Trade Likely After Jakob Chychrun Gives Up on the Senators
Less than a year after the Ottawa Senators traded a conditional first-round draft pick in 2023, a conditional second-round selection in 2024, and a second-round pick in 2026 to the Arizona Coyotes for Jakob Chychrun, it looks like the defenseman has already given up on the Sens.
Chychrun Already Tired of the Senators
The defenseman always had a special bond with Ottawa. He has a lot of family members in the area, and his father played there.
Unfortunately, it seems like he had a change of heart, and his days in Ottawa could be numbered.
Very unlikely that he extends, far more likely that he's dealt before becoming a UFA #GoSensGo
Chychrun Reportedly Reluctant to Sign Extension in Ottawa
The Senators are currently in the last position in the Atlantic Division. This doesn't reflect at all the talent in their roster. They made major changes this season, firing DJ Smith and naming Jacques Martin as interim head coach.
However, they won't make the playoffs once again this year, despite high expectations.
This certainly comes in when trying to explain Chychrun's reluctance to sign an extension in Ottawa.
The new general manager, Steve Staios, could be looking to make a trade before the deadline, and with his contract ending this year, Chychrun stands out as a potential trade candidate.
Do you think the Senators will trade Chychrun?
