I said his 3rd year and his rookie year he did not have a good year, 3rd year still paced for 45 points (19/20)
Even if you take out the early years, last 3 he has been between 49-53 points and doing it battling injuries. If he stays healthy, he has 60 in him.

So he has one year that comes close to 60 points.
In 20/21 he was pretty much healthy and was at a 52 point pace
In 22/23 he was pretty much healthy and was at a 49 point pace
I think expecting him to have a 20-25% bump in production is a lofty goal. 60 points for a 8 million dollar dman in today's NHL should include being very good defensively which is not Chabot. A 60 point dman in today's NHL is somewhere between 12-15th in the league for dman scoring. It is more likely that the Flames would be getting a dman who is somewhere between 20-30 in the league for dmen scoring because I doubt he ever gets close to 60 points. Chabot is the 17th highest paid dman in the NHL so you would think if you are getting an average defensive dman (which he is at most) you would be getting a top 5-10 scoring dman for that price point.
