During the game, there were multiple instances where Kucherov was absent from the ice and the bench due to an injury. Stamkos replaced him in the lineup and was seen skating with Point and Hagel. However, Kucherov later returned to the game after initially limping off the ice, indicating a temporary absence due to injury.
Kucherov is back in the game. #GoBolts
Kucherov has returned

No Kucherov, so he's not out there on the 4-on-3. Hagel is out there with Sergachev, Stamkos and Point.
With Kucherov out, Stamkos is skating with Point and Hagel. #gobolts
Stamkos again out with Point/Hagel
Don't see Kucherov on the #Bolts bench right now.
Steven Stamkos out for a shift with Point/Hagel and the bench looks short, so I'm assuming Kucherov is the absent player

Puck drops to start the third period, with the Malkin line out there just like they were for the opening faceoff.
