Playing career

Chartier was drafted by San Jose Sharks in the fifth round, 149th overall in the 2014 NHL entry draft. [1] On December 31, 2014, Chartier was signed by the San Jose Sharks to a three-year entry-level contract. [2] During the 2014–15 WHL season while playing with Kelowna Rockets, Chartier scored 48 goals and 34 assists, and was named to the WHL Western Conference First All-Star Team. He was further honoured when he was named the 2014–15 CHL Sportsman of the Year. [3] He was assigned to San Jose's American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, San Jose Barracuda. During the 2015–16 season, Chartier suffered a concussion during the 2015 Calder Cup playoffs, missing time right through to the beginning of the 2016–17 season. [4] He suffered another concussion on May 17, 2017 that prevented him from participating the 2017 Sharks training camp. He returned in November 2017 and suffered another head injury that kept him out until February 2018. [5] He spent the entire 2017–18 season with the Barracuda. He made the Sharks out of camp during the 2018–19 season, making his NHL debut on October 8, 2018 versus the New York Islanders. [1] He scored his first NHL goal on October 28, 2018 versus John Gibson of the Anaheim Ducks. [6] He played in 13 games before being sent to the Barracuda. He was recalled by the Sharks on December 12, 2018 [1] before being returned to the Barracuda on December 21. [7] He suffered another concussion in February 2019 that would end his season. [8]

Chartier as a free agent from the Sharks sat out the entirety of the 2019–20 season, due to lingering post-concussion symptoms. [9] On October 14, 2020, Chartier returned to the professional circuit by signing to a one-year AHL contract with Toronto Marlies. [10] In the pandemic-shortened 2020–21 season, Chartier made 28 appearances with the Marlies and finished with 2 goals and 8 points.

Approaching the 2021–22 season, Chartier attended Belleville Senators' training camp and made the opening night roster on a professional try-out basis. [11] In elevating his play, Chartier solidified his role within Belleville and after posting 10 goals and 23 points through 30 games was belatedly signed to a AHL contract on March 15, 2022. [12] After a successful debut season with Belleville, Chartier would continue with the club after signing a one-year, two-way contract with their NHL affiliate, Ottawa Senators for the 2022–23 season, on July 15, 2022. [13] On December 12, 2022, Chartier was recalled by Ottawa. [14] He played his first game for Ottawa that day in a 3–0 win over the Anaheim Ducks. [15] In his sixth game with Ottawa, he suffered an injury. [16] He was placed on injured reserve on December 27, 2022 [17] and was only activated on January 23, 2023 and immediately assigned to Belleville. [18]

On July 1, 2023, Chartier re-signed with Ottawa on a one-year two-way contract. [19] Chartier scored his first goal for Ottawa against Dustin Wolf on November 14 in a 4–1 win over the Calgary Flames. [20] Chartier suffered an upper body injury on December 15 in a game versus Dallas Stars. [21] He was placed on injured reserve on the following day. [22] Chartier returned from injury on January 13 and played that night against the San Jose Sharks. [23] On January 30, Chartier was placed on waivers and after going unclaimed, was assigned to Belleville on January 31. [24] Chartier was recalled on March 5 to replace Zack MacEwen. [25] Chartier was sent to and recalled from Belleville in a paper transaction at the trade deadline on March 9 that allowed him to play in the AHL playoffs. [26] In mid-March he suffered another upper body injury that kept him out until April 4, when he was assigned to Belleville. [27]

On July 18, 2024, having left the Senators organization after three seasons, Chartier signed as a free agent with Chinese-based club, Kunlun Red Star of the Kontinental Hockey League, on an initial one-year contract. [28]
