Chychrun not only made the Coyotes out of camp, but he looks like an absolute stud, IMO, all before his 19th birthday.

The scouts that picked the 4 defenseman ahead of Chychrun should be ashamed.
Not so sure that is how it worked, but it is fair to say Chychrun looks to be outperforming his draft position. I wouldn't say "stud", based on limited viewing, however. Time will tell.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
