Kuznetsov notched two assists and three shots in the Capitals' 4-0 win over the Coyotes on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Kuznetsov picked up a helper on Tom Wilson's power-play goal that extended the Capitals' lead to 3-0. He also picked up the primary assist on Dylan Strome's second goal of the game, finding the former Blackhawk wide open to pot an easy goal. This performance gives Kuznetsov three points in his last three games after struggling out of the gate in the month of January. The Russian forward has six goals and 39 points in the 2022-23 campaign.

EDGE Analysis

Kuznetsov helped out on T.J. Oshie's equalizer in the third period. The assist snapped Kuznetsov's four-game point drought, but he's gone eight contests without a goal, picking up seven helpers in that span. The center is up to 37 points, 107 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 45 outings. He's shooting a paltry 5.6 percent, so there's reason to be hopeful he'll turn it around in the second half of the campaign.

Kuznetsov picked up two assists in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Both of Kuznetsov's helpers came on third-period power plays, setting up T.J. Oshie and Alex Ovechkin. The two-assist game extended Kuznetsov's point streak to seven games, with two goals and nine assists in that span. The 30-year-old center has excelled as a playmaker on Washington's top unit, tallying six goals and 30 assists through 40 games this season.

EDGE Analysis

It was great pass after great pass for the elite playmaker who is on a five-game, eight-point streak that includes six assists. Kuznetsov has 17 points, including 14 helpers, in 15 games in December. He's been held off the score sheet just three times this month.

EDGE Analysis

Kuznetsov is on a four-game point streak (two goals, three assists) and has managed a point-per-game across 14 contests in the month of December. The Capitals could be in line to shuffle their lineups once Nicklas Backstrom (hip), Tom Wilson (knee), and T.J. Oshie (upper body) return, but those reinforcements should only help the 30-year-old playmaker pay further dividends for fantasy managers.

Kuznetsov had a goal and an assist in a 3-2 overtime win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

The goal wasn't pretty, but they all count. Kuznetsov's centering pass deflected in off Ottawa defender Jake Sanderson's stick on the power play in the first period. It was just his fifth of the season. His shooting percentage is just 4.7 percent this season, well below his career mark of 11.3, so we expect Kuznetsov to start putting more pucks in the net soon. He has 27 points (five goals, 22 assists) in 34 games.

Kuznetsov registered an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

The Blackhawks turned the puck over in their own zone, and Kuznetsov took a poor shot on a pass from Anthony Mantha. The puck went back to Mantha, who then set up Alex Ovechkin's 800th career goal, earning Kuznetsov the secondary helper. The assist also extended Kuznetsov's point streak to six games (one goal, six helpers). The center is up to 23 points, (four tallies, 19 helpers), 73 shots on net, 22 PIM and a minus-2 rating in 30 appearances. He's seeing second-line usage lately, as Dylan Strome has found some success in Kuznetsov's usual top-line spot.

EDGE Analysis

Kuznetsov entered Sunday with five assists in his last four outings, but he'd gone seven games without a goal. His tally put the Capitals up 2-0 at 8:21 of the second period. A four-time 20-goal scorer, Kuznetsov is off to a slow start with just four tallies to go with a solid 18 assists through 29 appearances this season. The center has added 72 shots on net, 20 PIM, a minus-3 rating and nine power-play points, but he's been surpassed by Dylan Strome for top-line usage.

Oshie tie it at a goal apiece in the second period with the extra man before adding a helper on Washington's final goal, scored into an empty net with nine seconds left in the third by Alex Ovechkin.

EDGE Analysis

Kuznetsov set up Sonny Milano for the game-tying marker late in the third period as the Capitals snapped a four-game skid. While goals have been hard to come by this season (two in 20 games), the 30-year-old has four helpers in his last seven games and could see further improvement with the return of T.J. Oshie to the lineup.
