Chychrun (undisclosed) will play in Tuesday's game versus the Senators, Dave Vest of the Coyotes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Rick Tocchet said Chychrun's injury was minor, but the oft-injured blueliner was able to shake this one off. He rides a five-game pointless streak with a minus-6 rating into this contest, although he's fired 16 shots on goal in that span. Chychrun will remain on the second pairing with Alex Goligoski.

Chychrun (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against Ottawa, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun was held out of practice Monday due to "maintenance" and looks to be close to a return to the ice. There is nothing to suggest that the 20-year-old's role will change if he's able to suit up Tuesday. If he's not able to play, however, Kevin Connauton could receive more ice time than usual.

Chychrun (undisclosed) did not practice Monday due to "maintenance", Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Coyotes' defenseman, according to head coach Rick Tocchet, was "a little sore" which prompted the team to hold him out of Monday's practice. Coach Tocchet was quoted as saying Chychrun has a "good chance" to play Tuesday in Ottawa.

Chychrun acknowledges that he'll have to play through tendinitis in his surgically repaired right knee for the remained of the season, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun went under the knife in the offseason to repair his ACL. He returned to action Nov. 13 and has played in 29 games since then, but the defenseman still experiences pain that doctors describe as normal. "My knee can get a little sore still sometimes, which can be a little frustrating," he said. "Last year, I didn't really have that because last year was just a repair (left meniscus). This one they had to take another part of my body and make that into a new ACL. Taking that piece of patellar tendon, it can get really sore." Chychrun has three goals and seven assists working against a minus-12 rating this season. He's a steady contributor, and there's plenty of offense for him to tap into once he feels more comfortable with the knee.

Chychrun sank a power-play goal in Saturday's 6-1 home win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

It's hard not to root for the 20-year-old given that he's had a heck of a time staying healthy early in his career. This was Chychrun's seventh game as part of the 2018-19 campaign, as he missed all of training camp and the first 16 contests due to a knee injury, and then an upper-body issue surfaced in mid-November. Sure, there's risk in deploying Arizona's first-round (16th overall) pick from the 2016 draft, but Chychrun is averaging more than 20 minutes of ice time with a role carved out on the No. 2 power play, so you could do much worse than to use him as a depth defenseman in fantasy hockey.

Playing in just his second game of the season on Wednesday, Chychrun tallied an assist in a 3-2 overtime loss to Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

The 20-year-old blueliner will hope to stay healthy moving forward, fortunate to have finally received clearance to return to Arizona's lineup on Wednesday after missing practically the entire first quarter of the season. In just his second game, Chychrun notched his first point of 2018-19 while also blocking a team-high four shots. Next up for him and the Coyotes is a date with the Avalanche on Friday.

Chychrun (upper body) will return to the lineup for Wednesday's game against Vegas, Dave Vest of the Coyotes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun has missed 15 of the first 16 games of the campaign due to injury, so he'll hope to avoid the injury bug now that he's once again been cleared to play. The 20-year-old blueliner is expected to skate with Niklas Hjalmarsson on Arizona's second pairing against the Golden Knights.

Chychrun (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Wednesday's home clash against the Golden Knights, Dave Vest of the Coyotes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun just cannot seem to stay healthy, as he sustained an upper-body injury after making his long-awaited return from an ACL tear last Wednesday. The Florida native remains on injured reserve, but we can picture him being activated if he looks good in the next on-ice session.

Chychrun (upper body) remains day-to-day despite his placement on injured reserve, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet noted that it's still too early to know whether or not he will be available for next Wednesday's game against the Golden Knights, but he can't be ruled out for the contest at this point either. Regardless of if he plays in that contest or not, it appears the blueliner's stay on injured reserve will be fairly short.

The Coyotes placed Chychrun (upper body) on injured reserve Friday, Cap Friendly reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun can't seem to catch a break. The 20-year-old blueliner returned from a long-term knee injury Tuesday against Detroit only to suffer an upper-body injury that could keep him sidelined for an extended period as well. The Coyotes have yet to release any details regarding a potential timeline for his recovery, but another update on the 2016 first-round pick's status should be released once he's able to return to practice.
