The 2022 Winter Olympics are just two months away, and countries are beginning the process of naming their rosters. Hockey Canada still has about a month to name who they would like, but as Doug Armstrong said on November 19th, “80-90%” of players have already been decided behind closed doors.
Somebody who might be in that extra 10-20% is Thomas Chabot of the Ottawa Senators.
Chabot has never been a lock for the Olympic team, and in fact, I’d ultimately be happily surprised if he does get the call. But that doesn't mean he doesn’t deserve it, because Chabot is absolutely one of Canada’s eight best defensemen at the moment.
