Jakob Chychrun News: Nets pair of goals

Chychrun scored two goals, placed three shots on net, recorded two blocks and dished out two hits in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Florida.

Chychrun tallied two consecutive goals early in the second period to give the Capitals a 2-1 lead. His 17 goals rank second among all NHL defensemen. The 27-year-old blueliner has 35 points, 156 shots on net, 41 hits and 61 blocks through 47 games this season. He's on pace to exceed his previous highs of 47 points and 204 shots on goal in a regular season. Chychrun continues to take steps forward in his second full season with the Capitals and has become one of the most productive fantasy options on the blue line across the league.
