Kuznetsov collected two assists in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders.
His second helper was his 40th of the season, and it set up Alex Ovechkin for his 767th career NHL goal, moving Ovie into third place on the all-time list ahead of Jaromir Jagr. While Kuznetsov often gets overshadowed by his future Hall of Fame linemate, the 29-year-old is having an excellent season of his own -- he's got an active six-game point streak going, and 59 points through 58 contests overall.
