Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Two points in Game 4 loss
Chychrun scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist Monday in the Capitals' 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 4 of their second-round series.

It was the first time in the series that Chychrun had gotten onto the scoresheet, and through nine playoff contests, the 27-year-old blueliner has three goals and five points, with Monday's helper being his first point on the power play.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Out of lineup Tuesday
Chychrun is not in the lineup versus the Islanders on Tuesday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
No reason was provided for Chychrun's absence, but it's safe to assume this is a rest situation for the 27-year-old defenseman, as he played 20:46 in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.

It's unclear if Chychrun will be an option for Thursday's regular-season finale versus the Penguins.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Ends goal drought with two tallies
Chychrun tallied two goals, fired four shots on net and had two hits in Sunday's 8-5 loss to the Sabres.
Chychrun tallied the first two goals of the game for the Capitals. He scored the first goal of the game 10:06 into the first period before tallying his second just 32 seconds after the Sabres took a 2-1 lead. Overall, the 27-year-old blueliner has 20 goals, 46 points and 171 shots on net in 68 games this season. Chychrun's goals ended a nine-game drought without lighting the lamp. However, he remained active on offense during this stretch with four assists and 31 shots on net. His first season with the Capitals has been the best offensive campaign of his career and he is currently tied with teammate John Carlson for 15th-most points from a defenseman in the league this season. Chychrun should maintain strong value in all fantasy formats for the remainder of the season.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Expected to play Tuesday
Chychrun (hand/wrist) is slated to play Tuesday versus Winnipeg, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.
Chychrun's availability was in question after he suffered a laceration to his hand/wrist area during Saturday's 6-3 victory over the Panthers. He has 18 goals, 43 points, 46 PIM, 47 hits and 79 blocks in 65 outings in 2024-25. This will be his first game since inking an eight-year, $72 million contract extension.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Locked up for eight years
Chychrun (hand/wrist) inked an eight-year, $72 million contract extension with the Capitals on Tuesday.
Chychrun's new deal will begin with the 2025-26 campaign and run through 2032-33. He has 18 goals, 43 points, 46 PIM, 47 hits and 79 blocks in 65 appearances with Washington this campaign. This is the 26-year-old's second straight campaign with at least 40 points and the third time he's hit that milestone in his career. Chychrun is getting a big raise compared to his current $4.6 million cap hit, but he should serve in a top-four capacity for the Capitals throughout the life of his new contract. In the short term, Chychrun is questionable for Tuesday's game against Winnipeg after sustaining a laceration to his hand/wrist area during Saturday's 6-3 win over Florida.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Dealing with laceration
Chychrun was cut by a skate in his hand/wrist area during Saturday's game against Florida and is considered questionable for Tuesday's game in Winnipeg, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.
Although head coach Spencer Carbery said that Chychrun got lucky overall during Saturday's incident, he also described the 26-year-old's laceration as a "significant" cut. It's encouraging that Chychrun will travel with the team ahead of Tuesday's matchup, but it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to play. If he doesn't get the green light, Alexander Alexeyev and Dylan McIlrath are candidates to take his place in the lineup.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Sets career high in points
Chychrun registered an assist and six shots on goal in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Ducks.
Chychrun got on the scoresheet for the third game in a row (one goal, two assists). The defenseman helped out on a Pierre-Luc Dubois tally in the second period. Chychrun has run a little streaky over the last month or so, but he's still a quality blueliner in fantasy. He's up to 42 points in 60 appearances, good for a new career-best scoring total. He's added 145 shots on net, 74 blocked shots and a plus-24 rating while filling a top-four role for the Capitals.

Capitals' Jakob Chychrun: Nets goal in Friday's win
Chychrun scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.
Chychrun came out of the 4 Nations Face-Off break with four points over two games, but his offense took a nosedive with a five-game drought after that. He put the slump to rest with a goal Friday, which ended up being the game-winner for the Capitals in their comeback effort. With the tally, he's matched his career high in goals at 18 and reached the 40-point mark for the third time, including two straight seasons. The defenseman has added 136 shots on net, 74 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a plus-22 rating in 58 appearances in 2024-25.
