Evgeny Kuznetsov Extends Career-High Point Streak To 12 Games
3 years agoWashington Capitals center Evgeny Kuznetsov took his career-high point streak to 12 games on Saturday, recording an assist in a 4-3 victory over New Jersey. He tallied the helper on the game-winning goal, which was scored by Alex Ovechkin on the power play 11:48 into the third period. Kuznetsov has logged 15 points in total during his streak and it's pushed him to 65 points for the season. Ovechkin and Kuznetsov have formed a very fruitful partnership and Marcus Johansson should start to reap the benefits of it as well soon. He's been skating with the Russian duo since returning to Washington on trade deadline day but hasn't yet done any scoring in three games.
