The Washington Capitals have re-signed Jakob Chychrun to an 8-year contract extension with a cap hit of $9 million.
Chychrun, 26, has 18 goals and 25 assists in 65 games for the Capitals this season.
The Capitals acquired Chychrun from the Ottawa Senators last June in exchange for Matt Roy and a 3rd round pick. Chychrun was set to be a UFA this summer.
