Kuznetsov doesn't want to talk about what's working for him lately

Evgeny Kuznetsov is not about to tip his hand.
After a slow start to the season, the Washington Capitals center is finally starting to pile up the points. Heading into December, Kuznetsov had recorded three goals and six assists, but he's almost doubled that point total over the past 11 days.
Don't ask him what's behind the surge, though.
So, Evgeny Kuznetsov, what's working for you right now with eight assists in six games?

Kuznetsov also added the shootout winner in Friday's game against Carolina.
Despite the recent production, Kuznetsov is well off the pace that saw him record 77 points for the Capitals last season.
Whatever is working for him these days, the Capitals are certainly hoping he keeps it going.
