If you own Kulikov, remember to put him back in your lineup. The Russian defender scored a goal and 15 points over 20 games.
No word on the extent of Kulikov's injury. Stay tuned for a further update.
Kulikov now has 12 assists through his first 15 games. Playing with Brian Campbell on the power play has been an excellent way for him to regain offensive confidence.
