Leaves Tuesday's game Chatfield (lower body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Bruins.

Puts away goal in win Chatfield scored a goal in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Penguins.

Impact This was just the second goal of the season for Chatfield. He snapped an eight-game point drought with the tally. The 29-year-old defenseman fills a shutdown role in the Hurricanes' top four, which explains his limited offense. For the season, he's at 16 points, 87 shots on net, 55 blocked shots, 34 hits and a plus-15 rating over 63 appearances, production roughly in line with what he's done over the last couple of years.

Two helpers in Ottawa Chatfield picked up two assists in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Senators.

Impact Both helpers came in the first period as the Hurricanes grabbed a 3-0 lead, as Chatfield had a hand in tallies by William Carrier and Taylor Hall. Chatfield led all Carolina blueliners in even-strength ice time (19:40) on Saturday as Shayne Gostisbehere (lower body) missed a fifth straight game, but he hadn't taken much advantage of the extra workload so far. Saturday's assists were Chatfield's first points since Jan. 8.

Impact Chatfield returned from a seven-game stint on injured reserve while in the league's concussion protocol.

Off injured reserve Chatfield (concussion protocol) has been taken off injured reserve Friday.

The 29-year-old defenseman has three assists, six PIM, 20 shots, 10 hits and 14 blocks in 13 appearances this season. Mike Reilly might end up being a healthy scratch as a result of Chatfield's return.

Nabs helper in win Chatfield posted an assist in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.

Impact Chatfield had to play without usual partner Jaccob Slavin (lower body), and that could be the case throughout the Hurricanes' six-game road trip. Both defensemen were banged up during the preseason, but Chatfield has been healthy to begin the regular season. The 29-year-old is at one assist, two shots on net, two hits, three blocked shots, four PIM and a plus-2 rating over three appearances. He'll continue to play an important on-ice role for the Hurricanes, but his style doesn't translate well in fantasy.
