Chiasson was missing from Monday's practice due to an undisclosed injury and is questionable to play Tuesday vs. The Penguins. Taro Hirose was recalled from the AHL on Tuesday morning, suggesting that Chiasson will be unavailable.

Chiasson had nine goals, 20 points, 14 PIMs, and a +6 plus/minus through 29 games this season with Grand Rapids (AHL) and has signed a one-year, one-way contract worth $750,000. He played 67 games for the Vancouver Canucks in 2021-22, scoring 13 goals and 22 points.

Chiasson missed the last two games with a non-COVID illness but will play Thursday in Minnesota. Chiasson has been red-hot as go late and should be back in a top-6 role and on the top PP unit.

Chiasson was scratched Monday vs. the Stars and is questionable to play in the second half of their back-to-back on Tuesday. Monitor his status as the Canucks hit the ice for warmups at 9:30 PM ET.

Chiasson has been playing very well recently, scoring six goals with four assists (10 points) in his last seven games. He was a late scratch on Monday and that leaves him questionable to play in the second half of the Canucks' back-to-back when they take on the Senators on Tuesday.

The Canucks do not play until next Tuesday, so it's entirely possible that Chiasson doesn't miss any time as long as he returns negative tests ahead of their trip to Florida.

Chiasson turned his PTO into a one-year deal, picking up one assist in three preseason games. Chiasson was skating on the top line with Elias Pettersson in Tuesday's practice, so he'll play a big role while Brock Boeser is out.

With Zack Kassian out week-to-week with an upper-body injury, Chiasson will play Tuesday vs. the Senators. Chiasson was a healthy scratch for the last two games but re-enters the lineup with no points, six shots and a minus-4 rating in seven games this season.

Chiasson was a healthy scratch vs. Carolina on Tuesday but will replace Patrick Russell in the lineup on Thursday. Chiasson, who will skate on the second line with Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, has 10 points (3G / 7A) in 28 games this season.

Chiasson is expected to miss his second straight game with an illness. With Chiasson sidelined, Patrick Russell will remain in the Oilers lineup against the Islanders. Chiasson is day-to-day.

Chiasson has missed the last three games with a knee injury but will play Saturday in Los Angeles. Chiasson was hot before getting hurt, scoring five goals with two assists in his last nine games. However, he will start on a line with Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and not Connor McDavid on Saturday.

Chiasson was in the lineup for the last two games, picking up one assist and a plus-1 rating. He will be replaced by Jakub Vrana tonight vs. the Senators.
