Senators’ Chabot returns to lineup vs. Hurricanes

Ottawa Senators defenceman Thomas Chabot will be back in the lineup when his team hosts the Carolina Hurricanes Sunday night.

Chabot had missed the last five games with a lower-body injury.

Head coach Jacques Martin confirmed Chabot’s return before the game.

Chabot has six goals and 16 assists in 38 games this season. It has been a tough year for the 27-year-old who has missed time with hand and leg injuries.
