If you thought the All-Star break might slow down Evgeny Kuznetsov's hot streak, think again.

The 24-year-old Washington Capitals pivot opened the scoring against the New York Islanders with a scorcher against netminder Thomas Greiss, using his speed to find some uncontested space in the slot.

Kuznetsov's tally was his fifth in just six games, and his 10th of the season.
