Player Discussion Thomas Chabot (D) Extended 8 years 8M AAV

[Adrianopolous]

Chabot’s spot has never been a lock. He’s always been considered a guy that could make it but could always very well be left out due to Canada’s depth at LD. Nothing has changed since this summer and no one knows who is on the outside looking in at this point. At least do a little bit of research if you want your gaslighting to be somewhat credible.

Not a lock per say, but many analysts had him on the second pair, though now he is generally being listed as an extra or not at all.

Jon Cooper witnessed Chabot's worst game of the year last Saturday (with Zaitsev). Doesn't really bode well for him.. Though with strong play in the next little while, things might change.

By who? Where are you seeing this? Got any receipts?

Again, many analysts had him on the team and many had him off it. Nothing has changed and he’s still very much in the conversation to make the team.

Got to bag one soon if he wants to earn his 8 mil

he didn’t score in his WJC tournament - could be his thing.

He scored 4 times in the World Juniors

Chabot and Zub is a solid #1 pairing that prevents goals, the offense will come if they had more time together. I won't be surprised if he doesn't make Team Canada considering how deep Team Canada is. I just hope the roster is assembled with consideration to how much players like CHabot have to play and decide the best roster based off ability and not legacy. No 2006 Olympic vibes where some vets are selected for the sake of legacy.

 

[OD99]

Ya, where did that idea he didn't score come from? A few were absolute beauties too!

 

[coladin]

He has gone back to one speed, which bodes badly for him. Too many minutes

 

[OD99]

Would love to see him have a multi-point game or 2 in the next few as he is certainly help get the puck in the right areas but he just isn't getting the payoff on the scoreboard.

I do think in general that we do not shoot the puck to score from the point enough, particularly on the PP. Even if just to shake the look up a bit and not be so predictable - everyone expects the down low bump up to the slot or across the seam and we aren't getting the same opportunities.

 

[Xspyrit]

Seriously? Chabot has been incredible, he’s the only reason we haven’t lost every game 10-0. He’s literally doing everything out there.

Yeah, not sure what people are watching. Remove Chabot and Batherson from this team one minute and we're almost as bad as the Coyotes.

I hope we don't waste too much of his prime.

meant WJC before we drafted him not after.

[Tuna99]

my bad - wrong thread.

Chabot to Stuz for his 1st goal
Stuz to Chabot for his first PP goal

 

[Golden_Jet]

Put down the booze lol

 

[BondraTime]

Mixing up players, happens

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

yes he did, in 2020 and he didn’t score

lol - oh I thought you were talking about Chabot for some reason

 

[SensFactor]

He's not worth his price-tag. However without him and Zub we would have a full AHL defense.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Chabot is our definitive best player. AINEC.

Unless we draft Nemec/Jiri and they anchor another pairing and Chabot is traded in a hockey trade for an area of need 3-4 years from now when we obviously aren't clicking and need a change up? Sure.

Ya'll forget how insane Chabot can be in the clutch. Remember earlier this year when he locked down Mackinnon. It's not easy to do that. He is going to be ice clutch for us and I gather our best player in any competitive run.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Assets get moved. I like Chabot and he's got a great contract

But if our guys develop to their ceilings

Sanderson Thomson
Brannstrom Zub
Kleven JBD

A couple years out with Chabot moved for a star up front of similar age and contract wouldn't surprise me

I'm not saying I'm advocating it, just that it wouldn't surprise me

Bro no lmao

 

[GCK]

Cause I can't say you're crazy so I'll say that's a crazy stupid comment. Chabot is a star.

He clearly stated he wasn’t advocating for this. If the right situation ever came up it would be crazy to say he’s untouchable.
