Jakob Chychrun Lifts Yotes Past Canadiens
5 years agoArizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun deposited a game-winning goal as his team rallied for a 3-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Monday. The 21-year-old lit the lamp on a blast from the point with just one minute remaining in the final frame, securing a full two points for a Yotes team in the midst of an intense fight for a playoff spot. With the marker, Chychrun extended his personal point streak to four games (two goals, two assists) and also moved into a tie for eighth place among all NHL defensemen with 12 goals. Supporting his impressive goal total with cross-category production (11 assists, 135 shots, 65 hits), the Florida native could serve as a valuable depth addition to any fantasy owner looking to fill a hole on the back end. Chychrun will be back in action versus the Leafs on Tuesday.
