Chayka signed a three-year, entry-level contract with Vegas on Sunday.
Scouting Report
A stay-at-home defenseman from Russia, he uses a long stick that helps him break up plays. His offensive game is a work in progress, though he has good side-to-side mobility. His length helps him take away a lot of space in his own zone, although he can occasionally be beaten to the outside by speedy attackers.
Long Range Potential: Solid defensive defenseman.
