Yeah, that's just incorrect. Kuznetsov is still a top six center and has gotten better defensively. The 2021 season was the best season he had in goals above replacement over the past three years. He went from -5.4 dGAR last season to 0.1 dGAR this season. That's a remarkable improvement, considering his dGAR was -8.2 in 2018-19.

He scored 29 points in 41 games with his post-COVID struggles, which is nothing to blink at. The Caps do want more out of Kuznetsov, but if they're tired of anything, it's the off-ice stuff, not the on-ice play.
