The Capitals lead the Blue Jackets by one point, 35-34.
The forward can tie Ryan Johansen's Blue Jackets record. Johansen's streak was from Dec. 18, 2014 to Jan. 17, 2015.
Atkinson has 20 points (13 goals, seven assists) during his streak, which began Nov. 10, one day after he missed the Blue Jackets' 2-1 win at Washington because of illness.
Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin has nine goals and five assists during a 10-game point streak. It's his first point streak of at least 10 games since Jan. 27-Feb. 18, 2009.
Ovechkin needs one power-play goal to pass to Mario Lemieux and tie Brendan Shanahan (237) for sixth place on the NHL all-time list.
