Confirmed with Link: Chychrun to WSH for Nick Jensen and 2026 3rd

[bert]

And longer contract. More than double I think.

Is he mean and crease clearing? No. That’s what management wants. And what you want I thought?

Jensen isn't a crease clearer. He's a stay at home d. Walker spends no time in his zone and is not much different defensively.

 

[bert]

That's what the Sens need. Someone to take hard defensive zone minutes and PK. Hopefully he fits in and matches well with one of Sanderson or Chabot.

Best of a bad situation. The defense is more balanced, and roles will be more defined.

Last season roles never really seemed to be defined on defense, or forward for that matter.

Good post , I agree slotting is better. They added 2 High iq forward who are pretty versatile and experienced. Both have cups.

 

[The Waffler]

This new defence should be able to cut down on low danger shots

lol, that’s a step in the right direction.

I hope you guys are happy now. There goes our #1 Dman for nothing. lol

Probably should have re-upped him with one of those 8x8 Dorion deals.

Some of you are crying more than his grandpa did when he first scored.

what in the f*** were you watching last season.

#1 in giveaways and defensive zone lost coverage.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Not great. Not every move has to be great but he could have been moved later even at TDL and had salary for next year.

Personally I actually think this is a great move. Jensen is a lot better than people here are giving him credit for. He will stabilize our top-4.

 

[GCK]

The Chychrun return seems underwhelming until you remember how underwhelming Chychrun was.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Last year Washington had 5 D play over 1000 minutes at 5v5.
Jenson played the 3rd most all strengths minutes TOI/GP 19:37 and the most TOI/GP on the PK
Jenson had the lowest GA/60 ; 2nd lowest SCA/60 2nd lowest HDCA/60; Fewest Ozone Starts/60

His usage was primarily defensive and he faired pretty well.

I see his two most common D partners were Edmundson and Sandin too. Literally two of the worst d-men (defensively) in the league.

 

[HSF]

Chychrun helped nuke the return with his year-end interview IMO.

nah to be fair Staois indirectly confirmed he was being shopped near the deadline

odd move imo

 

[Micklebot]

I wonder if we put Jensen with Chabot or with Sanderson.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

I do wish it was TVR though.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Imagine giving up pick number 12 + 2 second rounders for a guy the league values at Jensen and a 3rd.

This board was ecstatic when he was acquired, some even arguing he was a #1 D because his stats somehow proved it. I was the lone voice saying "nawwwww man". lol

By mid season people were coming up with trade scenarios. Now he is gone and everyone is moving on to the next saviour/target.

Great times

Yeah amazing how people change their minds on a player after they see him play on their team. What a crazy concept.

 

[Icelevel]

Hope he’s able to play again.

We were excited and he also sucked. Both things can be true.

Also none of us that he’d be the #1 guy. We just thought he would round out the top 4.

Washington is laaaaaaaaughing

I’d put Sanderson with Zub.

Washington is laaaaaaaaughing

Were they watching highlights of Chychrun defending ?

 

[BondraTime]

I wonder if we put Jensen with Chabot or with Sanderson.

Chabot almost assuredly

Zub will keep his 21ish mins, Jenson will take 19ish.

Sanderson should be 24ish, Chabot 22ish

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

He can eat a bag of dicks for how much he destroyed this team.
