Chabot Piles Up Two Assists, but Senators Fall in Overtime
Ottawa's defenceman finishes plus 2 as Washington escapes Ottawa with a 3-2 extra-time win.
Thomas Chabot put two assists on the sheet for Ottawa and finished plus 2, but the Senators still lost 3-2 in overtime to the Capitals.
The defenceman played 21:03 over 23 shifts. That ranked fourth among Ottawa's 18 skaters and second among the team's six defencemen, behind one teammate on the back end. Both points came at even strength, and he had no power-play production. He put one shot on goal and blocked one shot, with one takeaway against one giveaway. He had no hits and took no penalties.
Two assists in one night is a good return for a player with one goal and nine assists through 15 games. His 21 minutes were a little under his season average of 23.8 per game.
Ottawa picked up a point for the night, but the extra time went against the Senators, and Chabot's two helpers did not turn into a win.
