Tampa Bay Lightning forward Nikita Kucherov was named the winner of the Ted Lindsay Award for the second time in his career on Wednesday.

The award is presented annually to the most outstanding player in the NHL as voted by fellow members of the NHL Players’ Association.

Kucherov, who also won it in 2018-19, was a finalist last season along with Colorado Avalanche teammates Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar. MacKinnon won the award last season.

Kucherov, 31, won his second straight Art Ross Trophy after leading the NHL in scoring with 121 points (37 goals, 84 assists). He also led the league in power-play points with 46 (eight goals, 38 assists).
