Nikita Kucherov gets 100th point in Lightning shootout win

A goal in the 2-1 win over the Sabres makes him the first Lightning player with multiple 100-point seasons and the fastest to the mark in the NHL in more than 20 years.

Lightning right wing Nikita Kucherov (86) celebrates as he picks up his 100th point of the season with his goal beating Buffalo Sabres goaltender Carter Hutton (40) to tie the game at 1 to 1 during second period action.
