Matheson has recorded two points, both of which were goals, in his last 24 games.

EDGE Analysis

The pair of snipes actually came back in the same game on Jan. 31 against Ottawa. Of course, Matheson is a young defenseman acclimating to the rigors of life at the NHL level, so there's bound to be peaks and valleys, but his extended cold streak is nonetheless still frustrating. Then again, the 2012 first-rounder never was a huge scorer from the back end in junior or with Boston College, so his 15 points in 58 games in South Florida really aren't all that bad based on his track record (career-high 25 points for BC).
