A reporter talked about the global dissatisfaction within the hockey community and the NHL regarding Kucherov's behavior in the Skills competition.
"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
