As the Arizona Coyotes fight for a playoff spot they re fourth in the West Division, with a one-point lead over the St. Louis Blues defenseman Jakob Chychrun has emerged as one of the team s most important players. The 23-year-old leads Arizona in average ice time (23:09), surpassing captain Oliver Ekman-Larsson as the team s No. 1 defenseman. Chychrun is tied for second on the team in goals (13, including three game winners) and is third in points (31).
The Coyotes always knew Chychrun was capable of this, but watching him flourish has been a treat, especially after a series of injuries hampered the start of his career. Chychrun had shoulder surgery in his draft year, which I kind of struggled to come back from, he said. Then, while training in the summer in 2017 following his first NHL season, he tore the meniscus in his left knee.
