Saturday night's stacked slate of NHL games features a mouth watering showdown between the Lightning and the Carolina Hurricanes, but now, the team have announced that forward Nikita Kucherov will miss the game due to illness.

In just 14 games this year, Kucherov has been perhaps at his career best, notching 11 goals and 23 points thus far, so they will be hoping it's just a one game absence, but even then, he'll be sorely missed.
