Mike Matheson scored the game-winning goal in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime victory against the Flames. Matheson took a pass from Ivan Demidov and found the back of the net one minute into the extra frame. The defenseman finished the contest with three shots on goal, three blocked shots, and two PIM. The goal snapped a brief multi-game point drought for Matheson.
Fantasy Impact:
Matheson now has five points (2G, 3A) through eight games this season, along with solid contributions in peripheral categories like hits (11) and blocked shots (18). While Lane Hutson and Noah Dobson are expected to carry the primary offensive load from the blue line, Matheson continues to prove he is a capable contributor. He remains on pace for another 30-plus point season, making him a reliable defenseman in deeper fantasy formats.
