Senators’ Chabot to play for Canada at World Championship

Thomas Chabot's season has the chance to end on a high note.

The Senators are likely to finish with the second-worst record in the Eastern Conference, but on the bright side, the rookie defenseman has accepted an invite to play for Canada at the World Championship, Ottawa confirmed Friday.

Chabot has dressed in 61 games this season and has put up nine goals and 25 points, good enough for fifth in scoring among all rookie defenders.

The 21-year-old recently represented Canada at the 2017 World Junior Championship, where he captured a silver medal and was named the tournament MVP, the best defenseman, and to the All-Star team.
