Kucherov Grabs Another Hart as McDavid, MacKinnon Chased Him

The Hart conversation had all the usual heavyweights in it, but the final tally made this one a little more interesting than your standard MVP coronation. Tampa Bay gets another reminder that even in a league full of supernovas, Kucherov still knows how to own the room. This one also adds another layer to a résumé that keeps getting harder to argue with.
