Chabot scored a goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Both points came in the third period as he dragged the Senators out of a 2-0 deficit to earn a point in the standings. Chabot has been a steady contributor over the last month, recording two goals and eight points in the last 12 games with exactly half that production coming on the power play. The 27-year-old blueliner has missed significant time this season due to injuries, but if he's able to stay healthy, he should be able to put together a strong finish to the campaign.

Chabot scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 3-2 overtime loss to Boston. He fired seven shots.
EDGE Analysis
Both points came on the power play. Chabot's goal came at 19:32 of the second period to get the Sens on the board with some momentum as they headed to the final frame. The goal was Chabot's second of the season (22 games; two goals, 11 assists). The seven shots were a season high for the smooth defender. Chabot has been hampered by injury pretty much every season of his career. He should be a solid performer going forward as long as he stays healthy. But remember to downgrade him a touch at draft next fall -- you can't win with your stud defender in the infirmary for too long.

Chabot posted an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and four blocked shots in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot has three helpers over two contests since he returned from a leg injury. The defenseman has had trouble staying healthy this season, but he's been useful for fantasy managers with eight assists across 11 outings. He's added 31 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating. Chabot should see top-four minutes and power-play time, making him a solid option in standard fantasy formats.

Chabot picked up two assists in Sunday's 5-1 win over Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old blueliner added two shots on net, two PIM and a plus-2 rating to his ledger in his first action since Dec. 2. Chabot missed 12 contests in between due to a leg injury, his second lengthy absence of the season, but Sunday's performance is a strong sign he's 100 percent and already back up to game speed. He's played only 10 games so far in 2023-24, but Chabot has contributed six helpers, 28 shots on goal, 20 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating.

Chabot (leg) will be activated from long-term injured reserve ahead of his return to the lineup Sunday versus Buffalo, according to Claire Hanna of TSN.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot told TSN 1200 Ottawa on Sunday that he suffered a fracture to his tibia after an extreme hyper extension against Seattle on Dec. 2. The 26-year-old blueliner has registered four assists, 26 shots on goal and 20 blocked shots in only nine appearances this season. Chabot skated alongside Jake Sanderson on the top pairing during Saturday's practice. Chabot could also see time on the second power-play unit. His return may bump Jacob Bernard-Docker from the lineup.

Chabot (lower body) is wearing a regular jersey at practice Saturday, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot has missed the last 13 games and has played in only two of the Senators' past 25 contests as he suffered a hand injury in late October that cost him 10 outings. Chabot has four assists in nine games this season. Look for the blueliner to return during the upcoming five-game road trip that begins Tuesday in Vancouver. Chabot should regain his spot quarterbacking the first power play, forcing Jake Sanderson down to the second unit.

Coach Jacques Martin expects Chabot (lower body) to return at some point during the Senators' upcoming five-game road trip, which begins Tuesday against Vancouver and ends Jan. 11 versus the Sabres, Claire Hanna of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot will miss a 12th straight game Friday against the Devils, but it sounds like the 26-year-old blueliner should be ready to return sooner rather than later. Chabot, who's picked up four helpers through nine contests this campaign, should slide into a top-pairing role and a spot on the No. 1 power-play unit upon his return to the lineup.

Chabot (lower body) was moved to long-term injured reserve Thursday, per PuckPedia.com.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot was already projected to miss at least four weeks because of the injury, so this move doesn't alter his timetable, but it does provide the Senators with short-term cap flexibility. The defenseman is in the fourth campaign of an eight-year, $64 million contract. Chabot has four assists, three hits and 20 blocks in nine contests this year.

Chabot (lower body) is expected to miss at least four weeks, Darren Dreger of TSN reports Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Chabot returned from a hand injury Friday, but he played in just two contests before being hurt again. It's been a difficult campaign for the 26-year-old defenseman, who has four assists, three hits and 20 blocks in nine appearances. Erik Brannstrom is likely to continue to play regularly while Chabot is unavailable.

Chabot (lower body) won't play Thursday versus the Maple Leafs, Wayne Scanlan of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
An update on Chabot's injury is expected Wednesday, which may provide clarity on how much longer he'll be out. The absence will be at least two games after this latest update. His injury has allowed for both of Jacob Bernard-Docker and Erik Brannstrom to stay in the lineup.
