Kucherov missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but will play Thursday in Colorado. Kucherov will return on the first line and top power-play unit and comes in with five goals and 12 assists (17 points) in 11 games this season.
Kucherov returned to the ice on Tuesday morning but will remain out of the lineup vs. the Sharks. According to head coach Jon Cooper, the Lightning will stick with the same lineup as Saturday's shootout loss to the Golden Knights.
Kucherov will likely miss two games after landing in COVID-19 protocol on Tuesday. Expect to see Kucherov back in the lineup next Tuesday vs. the Sharks.
Kucherov has been out since October 16th but is expected to play Thursday vs. the Flames. Kucherov had a strong start to the season, scoring one goal with three assists in his first three games. He'll be back on the top line with Brayden Point and top power-play unit.
Kucherov underwent an unspecified procedure on Wednesday and will miss at least two months.

With Kucherov not available for Monday's practice, Ondrej Palat moved to PP1 and Corey Perry moved up to the top line.
The Lightning are hopeful that Kucherov will be available for the playoffs. Kucherov going on LTIR provides the Lightning with $9.5 million in cap space, which is a positive to come out of this. Tampa Bay is pressed up tight against the cap but losing their best player should allow them to get RFA Anthony Cirelli under contract before the start of the season.
Kucherov got tangled up with Jack Johnson late in the second period and limped to the bench and down the tunnel. Kucherov did not return for the third period and head coach Jon Cooper did not have an update post-game. Consider Kucherov day-to-day with a lower-body injury until they release more information.
