Pick and roll.
Nikita Kucherov secured a critical bonus point for the Tampa Bay Lightning on Friday versus Detroit, creating space in the attacking zone with some subtle interference before darting to the near post to tap in an overtime winner off a feed from Brayden Point.
His winner on the heels of a hat-trick performance over Boston, the sudden MVP candidate has dragged the Lightning back to within a point of postseason position.
