“Could the Blue Jackets Land a Game-Changer? Inside the Buzz Surrounding Chychrun and a Surprising UFA Target!”
Bancroft attended the Bruins Development Camp last year.
The initial reaction was the Washington Capitals may have overpaid for Jakob Chychrun, but the landscape is changing
TSN: Chris Johnston said that the Washington Capitals extending defenseman Jakob Chychrun for eight years at $9 million caught some people around the league off guard. Some think that the salary cap could be at around $120 million in four years time, so that $9 million may be a bargain.
“As for how this deal went down, there were discussions earlier in the season between Chychrun and the Capitals with a desire to get something done. Because of the uncertain landscape, it was a little slow moving, but finally here in the last 48-72 the Capitals’ offer came up big time and they were comfortable getting someone they hope will be a pillar in the future signed long-term.”
