Matheson fired four shots on goal in 12:46 of ice time in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

After starting the season in the top four, Matheson has been moved down to the bottom pairing. That has impacted Matheson's ice time, knocking him down to below 14 minutes on average over the last three games. The 25-year-old has not had a great season, recording only two points with a minus-11 rating in 22 games.

EDGE Analysis

Bumped down to the third pairing, Matheson saw a season-low 14:15 in ice time, but still managed to pick up his second assist of the season. The 25-year-old has had a rough start, with only two points through 16 games while sporting a minus-8 rating.

Matheson (undisclosed) will return to the lineup against Washington on Thursday, per George Richards of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Matheson missed the last five games due to his undisclosed issue. The blueliner has just one point in nine games this season, but should still be capable of topping the 25-point mark for a third straight year. As a depth scoring option, the 25-year-old probably isn't worth a lineup spot in season-long formats, but could be a sneaky value play depending on matchup in daily contests.

Coach Joel Quenneville said Matheson (undisclosed) has a "good chance" to play Thursday against the Capitals, David Dwork of WPLG Local 10 News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Panthers initially pegged Matheson with a 10-14 day recovery Oct. 24, and Thursday marks exactly 14 days since that report. Matheson will still need to get through the next couple days of practice without a relapse, but it appears he's on track to gear up against the Metropolitan Division leaders.

Matheson (undisclosed) is expected to be sidelined for 10-14 days, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matheson was hurt in Tuesday's game against Pittsburgh, George Richards of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matheson played just 15:16 of ice time prior to leaving the game. With Aaron Ekblad's (illness) status still up in the air, the club recalled Riley Stillman in order to bolster its depth on the blue line. Barring a long-term absence, Matheson should be capable of topping the 25-point mark for a third consecutive season, giving him decent mid-range fantasy value.

Matheson picked up his first point of the season in a 6-3 win over New Jersey on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The assist came on the power play, giving Matheson only his second point on the man advantage since Dec. 6, 2018. He averaged only 48 seconds on the power play last season, so don't expect him to suddenly start racking up the points.

Matheson threw two hits and blocked two shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

Blocking shots are Matheson's specialty -- he led the team last season with 132 -- but hits are pretty rare for the 25-year-old. He only had 63 hits in total last season, good for 14th on his own team.
