The Washington Capitals and Vancouver Canucks played a wild game on Friday night that saw the Capitals jump out to a 2-0 lead, give up three goals in five minutes to open the third period, tie the game late in the third period, and then win on a Lars Eller overtime goal. Kuznetsov had a hat trick in all of that, including the game-tying goal in the third period. HIs second goal of the game looked like it could have been number 767 for Alex Ovechkin, but Kuznetsov was able to get a piece of it for the goal. This has been a big bounce back season for Kuznetsov who is now averaging more than a point per game with 57 total points (19 goals, 38 assists) in 56 games.
