Florida GM Dale Tallon has liked what he's seen from Dmitry Kulikov after the young defenseman had a difficult start to the 2013-14 campaign. "He's been solid all the way around," Tallon said. "He's buying in, so I'm happy for him." Kulikov, who will become a restricted free agent this summer, has six goals, 12 points and a minus-11 rating in 57 games this season.
