Chaffee (undisclosed) will miss Wednesday's game against Washington, per Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee wasn't on the ice for Tuesday's practice due to the injury. He has five goals and nine points over 20 appearances in 2024-25. Cam Atkinson, who has spent the past two games as a healthy scratch, is expected to draw into the lineup versus the Capitals.

Chaffee (undisclosed) didn't practice Tuesday and is day-to-day, according to Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee left Monday's 8-2 win over Colorado in the second period and didn't return. He has earned five goals, nine points, 19 shots on net and 25 hits over 20 appearances this season. If Chaffee can't play Wednesday against Washington, Cam Atkinson will probably suit up after being a healthy scratch for the last two games.

Chaffee had a goal and an assist in a 7-6 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The third-line winger has five goals, three assists, 21 hits, 16 shots and eight blocks in 18 games this season. Chaffee is a hard-working winger, but doesn't really offer much fantasy value, even with a role on the second power-play unit. The points were Chaffee's first in six games, and he hasn't picked up any points with the man advantage.

Chaffee found the back of the net in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee scored his fourth goal of the season in the second period of Sunday's defeat. The Michigan native added three shots, one takeaway and a minus-1 rating in 16:17 of ice time. Chaffee is filling a bottom-six role, and he's offered solid depth production with four goals and two assists over 12 appearances.

Chaffee scored a goal in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee has scored in back-to-back games and now has three tallies and five points through nine contests overall. The 26-year-old saw 10 seconds of power-play time Monday, but he's still not regularly in the mix with the man advantage. That's about the only complaint one could have with his start to the season, as he's added 13 hits, six shots on net, four PIM and a plus-3 rating while filling a middle-six role.

Chaffee scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee saw a season-high 14:23 of ice time in this win. The 26-year-old netted his second goal of the year, ending a two-game dry spell on offense. He's up to four points, five shots on net, 13 hits, four PIM and a plus-2 rating through eight appearances. If he can keep chipping in supporting offense, his physical playing style could make him an option in deep fantasy formats.

Chaffee posted an assist, four hits and two PIM in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee has found the scoresheet in the last three games (one goal, two assists). He also saw a season-high 13:30 of ice time Tuesday. The 26-year-old has seen the bulk of his NHL ice time on the fourth line in his career, but a strong start to 2024-25 has him positioned to be an option in the middle six on a more regular basis going forward.

Chaffee scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee got the Lightning within a goal in the third period, but the comeback stalled out there. The 26-year-old has two points, two shots on net, four hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over four appearances this season. Chaffee looks to be secure in a fourth-line role, as head coach Jon Cooper has often opted to scratch one of Cam Atkinson or Conor Sheary up front.

Chaffee produced an assist in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

The helper was Chaffee's first point in three appearances this season. The winger has added three hits, two blocked shots, two PIM and one shot on goal. He's locked into a fourth-line role, but it wouldn't be surprising if he was occasionally designated a healthy scratch this season. He played in 30 regular-season games with the Lightning last year, producing seven points and 88 hits.

Chaffee agreed to terms on a two-year, $1.6 million contract with Tampa Bay on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Chaffee's deal is a one-way contract, which should increase his chances of playing in more than 30 NHL games this upcoming season. During the 2023-24 campaign, the 26-year-old winger notched four goals on 27 shots, three assists and 88 hits while averaging 11:07 of ice time. Even with his new deal in hand, Chaffee is unlikely to challenge for more than a bottom-six role next season.
