Jakob Chychrun Out On Thursday
3 weeks agoWashington Capitals defenseman Jakob Chychrun (upper body) will sit out Thursday's game against Montreal. After getting injured on Tuesday versus the Rangers, Chychrun was on the ice Thursday morning but wore a non-contact jersey and isn't ready to play. The 28-year-old exits the lineup with four points (two goals, two assists) in eight games to his name. Alex Alexeyev will enter the lineup for his season debut on Thursday, with Martin Fehervary moving up to the first defensive pairing. Fehervary is an offensively limited player and likely won't make as big of an impact in the offensive zone as Chychrun does.
