In fact, he had defensemen and both between him and the net. The Lightning winger veered to the middle of the ice and pulled back his stick as if he was going to make another move to try to split the defenders.Instead of trying to pull the puck back between the Rangers rearguards, Kucherov unleashed a surprise shot that caught a deflection and found its way inside the left post. Lundqvist may have never really gotten a good look at it after it changed direction on him.The goal was Kucherov's second OT winner in the postseason as he also delivered the winner in Game 1 against the Montreal Canadiens in the last round.
