How can you watch that interview and not love Nikita Kucherov? I full heartedly agree You love a coked out hockey player disrespecting his opponent, their fans and the last 2 vezina winners? He wants to be like OVY, hes a clown who should play soccer and not hockey the way he flops around.

I see both sides. On Rick's side, was it a little disrespectful? Sure. Was he in a euphoric state on winning his second Stanley Cup in 9 months assisted by a couple of nose beers? Most definitely. Was it excellent theater? Oh fuck ya.
The biggest gripe with the NHL today is their lack of personalities to grow the game. The game needs more Kucherov's and Sergachev's than McDavid's and Crosby's to show that not every NHLer is a robot.
I personally loved Kuch's press conference. Look at how many people are talking about it today. Not in a million years would this be the case had Montreal won the Cup.
As for the flopping around Rick, pretty sure that was Jake Evans in round two after getting rail-roaded my Scheifele.

- Scheifele should have got 1 game max
- Hab fans are psychopaths and have no place debating "class", police had to bring out the tear gas after game 4 what a shocker
- Habs as a team should be proud, they played an amazing 4 rounds but Tampa would have beat them even without Kucherov or Stamkos. The whining about the 18 million over cap is ridiculous too. No rules broken, blame the other 30 GM's who voted against changing the rule back in 2015 when Tampa wanted it changed themselves.

What does this have to do with Kucherov going on national tv after doing 2 rails off of maroons junk?

To quote Jeff Marek: "Embrace the Villain"
Hockey needs more of this. More personality, more hate, more guys on the podium absolutely buckled. Love it
