Evgeny Kuznetsov: Leaves with undisclosed issue

Kuznetsov exited Thursday's game with an undisclosed injury and will not return, Isabelle Khurshudyan of the Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

Kuznetsov will reportedly be re-evaluated Friday, at which time more information on his injury and a potential timetable will likely be provided. After a decent 2014 campaign, the youngster has exploded onto the scene this season, dishing out 39 assists thus far to rank third in the league in that category. It would certainly be a big blow for the Capitals as well as fantasy owners if Kuznetsov's injury turns out to be anything serious.
