Chychrun scored a goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights.

The goal was Chychrun's first as a Capital. The 26-year-old defenseman has immediately taken on a top-four role with his new team, adding four shots on net, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over two appearances. Chychrun will likely feature on the second power-play unit while playing alongside John Carlson on the top pairing at even strength.
