The Carolina Hurricanes are back on the winning side of things, and it feels good. It feels even better for the defenseman, Jalen Chatfield, as he has scored a goal in each of the two victories.
The right-handed defenseman from Michigan is heating up as he gets more acclimated with the NHL and the Carolina organization.
Rod Brind’Amour has become more and more comfortable playing Chatfield in big situations and for more time on the ice.
Normally, Chatfield has gotten 15-19 shifts a game, averaging around 13 minutes of ice time.
On December 22nd, the 26-year-old played a season-high ice time of 16:34.
