Chiasson scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson scored Detroit's only goal of the game 17:44 into the third period, redirecting an Andrew Copp feed past Jusse Saros. Chiasson has scored in three straight games, with all his goals coming on the power play. He's logged five points in six contests since joining the Red Wings on March 4. While he won't keep scoring at his current pace, Chiasson's role as a power-play specialist offers some upside down the stretch.

Chiasson netted a power-play goal in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson parked at the doorstep and patiently waited for the play to develop before potting his first goal as a Red Wing. The veteran is only four games in with the Wings, yet he's already seeing action on the No. 1 power-play unit. On the downside, Chiasson is averaging only 10:14 of ice time, so it'll be tough for him to sustain this lofty rate of production.

Chiasson recorded two assists -- including a power-play helper -- in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Go figure. Chiasson, the newest Red Wing, was the only one on his team to register two points in the comeback victory. The Wings will likely be without Michael Rasmussen (knee) for the rest of the season, so Chiasson will at least be counted on for fourth-line minutes, and so far, he's being utilized on the No. 2 power-play unit.

Chiasson signed a one-year contract with the Red Wings on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson will have to go on waivers and should easily pass through as he has spent the entire season with AHL Grand Rapids, where he has nine goals and 20 points in 29 games. The 32-year-old veteran has played 631 games at the NHL level during his career, scoring 114 goals and adding 110 assists.

Chiasson was released by Arizona from his professional tryout on Monday.

Chiasson signed a professional tryout contract with the Coyotes on Wednesday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson was an effective power-play option for the Canucks last year, recording 10 of his 22 points with the man advantage. He added 98 shots on net and 68 hits in a bottom-six role. With the Coyotes lacking forward depth, the 31-year-old winger could have a chance to carve out a similar role if he impresses enough in training camp to earn a contract.

Chiasson scored a goal and added two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson tied the game at 2-2 with a goal at 14:31 of the third period. This was his first point in four games since he returned from an illness. The 31-year-old winger struggled for much of the season before moving into a top-six role in April. He's at 13 tallies, 22 points, 92 shots on net, 67 hits and a plus-4 rating through 66 contests.

Chiasson (illness) will play in Thursday's matchup with Minnesota, Thomas Drance of The Athletic Vancouver reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson was red-hot before getting sick -- with five goals and four assists, including four power-play points, in his last five contests. Prior to this recent strong run of form, the 31-year-old winger had managed just 12 points in 57 contests, so fantasy players may not want to bank on Chiasson's productivity continuing.

Chiasson (illness) is not on the ice for warmups, indicating he'll miss Tuesday's game versus the Senators, Ben Kuzma of The Vancouver Province reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chiasson was deemed a game-time decision entering the contest, and he'll his second straight game. He had nine points in his previous five outings, so this is a somewhat notable loss for the Canucks. The winger's next chance to play is Thursday versus the Wild.
