All he’s done is score four goals with eight apples over the last 14 games while looking very much the part of a No. 1 blueliner. Assuming Matheson can stay healthy (he’s had troubles doing so in recent seasons) the rest of the way, he’s a must-own Fantasy asset. In fact, had he not missed the beginning of the season, he would have likely set a new career high in goals. As a bonus, Matheson is logging crazy minutes lately (over 27 per game this month).

Not surprisingly, the rust showed, but with rumours suggested he’s on the trade block, he could be showcased between now and the deadline. Talbot, 35, is an UFA after the season, so the motivation is certainly there to prove he can still be more than a backup goalie after posting his highest GAA since 2018-19.

Okay, his +/- is dreadful, but there are many ways he can help you, highlighted by a crapload of hits and blocks. Chiarot doesn’t get many offensive zone starts (42.5 per cent), so it’s no surprise his Corsi For percentage is very poor, a disappointment compared to how well he fared for the Panthers down the stretch last season.
