Chabot won't play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Maple Leafs due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear if Chabot could be able to play if this was a regular season contest, but the team will take the cautious approach and keep him out of the lineup. In his stead, Hubert Labrie will get the call in the lineup, and has never seen regular season NHL action in his career.

Chabot (foot) recorded three shots and a minus-1 rating for Team Canada in Friday's 3-1 defeat over Finland.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot -- who was dealing with a foot issue at the end of the NHL season -- appears to be no worse for wear and should continue to log heavy minutes for Canada at the 2019 IIHF World Championship. The 21-year-old thrived in the post Erik Karlsson era, setting career highs in goals (14), assists (41) and shots (185). Looking ahead to the 2019-20 campaign, the blueliner figures to continue to push for 50-60 points, giving him top-end fantasy value.

Chabot will need to undergo an MRI on his foot before determining whether he can join Canada for the World Championship, Wayne Scanlan of the Ottawa Citizen reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot racked up six points in his previous eight games, so his foot injury clearly wasn't too serious. The defenseman had a breakout season this year, as he racked up 14 goals, 41 helpers and 185 shots while averaging 24:17 of ice time, all of which were career highs. The Quebec native figures to continue featuring as the top scoring blueliner for Ottawa heading into the 2019-20 campaign and should provide top-end fantasy value.

Chabot picked up a pair of assists -- one on the power play -- in a 4-0 win over Buffalo on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The two assists give Chabot points in back-to-back contests, playing in just his second game since missing four with a toe injury that some felt could end his season prematurely. Having appeared in only 64 games in 2018-19, the 22-year-old has dazzled to the tune of 52 points.

Chabot recorded a power-play assist and four shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot had missed the four previous games with a toe injury but clearly didn't skip a beat. It was his 63rd game of the year, the same amount he appeared in with Ottawa during the 2017-18 campaign, but he's doubled his point total this year.

Chabot (toe) will slot back into the lineup for Saturday's matchup with Edmonton, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot was able to travel with the team on their three-game road trip with the notion that he could play in the final game against Edmonton, and it appears to be coming to fruition. The Quebec native has missed four games since sustaining a broken toe March 11. Chabot will likely slot back into the top defensive line and will look to add to the 49 points (13 goals, 36 assists) he's scored this season.

Chabot (toe) is joining the team on their three-game road trip and could play against Edmonton on Saturday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot has missed the last two games with this injury and was considered week-to-week starting March 13. Of course, the Senators -- who currently sit in last place in the league with 56 points -- could opt to rest the Quebec native for the last leg of the season. Chabot has reached career highs in his third NHL season, racking up 49 points (13 goals, 46 assists) through 62 games. More information on the blueliner's availability should become available closer to Saturday's puck drop.

Chabot is considered week-to-week moving forward due to a broken toe and hopes to rejoin the action at some point this season, Brent Wallace of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot has really come into his own offensively in his third year at the NHL level, racking up 13 goals and 36 assists over 62 contests. Unfortunately, there's a chance it may end there if his toe issue doesn't progress quickly. An already subpar Senators squad will be without one of its key contributors for the foreseeable future, so opposing netminders, who have already fared well against the Senators of late, will have a little less firepower to contend with.

Chabot helped set up Filip Chlapik's first goal of the year, but his team fell short in a 3-2 loss to Philadelphia on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot has just two points since the trade deadline, as he's struggling to find the scoresheet without the Senators' finishers around. Chabot looks like a genuine star of the future and will keep getting better, but for now, look elsewhere, as he isn't likely to produce at the levels you need over the last month of the season.

Chabot set up a Brian Gibbons goal in the second period of a 5-4 shootout loss to the Islanders on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot's assist was his 35th of the year, but he's only posted two points since Ottawa sold off some of its biggest assets. As good as he's been this season and projects to be for the future, it doesn't look like that's going to continue in the fantasy playoffs, as the Senators' fire sale has left Chabot without finishers around him and dampened his value in 2018-19. The talent is very much there, but the numbers might not be without proven scorers around to finish the job.
