TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Tampa Bay Lightning star Nikita Kucherov returned to the lineup against Calgary after missing 32 games with a lower-body injury that required surgery. Kucherov got hurt chasing a puck during the third period Oct. 16 at Washington. The high-scoring forward appeared to be injured in the groin-abdominal area. Tampa Bay captain Steven Stamkos did not participate in the morning skate due to an undisclosed issue but played against the Flames.
