Nikita Kucherov knows how to start a show.

The Tampa Bay Lightning winger opened the scoring in Game 4 against the Detroit Red Wings with a power-play goal, marking the third time he's recorded the first marker of the night over the course of the series.

Judging by his reaction, he's becoming quite used to it.

The goal was Kucherov's fourth of the postseason, and was assisted by Tyler Johnson and Jonathan Drouin.
