Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun was snoozing last Monday afternoon in St. Louis, taking a pregame nap like he usually does before leaving for the rink.
Or at least he was until he heard rap music by Drake spilling out from the bathroom where winger Lawson Crouse was in the shower.
“I couldn’t believe it,” Chychrun said, “because he’s been great all year and then out of nowhere he just starts blasting music.”
Crouse typically tries to time it so that when he wakes up from his nap, which is usually only 30 or 40 minutes, Chychrun – who likes to bank an hour-and-a-half of rest – is also starting to stir.
