His increase in playmaking has been a welcome sight for a player who has predictably seen his shooting percentage dip from 27.3 percent last season to 15 percent so far in 2023-24.

Nets power-play goal Kuzmenko scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.

Impact Kuzmenko's first-period tally tied the game at 1-1. The winger has a pair of power-play points, four shots on goal and a plus-2 rating through the first two games of the season. He remains in a top-line role, and he's off to a good start as he looks to defy the widely expected regression after shooting 27.3 percent last year.

Gathers assist in win Kuzmenko logged a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Wednesday's 8-1 win over the Oilers.

Impact Kuzmenko helped out on the third of Brock Boeser's four goals in this game. While he was listed on the top line, Kuzmenko saw a middling 16:23 of ice time Wednesday. The 27-year-old winger impressed in his first NHL campaign with 39 goals and 74 points, but he shot 27.3 percent last year and will likely need to offset a drop in shooting percentage with an improvement in the playmaking department. As long as he's playing alongside an elite talent in Elias Pettersson, Kuzmenko should still have a high floor.

Supplies pair of helpers Kuzmenko notched two assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Coyotes.

Impact This was Kuzmenko's first multi-point effort since March 28. The 27-year-old didn't look out of place in his first NHL campaign, posting 39 goals, 35 assists, 143 shots on net and a plus-9 rating through 81 contests. He'll have a tough time replicating his 27.3 shooting percentage in 2023-24 -- while his goal-scoring could be above-average, it's safe to assume some regression for Kuzmenko.

Impact Kuzmenko has started to falter a bit late in the season -- he's gone seven games without a multi-point effort.

Kuzmenko's still had an excellent first NHL campaign with 39 tallies, 72 points (18 on the power play), 142 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 80 appearances.
