The NHL world has reacted to Evgeny Kuznetsov scoring 26 seconds into OT against the Columbus Blue Jackets, which gave the Washington Capitals their 27th win of the season.The Capitals are fourth in the Metropolitan Division. Their goals against the Blue Jackets came from Trevor van Riemsdyk, who scored twice, Garnet Hathaway in regulation time, and Kuznetsov, who bagged an OT winner. Kuznetsov also assisted Van Riemsdyk's second goal.Captain Alexander Ovechkin had a quiet night, managing only one shot on goal, which was saved by goalie Korpisalo. On a night where their most lethal scorer was unable to be of much offensive help, his teammates stepped up big time.Here are the reactions from the NHL universe on Kuznetsov's dramatic OT winner:NHL@NHLEvgeny Kuznetsov (@Kuzya92) only needed 26 seconds to bury the @Energizer overtime winner and secure the extra point for the @Capitals! 🦅9419Evgeny Kuznetsov (@Kuzya92) only needed 26 seconds to bury the @Energizer overtime winner and secure the extra point for the @Capitals! 🦅 https://t.co/uK6lwABRArCapitalsPR@CapitalsPREvgeny Kuznetsov scores his eighth career overtime goal to give the Capitals a 4-3 win.

He said :"Yeah, it was unexpected. No, it was a nice faceoff, and I gotta say that and especially having Gus on ice, we know that we are not going to throw the puck away, and we are going to wait and if nothing opens up, we are going to change, but eventually we held on to the puck, and I decided to shoot the puck."Kuznetsov also said that it was an important win for the Capitals, as they had suffered a 5-1 thrashing from the Toronto Maple Leafs in the last game. He added that the win against the Blue Jackets will be a big mental boost for the team going into the All-Star break.It was Kuznetsov's eighth overtime goal. Since his rookie season in 2013-14, his tally of overtime goals rank second for Washington, behind only Alex Ovechkin's 13.
