Jakob Chychrun has sat out of the Arizona Coyotes lineup for the last 3 weeks, but a deal has finally come together. The Ottawa Senators made the announcement this afternoon that they'd acquired Jakob Chychrun.
Trade alert! The #Sens have acquired defenceman Jakob Chychrun from @ArizonaCoyotes in exchange for a conditional first-round draft pick in '23, a conditional second-round selection in '24 (previously acquired from @Capitals) and a second-round pick in '26. 1/3
Conditions: The '23 1st-round pick is top-5 protected. If met, pick becomes '24 1st-round unprotected. Additionally, should #Sens reach '23 ECF, the 2nd-round pick becomes '24 1st-round top 10-protected. If that condition is met, the pick becomes '25 1st-round unprotected. 2/2
«A defenceman we've coveted, Jakob is big and plays imposing. He possesses a quality skill set; he defends hard and is highly skilled. He uses his heavy shot with accuracy and is effective at creating offence as a threat at the offensive blue line.» - #Sens GM Pierre Dorion. 3/3
This is major move for the Senators who take a huge step as they look to make a late season playoff push.
