Florida Panthers: Is Defenseman Mike Matheson Untradeable?
Does Mike Matheson’s horrid 2018-19 season make him expendable or would the Florida Panthers be jumping the gun if they were to trade him so soon?
After an utterly poor display this past season, many have questioned whether the Florida Panthers should consider trading defenseman Mike Matheson.
Taking part in 75 games this past season, Matheson recorded an underwhelming tally of 8G, 19A, for 27 points. His season largely consisted of poor defensive showings, with sprinkles of undisciplined play.
His year got off to a rugged start when he threw Canucks forward Elias Pettersson down to the ice in a 3-2 loss after Pettersson humiliated him along the boards a few moments earlier.
