Evgeny Kuznetsov, AKA Bald Kuzy, was mic’d up for Game Four.
Kuznetsov is one of the biggest characters in the NHL and the video continues to bolster that case.

The video shows another view of Kuzy’s second-period goal that jumpstarted the Caps. It also shows just how much politicking he does on the ice with officials.
Some highlights:
- “Play right please.”
- On what seemed like a pedestrian trip to Tom Wilson, Kuzy yells “HEY!!! That’s FOUR!!” Now he’s shown at the bench. “Why wasn’t that two penalties?!”
- After Kuzy weaves around the entire Islanders defense for his goal, he lets out a loud “WOOOOOOO!” The sound is then immediately muted as Alex Ovechkin joins the goal hug due to cursing.
- “RONALDO!” Kuzy screams at Alex Ovechkin and Ilya Kovalchuk.
Bald Kuzy yelling “Ronaldo” at his teammates gives me life.

- A very apologetic Kuzy to an official: “My bad. Sorry, ok. I will be better.”
- “HE’S TIRED HE’S TIRED!”
- “Time… NO TIME! NO TIME!”
I told you. It’s great.
