After the win against the Montreal Canadiens, Kucherov became the most hated player among Quebec fans because of his "troll" attitude, which included showing up in chest with cans of Bud Light in his hands during an interview. At that moment, the Bolts were celebrating their second successive Stanley Cup, as Nikita Kucherov had predicted beforehand.
Yes, yes! Like a wizard, after signing his eight-year contract in 2018, Kucherov said that his team would win two consecutive Stanley Cup. After a horrible four-game losing streak in 2019, the Lightning came back even stronger by winning the Stanley Cup in 2020 and 2021, which is still quite a feat! Even more so with this prediction from the 28-year-old Russian player.
