Many people were frustrated to see him act this way, including people from the NHL.
NHL Representatives Frustrated at Kucherov After Skills Competition
In a statement, a reporter from TVA Sports mentionned that Kucherov's actions weren't appreciated by some people in the league.
"I saw league representatives [after Kucherov's actions], and they were not very, very happy. It was a lack of respect and a lack of class towards hockey. I feel like he loved it even more; the crowd was booing him, and he took even more time." - Via TVA Sports
What Kucherov did was a total lack of class and he should have gave his best in the challenges. If not for him, or for the game, do it for the fans who paid a hefty price to see him walk around the ice and do nothing.
Some people are calling him out on social medias, saying he should be suspended for what he did.
Do you think Kucherov should be suspended?
