Tampa Bay visits Minnesota after Mikheyev's 2-goal game

The Tampa Bay Lightning visit the Minnesota Wild after Ilya Mikheyev scored two goals in the Lightning's 4-1 win against the Chicago Blackhawks

3 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Two-goal outburst against old team Mikheyev scored twice in Thursday's 4-1 win over Chicago.

Impact It was a revenge game for Mikheyev, who played the last two season in the Windy City before signing with Tampa Bay on July 1. His first goal made it 2-0 late in the first period; it stood as the winner. His second made it 4-0 early in the third. Mikheyev snapped a seven-game goal drought, and the snipes Thursday were just his second and third points in his last 12 games. He's on the third line, but with no power-play time, Mikheyev's fantasy value is limited. He has just 19 shots in his last 12 games, and 22 in 15 overall.

Steals puck and scores sweet goal Mikheyev scored a goal Thursday in a 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken.

Impact Mikheyev looked like he was playing Grand Theft Auto with the Kraken defense. He took the puck off Ville Ottavainen' stick in front of the net and then poked it past Philipp Grubauer. Mikheyev has settled onto the third line, which disappoints many managers who draft him on the speculation that he'd be Nikita Kucherov's wing man. He has two goals, two assists and eight shots in seven games.

Two-point effort Monday Mikheyev scored a goal and added an assist in Monday's 4-1 win over the Flyers.

Impact The veteran winger helped set up a Pontus Holmberg tally in the second period that proved to be the game-winner, then found the back of the net himself late in the third on a nifty wraparound. Mikheyev is skating on the third line and isn't getting power-play time to begin his Tampa Bay tenure, but he's still been productive with a goal and three points in his first three games.

Sets career high in points Mikheyev netted two goals and put three shots on net in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blues.

Impact Mikheyev generated the majority of Chicago's offense Saturday with a goal in the second and third periods. With the pair of twine finders, the 31-year-old winger is up to 18 goals, 35 points, 120 shots on net, 31 hits and 22 blocked shots across 75 games this season. Mikheyev's multi-goal night Saturday raised him above his previous career high of 34 points across 80 games a season ago. He's heating up with seven points over his last seven games, which could allow him to build a cushion for his career high in points by the end of the regular season.

Goal, assist in win Mikheyev scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

Impact Mikheyev set up Tyler Bertuzzi's goal late in the second period and added the empty-netter in the third. The 31-year-old Mikheyev has netted four goals and added three assists over his last 10 appearances while playing in a second-line role. He's up to 16 goals, 33 points, 116 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 72 appearances. He's one point shy of matching the career-best 34 he had over 80 outings in 2024-25.
