Chiasson acknowledges the hurdles but also values the privilege of playing in the NHL. He understands the importance of giving it his all, saying,
"I think as I've gotten older, I've realized that — and I've always said this: It's a privilege to play in the NHL. You can't take this for granted, and I know one day when I stop playing, whenever that is, that I really put it all out there. I could have taken the easy way out, but whatever opportunity that came my way, I fought for what I believe in, and that's to play in the NHL."
