Chychrun notched an assist, four blocked shots and two shots on net in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun's season-opening point streak is now at four games. He got his assist Wednesday when Phil Kessel deflected his shot past Marc-Andre Fleury. Through four games, Chychrun has compiled a goal, four helpers, 12 shots on goal, eight hits and five blocks. He's doing it all in a top-pairing role for the Coyotes, and fantasy managers should be taking notice while the streak rolls on.

Chychrun posted a power-play assist and four hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun has gotten on the scoresheet in all three of the Coyotes' games this year, racking up a goal and three helpers so far. Two of his points have come on the power play, and he may be in line for more minutes with the extra man while Oliver Ekman-Larsson (lower body) is sidelined for at least four weeks. Chychrun will also absorb some extra time at even strength -- that bodes well for his fantasy outlook in his first real chance to be a top-pairing defenseman.

Chychrun potted a goal on three shots and doled out three hits in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun was a strong contributor again Saturday, with his tally at 8:56 of the second period counting as the game-winner. The 22-year-old defenseman is up to three points, eight shots and three hits through the first two games of the year. If he can maintain consistency on offense, he'll be worth a look in deeper fantasy formats given his usage on the second power-play unit.

Chychrun notched two assists and five shots on goal in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun had a hand in goals by Conor Garland and Clayton Keller, the former coming on the power play. The 22-year-old Chychrun surged offensively in his last 10 games last year, producing seven points before his regular season ended with an injury. He looks poised to maintain that momentum in 2020-21 after his multi-point season debut. Chychrun had a career-best 26 points to go with 75 hits and 95 blocked shots last year, so he can be counted on in deeper formats as a well-rounded depth option.

Chychrun scored a power-play goal Monday during the Coyotes' 7-1 loss to the Avalanche in Game 4 of their first-round series.
EDGE Analysis
His first career playoff point was an impressive effort, as Chychrun picked the top corner past Philipp Grubauer from the top of the circle, but it came after Arizona was already in a 4-0 hole in the second period. Chychrun had a bit of a breakout regular season before the shutdown, but the 22-year-old may need to do a lot more if the Coyotes are going to avoid elimination in Game 5 on Wednesday.

Chychrun (hip) was a full participant in Monday's practice session, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun was a game-time decision for the Yotes final game of the regular season but was ultimately unable to suit up in the contest with Vancouver on March 11. In addition to jumping back into a top-four role on the blue line, the Florida native figures to retake his spot with one of the two power-play units, which should make him a top-end fantasy option during the playoffs.

Chychrun (hip) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's clash with the Canucks, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Rick Tocchet told reporters that Chychrun had a "good" practice Wednesday, so the 21-year-old blueliner is likely closer to probable than questionable for Thursday's contest. Nonetheless, his status against Vancouver may not be confirmed until Arizona takes the ice for pregame warmups, so fantasy owners should plan accordingly.

Chychrun (hip) will miss Monday's meeting with Winnipeg, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun was sidelined for the Yotes the last six contests due to his hip problem. While coach Rick Tocchet indicated the defenseman is nearing a return to the lineup, he didn't provide a specific recovery timeline. Once given the green light, Chychrun figures to get back to logging over 22 minutes per night on the top pairing.

Chychrun (hip) joined the team in Winnipeg on Sunday ahead of Monday's game.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun was originally not expected to join the team on its three-game road trip, but as evidenced by this news, the youngster seems ahead of schedule. The 21-year-old could certainly enter the lineup Monday, however, there's no guarantees he'll do so. Chychrun has racked up 26 points in 63 appearances, and he'll likely knock Jason Demers or Ilya Lyubushkin out of the lineup once he returns.

Chyrchrun (hip) won't travel on the team's upcoming three-game road trip, Richard Morin of The Arizona Republic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chychrun will miss the next three games, at least, and his next chance to play will be March 12 against the Canucks. The Coyotes still don't have a plan for when the blueliner will get back on the ice. The 21-year-old has already produced career highs in goals (12) and points (26). He'll need to be activated from IR before returning to the lineup.
