Latest news
Chisholm scored his first goal of the season in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Avalanche. He had two shots, two blocks and one hit.
Chisholm's point shot deflected off Avs' forward Brock Nelson in the slot and sailed past Scott Wedgewood in the second period. It was a nice effort by the journeyman, who skated into this season with just 134 NHL games spread over four years. His last goal came Jan. 29, 2026, and he has just seven goals and 30 points in his career. Don't expect big offense from Chisholm, and he doesn't really bring home support in hits, blocks or shots either. Enjoy it as a one-off and nothing more .

Chisholm was acquired by New Jersey from Washington on Thursday in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round pick.
Chisholm had a goal, seven points, a plus-3 rating, four PIM, 11 hits and 22 blocks in 26 appearances with the Capitals in 2025-26. The 26-year-old was a frequent healthy scratch last season, and while he's not guaranteed to secure a top-six spot with New Jersey, at least he'll get a fresh opportunity.

Chisholm was scratched for the 10th straight game in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Flyers.
After the arrival of Cole Hutson, the Capitals have five left-shot blueliners and nine total defensemen on the roster. That has left Chisholm as one of the regular scratches, even with fellow lefty Rasmus Sandin playing his off-side. Chisholm hasn't been anything more than a part-time option in his first year with the Capitals, earning seven points, 20 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 26 appearances.

Chisholm scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Red Wings.
Chisholm's goal was his first as a Capital. The 26-year-old defenseman stayed in the lineup for a second consecutive game due to the absence of Matt Roy (lower body). Chisholm and Dylan McIlrath continue to compete for depth minutes, but both often sit when the Capitals are healthy. For the season, Chisholm has four points, 18 shots on net and 18 blocked shots over 20 appearances.

Chisholm has sat out 14 of the Capitals' 21 games since the start of December after being scratched Tuesday in a 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens.
Chisholm and Dylan McIlrath have rotated into the lineup infrequently, but they're still far more often left in the press box. Chisholm has earned three assists, 15 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 17 outings this season. The 26-year-old would likely get a longer look if one of the Capitals' left-shot blueliners sustains a long-term injury.

Chisholm notched an assist and went plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Sharks.
Chisholm has been out of the lineup more often than not this season, but he got to play Wednesday because John Carlson (upper body) was out. Chisholm picked up his second helper of the year when he set up Sonny Milano's goal in the first period. For the season, Chisholm has added eight shots on net, nine blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 11 appearances. When he plays, he's likely to be confined to the third pairing, limiting his already minimal appeal in fantasy.
