Senators’ Chabot set to return vs. Sabres after lower-body injury

Ottawa Senators defenceman Thomas Chabot confirmed to reporters ahead of the game against the Buffalo Sabres that he’s set to return after a month-long absence with a lower-body injury.

The 26-year-old only suited up for nine games this season after suffering a hand injury on Oct. 26, which kept him out until Dec. 01. This most recent stint on the long-term injured reserve came after sustaining a leg injury in a game against the Seattle Kraken on Dec. 2.

The Sainte-Marie, Que., native skated in a non-contact jersey on Dec. 30.

Coach Jacques Martin was asked about his potential return but said “I don’t know if he’s quite ready yet.”

In his limited ice time this season, Chabot has four assists and 20 blocked shots.

The Senators currently sit last in the Atlantic with a 13-18-0 record, good for 26 points.
