Chychrun finished 4th in OHL defence man scoring behind Rasmus Andersson and Mikhail Sergachev. Offensive is a strength of his, not a weakness.

I've heard coach Hatcher reined him in a bit or he might've put up even crazier numbers.
It was either Button or Cox who where relaying concerns about how his offence will translate from scouts. I can't find it though for the life of me.

Offensive numbers in JR don't always translate to the NHL as you know.

He is much better defensively than he is offensively without a doubt in my mind, but he does have the tools to be good at both. I think he will have stats comparable to Vlasic FWIW.
