feels like you know exactly which play he's going to make too in your head because we've been so accustomed to him over the years, who else saw that pass to Colton against Florida coming from a mile away.

The way he executes his passes is exceptionally unique, hard to describe it unless you play hockey (at a high level if you will).

I've found a song that works for Kucherov's HHOF tribute video (you really want to avoid having lyrics imo) because you can slow down and speed up highlights of Kucherov's wizardry with the pace of the song but you sorta gotta hope it's long enough.




Any of you guys here smart enough to throw a highlight package together?

The vision and creativity are surreal... but then to have the touch with the puck to actually execute those passes is sheer artistry.

Kuch jumps back into 3rd in scoring in the NHL after last night. 1 point ahead of Pasta and Robertson, 3 points behind Drai, 18 behind McJesus. Tied 1st in assists with McJesus too.

With games at hand and shooting a pretty low % for him.

I feel like it's a race between him and Draisaitl for second. It will be surprising if anyone else keeps up down the stretch.
