Chaffee tallied a goal, placed three shots on net and dished out three hits in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Carolina.
Thursday's outing was a special one for Chaffee, as he not only recorded his first goal with the Islanders, but it was also his first NHL goal since April 28, 2025. The 28-year-old Chaffee was called up from AHL Hamilton on Oct. 19, and has contributed six shots on net and 13 hits over seven appearances. He should remain a regular contributor to the Isles' lineup for as long as Matias Maccelli (lower body) and Calum Ritchie (lower body) are on injured reserve.

Chaffee was recalled from AHL Hamilton on Monday.
Chaffee is off to a strong start in the minors, racking up four goals and two assists through six games with the Hammers. As such, the 28-year-old winger seems to have earned his promotion to the big club. In a corresponding move, the Isles put Alexander Romanov (knee) on injured reserve.

Chaffee scored three goals in AHL Hamilton's 5-2 win over Belleville on Friday.
Chaffee's first game in the Islanders' organization was a big one. He helped the Hammers start off their new era in a positive manner following the team's rebrand and relocation from Bridgeport. Chaffee was better than a point-per-game player with AHL Syracuse in 2025-26, so he should be an effective minor-league scorer.

Chaffee was placed on waivers by the Islanders on Saturday.
Chaffee signed a one-year deal with the Isles in the offseason after he played in 11 games with Tampa Bay during the 2025-26 campaign. He did most of his damage last season with AHL Syracuse, where he posted 24 goals and 57 points across 54 regular-season outings. He'll look to be effective for the newly-relocated AHL Hamilton, and Chaffee could see some action with the Isles if the team runs into a stream of injuries.

Chaffee signed a one-year, $850,000 contract with the Islanders on Wednesday.
Chaffee logged a mere 11 games for the Lightning last season, producing one assist, 29 hits and nine shots while averaging 9:34 of ice time. While the 28-year-old winger should get a look during training camp, he'll face an uphill battle in securing a full-time NHL roster spot with the Islanders and could spend time in the minors.

Chaffee was reassigned to AHL Syracuse on Sunday.
Chaffee was recalled to play in the Lightning's regular-season finale against the Rangers, and he notched an assist for his first point of the season in his 11th NHL game of the campaign. The 28-year-old has excelled at the AHL level, registering 57 points (24 goals, 33 assists) in 54 games.
