Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Fills empty cage
Matheson scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Canucks.
Matheson's offense has been strong to begin March -- he has two goals and two assists, as well as 10 shots on net, over his last five games. He was the only Canadien besides the team's top line to get on the scoresheet Tuesday. The 31-year-old blueliner is up to six goals, 29 points, 118 shots on net, 125 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 62 appearances. Matheson has well-rounded production in most areas to maintain a decent level of fantasy value.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Two points including OT winner
Matheson scored the game-winning goal in overtime and added a shorthanded assist in Monday's 4-3 victory over Buffalo.
His shot from the top of the faceoff circle 81 seconds into OT handcuffed James Reimer and gave the Habs their fifth straight win. It was Matheson's first GWG of the season and his first multi-point performance since Jan. 14. Although the 31-year-old has ceded his spot as the top offensive threat on the Montreal blue line to Lane Hutson, Matheson is still on track for a solid season -- he has five goals and 28 points through 59 appearances.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Snags helper Saturday
Matheson provided an assist and four blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Sabres.
Matheson has four points over his last nine outings while maintaining a top-four role. The 31-year-old blueliner is at 26 points, 108 shots on net, 115 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 48 appearances. Matheson can provide a bit of category coverage, but his offense has taken a hit with a smaller power-play role following the emergence of Lane Hutson as the first-unit quarterback this season.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Earns power-play assist in loss
Matheson notched a power-play assist, five shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Lightning.
Matheson has done well early in February with three points over five contests -- he had just four points over 14 outings in January. The defenseman is now at 25 points (10 on the power play), 104 shots on net, 103 blocked shots, 41 hits, 43 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 54 appearances. Matheson continues to play heavy minutes, but the emergence of Lane Hutson as an offensive force on the blue line has left Matheson to handle a more defensive workload.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Scores on pinball shot
Matheson scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Kings.
Matheson's shot deflected high in the air and bounced into the net. That's one way to end a 10-game goal drought, which is what Matheson did. He had just one assist in that stretch, but he's maintained a top-four role because of his defensive duties. The blueliner is at four goals, 20 assists, 97 shots on net, 102 blocked shots, 39 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 52 appearances this season.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Picks up power-play assist Sunday
Matheson recorded a power-play assist in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.
Matheson set up a Christian Dvorak tally in the first period. The helper ended an eight-game slump for Matheson, and it was his first power-play point since Jan. 3. The defenseman is now at 23 points (nine on the power play), 93 shots on net, 99 blocked shots, 37 hits, 39 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 50 contests this season.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Goal, assist in win
Matheson scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two PIM, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
The goal was a dazzler for any player, let alone a defenseman. Matheson was able to convert on an end-to-end rush by himself to tie the game at 1-1 in the first period. The blueliner also helped out on Cole Caufield's third-period tally, which was the game-winner. The arrival of Lane Hutson has stolen some of Matheson's thunder, but he's still a capable all-around defenseman in his own right. For the season, the 30-year-old has three goals, 22 points, 82 shots on net, 85 blocked shots, 35 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 41 appearances. His tally Tuesday was his first since Nov. 30.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Dishes pair of assists in loss
Matheson recorded two assists, eight shots on goal and three hits in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Blackhawks.
Matheson has earned five assists over his last nine contests. The eight shots on net Friday marked a season high for a single game. The 30-year-old blueliner has 20 points, 72 shots on net, 75 blocked shots, 31 PIM, 24 hits and a minus-7 rating through 36 outings overall. Matheson continues to fill a top-four role.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Nabs helper in win
Matheson recorded an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Lightning.
Matheson has three helpers and a plus-2 rating over his last seven contests. The 30-year-old defenseman is still finding ways to chip in even with a smaller power-play role this year. He's at 18 points, 64 shots on net, 73 blocked shots, 31 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 34 appearances. Matheson likely won't come close to last year's 11-goal, 62-point showing, but he's on pace to top the 40-point mark while adding blocks and PIM aplenty.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Supplies assist Friday
Matheson managed an assist and went minus-2 in Friday's 4-3 win over the Red Wings.
Matheson helped out on Emil Heineman's opening goal in the first period. This was Matheson's second assist over the last three games, but he's been limited to just three helpers through nine outings in December. The 30-year-old defenseman has 17 points, 66 blocked shots, 56 shots on net, 29 PIM and a minus-12 rating through 30 contests this season. His defensive numbers will struggle since he plays big minutes on a team that often is outmatched, but Matheson adds enough offense to be a factor in fantasy anyway.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Hands out helper in loss
Matheson notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Jets.
Matheson got the puck to Lane Hutson for the rookie defenseman's first NHL tally on a blast from the faceoff dot. The helper ended a four-game slump for Matheson, though that dry spell hasn't cost him his top-pairing spot. The 30-year-old is at 16 points, 50 shots on net, 62 blocked shots, 29 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 28 appearances. It's unlikely he replicates the 62-point career year he had in 2023-24, but Matheson is still a steady source of points, shots and blocks from the blue line.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Out Wednesday
Matheson (lower body) will miss Wednesday's game against Columbus.
Matheson was also absent for Montreal's 3-2 overtime loss to Utah on Tuesday. He has a goal and 13 points over 20 appearances in 2024-25. When healthy, Matheson typically serves on the Canadiens' top four and first power-play unit. Lane Hutson is getting increased power-play responsibilities while Matheson is unavailable. Kaiden Guhle, who usually doesn't factor in on the power play, is projected to serve on the second unit Wednesday.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Will be on road trip
Matheson (lower body) is expected to travel with the Canadiens to Columbus ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Blue Jackets, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
Matheson was a late scratch Tuesday, but his presence on the upcoming three-game road trip is a sign his injury isn't too significant. The 30-year-old blueliner has 13 points, 29 shots on net and 48 blocked shots over 20 appearances this season. He'll resume a top-four role with power-play time once he returns to the lineup.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Helps out in win
Matheson recorded an assist, one shot on net and one block with a plus-3 rating in Monday's 3-0 win over the Oilers.
Matheson's harmless-looking shot from the boards was redirected by Brendan Gallagher to give Montreal a 1-0 lead with 29 seconds remaining in the second period. It was the third time in the last four outings that Matheson has made the scoresheet. He's tied for the team lead with 12 assists. Repeating last season's career-high 62 points may be too much to expect, but the blueliner is on pace to reach 50.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Two-point effort Saturday
Matheson scored his first goal of the season on the power play and added an even-strength assist in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Blue Jackets.
The veteran blueliner opened the scoring early in the first period by blasting a one-timer past Daniil Tarasov from the high slot, then helped set up Josh Anderson for the game's final tally late in the third. It's Matheson's first multi-point performance since Oct. 26, and on the season he's accumulated 12 points in 18 contests with 47 blocked shots -- fourth in the NHL behind Chris Tanev, Rasmus Andersson and Brandon Carlo.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Adds power-play helper
Matheson logged a power-play assist and three blocked shots in Monday's 7-5 win over the Sabres.
Matheson snapped a five-game slump by helping out on Cole Caufield's game-winning tally in the third period. The 30-year-old Matheson was hot before that dry spell, so he should be able to get his offense back on track. The blueliner is looking for his first goal of the year, but he has 10 assists (six on the power play), 24 shots on net, 27 PIM, 45 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating over 16 appearances in a top-pairing role.
