Chabot hasn't scored since putting up three points on Dec. 1, a game that also included his first career goal.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot was rewarded for his play with an expanded role for two games, but he didn't take advantage of it and has seen his ice time dwindle to about 11 minutes a game. He's an exciting option in dynasty formats, but unless he gets things figured out soon, he probably won't be much help in 2017-18.

Chabot took home a game puck for recording his first career goal in Friday's 6-5 road win over the Islanders. For good measure, the rookie defenseman also tacked on a pair of power-play assists.
EDGE Analysis
He was already in consideration for an expanded role with Chris Wideman (hamstring) expected to be sidelined for 4-to-6 months, but Chabot -- who helped the Senators put an end to a seven-game losing streak -- used his game to show coach Guy Boucher that perhaps he should've been with the Senators since Opening Night. The Quebec native has tallied at least one point in four of his first six NHL games. We recommend checking to see if he's available in deep leagues, but the highly touted prospect should already be widely owned in dynasty formats.

Chabot was called up from AHL Belleville on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot has been bouncing between the NHL and the minors so far in 2017-18, and will return to serving as the emergency defensemen for Ottawa. The 20-year-old has notched three points in the five games he's played in this year, but he'll likely need more injuries to arise in Ottawa to receive consistent playing time.

Chabot was sent down to AHL Belleville on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot was called up on Nov. 20 and appeared in two games for Ottawa, registering one assist and a minus-2 rating. The 20-year-old blueliner will likely continue to spend most of his time in the AHL.

Chabot was called up from AHL Belleville on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The all-around defensemen has spent the majority of his season in the minors, posting seven points in 12 games. However with Mark Borowiecki (concussion) and Chris Wideman (hamstring) both sidelined at the moment, Chabot's services will be called upon. In the three games Chabot appeared with Ottawa in October he averaged 13:40 of ice time, so a third-line pairing is likely for the youngster when he gets the nod to suit up.

Chabot was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
A highly touted prospect from the back line, Chabot tacked on a helper in consecutive games against the Flames and Oilers, respectively, before getting sent down. Since he's such a promising talent on a two-way contract, expect Chabot to move about the organization's ranks a fair amount this season.

Chabot was recalled from AHL Belleville on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Ben Harpur was originally recalled as a reinforcement to injured Ottawa defensemen Erik Karlsson (foot) and Johnny Oduya (lower body) but Harpur sustained an upper-body ailment of his own Saturday. Enter Chabot, who the Senators selected 18th overall in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. The left-shooting rearguard added 45 points (10 goals, 35 assists) in 34 regular-season games for the Saint John Sea Dogs of the QMJHL in 2016-17.

Chabot was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
A first-round pick in 2015, GM Pierre Dorion got Chabot's hype train rolling when he declared the player NHL-ready in early July. However, Chabot looked overmatched during Saturday's 9-2 demolition at the hands of Montreal and posted a horrendous minus-5 rating. That said, Chabot still has boatloads of talent and should find himself back at the NHL level after gaining some valuable professional experience in the minors.

Chabot went minus-5 with a pair of giveaways Saturday in a 9-2 preseason road thrashing by the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
This guy won three different awards with his junior club -- the Saint John Sea Dogs -- including laying claim to playoff MVP honors last season. Heading into this final preseason match, Chabot produced one goal, two helpers and a plus-4 rating, but there's no sugarcoating just how bad he and the vast majority of his teammates were in this one. Senators GM Pierre Dorion had sung the young defenseman's praises earlier in the summer, deeming the 20-year-old NHL ready, so perhaps the prospect will get a free pass here.

Senators GM Pierre Dorion said Chabot is "ready to play in the NHL right now," Steve Warne of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot is a highly touted prospect from the blue line. He absolutely shredded QMJHL competition as a member of the Saint John Sea Dogs over the past four seasons, unloading 153 points (34 goals, 119 assists) over 202 regular-season games, and he managed greater than one point per contest in the last two years of playoff action. Chabot's stellar play led to his taking home three pieces of hardware, including the 2017 Guy Lafleur Trophy for postseason MVP. Since Ottawa lost defenseman Marc Methot to the Golden Knights during the expansion draft --he was subsequently traded to Dallas -- there's suddenly a glaring hole on the back line for the Senators; it appears that Chabot is the frontrunner for the gig.
