| April 17, 2025 | Mateychuk will be reassigned to AHL Cleveland following Thursday's 6-1 win over the Islanders, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports. - This spring's playoff run is likely to be Mateychuk's last taste of AHL action. The 20-year-old defenseman played every NHL game between Jan. 25 and the end of the season. He totaled 13 points in 45 outings as a rookie. While there's still room for him to grow, he's one of the top defensive prospects in the league, and he'll likely be in a top-four role with the Blue Jackets in 2025-26. | None |
| April 13, 2025 | Mateychuk notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Capitals. - Mateychuk has remained steady with a goal and six helpers over his last 11 outings. He's been a little sheltered but is still playing in a top-four role during a playoff push, showing the trust the Blue Jackets have in him at just 20 years old. He's now at 13 points, 41 shots on net, 60 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating across 42 appearances this season. | None |
| March 29, 2025 | Mateychuk scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and blocked three shots in Friday's 7-6 shootout win over the Canucks. - This was the second multi-point effort of Mateychuk's young career. He has a modest five points over 12 outings in March while continuing to maintain a regular spot in the Blue Jackets' bottom four with occasional power-play usage. Overall, he's at nine points, 33 shots on net, 49 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 34 contests. | None |
| March 21, 2025 | Mateychuk notched an assist and went minus-2 in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins. - Mateychuk has been limited to two helpers over his last nine outings since his March 1 goal versus the Red Wings in the Stadium Series game. The 20-year-old blueliner will have some ups and downs early in his career as he adjusts to the NHL, but this was just his second game in March with a minus rating, so he's done well defensively. Overall, he's collected seven points, 29 shots on net, 45 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 32 appearances in 2024-25. | None |
| March 12, 2025 | Mateychuk notched an assist and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Devils. - Mateychuk has two points over five games in March. The 20-year-old blueliner is seeing top-four minutes at even strength as well as time on the second power-play unit. Mateychuk is at six points, 24 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating across 27 appearances. He's not quite doing enough yet to be considered in redraft formats, but the 12th overall pick from 2022 has a bright future ahead. | None |
| March 7, 2025 | Mateychuk was sent to AHL Cleveland on Friday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports. - Mateychuk will almost certainly be called back up by the Blue Jackets shortly after Friday's trade deadline, but the transaction will make him eligible for the AHL playoffs. The 20-year-old has made 25 appearances in the NHL this year, logging three goals, two assists, 39 blocked shots, 12 hits and 12 PIM while averaging 18:16 of ice time. | None |
| March 2, 2025 | Mateychuk scored a goal in Saturday's 5-3 Stadium Series win over the Red Wings. - Mateychuk's third NHL goal will be a memorable one, as he opened the scoring at 5:31 of the second period outdoors at Ohio Stadium. The 20-year-old blueliner is up to five points, 23 shots on net, 39 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 23 appearances. Mateychuk has handled a top-four role lately, and with two goals over four contests since the 4 Nations Face-Off break, he appears to be settling in at the NHL level. | None |
| Feb. 23, 2025 | Mateychuk scored an unassisted goal and took four shots on net in Saturday's 5-1 win against Chicago. - Mateychuk's tally came in the second period and was his first point since his return from illness in late January. Overall, the 20-year-old defenseman is up to two goals, two assists, 21 shots on net and 33 blocks in 20 career appearances. Saturday's contest was Mateychuk's career high in ice time with 21:32. He is in a second-line role alongside Ivan Provorov and receives occasional power-play time on the second unit. His situation in Columbus provides him an opportunity to become relevant in fantasy if he can string together more points. | None |
| Jan. 25, 2025 | Mateychuk (illness) will return to the lineup versus the Kings on Saturday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports. - The highly-regarded defenseman missed the last three games with the illness. Mateychuk has one goal, two assists and 21 blocked shots in 12 games this season. He will play alongside Ivan Provorov on the second pairing. | None |
| Jan. 23, 2025 | Mateychuk (illness) won't play Thursday versus Carolina. - Mateychuk is set to miss his third straight game. He has a goal and three points in 12 appearances in 2024-25. His next chance to return to the lineup will come Saturday against Los Angeles. | None |
| Jan. 22, 2025 | Mateychuk (illness) isn't available for Wednesday's clash against Toronto, per Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site. - Mateychuk also missed Monday's 3-1 loss to the Islanders due to the illness. He has a goal and three points in 12 appearances in 2024-25. When Mateychuk is healthy, he might serve in a bottom-four capacity and see some time on the power play. | None |
| Jan. 20, 2025 | Mateychuk will miss Monday's game against the Islanders due to an illness, according to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic. - Mateychuk will miss his first game with the Blue Jackets since being recalled from AHL Cleveland on Dec. 22. Jack Johnson will enter the lineup as a result of the 20-year-old's absence. | None |
| Jan. 9, 2025 | Mateychuk had a goal and an assist in a 6-2 win over the Kraken on Thursday. - It's his first NHL goal and first multi-point NHL game, and he also blocked six shots, another career mark. Mateychuk is part of Columbus' youth movement, and his upside is high. He had 25 points (nine goals, 16 assists) in 27 AHL games prior to his call-up. | None |
| Jan. 1, 2025 | Mateychuk registered an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Hurricanes. - Mateychuk has played in four straight contests, and it looks like the Blue Jackets will give him a chance to prove himself as long as they're running seven-defensemen lineups. Mateychuk could even get a chance to solidify a spot beyond that -- Jake Christiansen saw just four shifts in Tuesday's game. The helper was Mateychuk's first NHL point, and he's added five hits and three blocked shots while featuring on the second power-play unit. | None |
| Dec. 27, 2024 | The Blue Jackets recalled Mateychuk from AHL Cleveland on Friday. - Mateychuk is a highly-regarded prospect, as he was selected 12th overall in 2022. The defenseman made his NHL debut Monday and saw 18:36 of ice time, including 1:06 on the second power play. Look for Mateychuk to remain at the NHL level as he has conquered the AHL, tallying nine goals and 25 points in 27 games with the Monsters. | None |
| Dec. 23, 2024 | Mateychuk was loaned to AHL Cleveland on Monday. - Mateychuk made his NHL debut in Monday's 5-4 win over Montreal, logging one hit in 18:36 of ice time. The left-shot blueliner will link back up with the Monsters -- he's generated nine goals and 25 points through 27 AHL contests in 2024-25. | None |
| Dec. 22, 2024 | Mateychuk was recalled from AHL Cleveland on Sunday. - Mateychuk was sent to the minors ahead of the regular season, but he'll rejoin the NHL club just before the league's Christmas break. The 20-year-old defenseman hasn't yet made his NHL debut, and it's unclear whether he'll enter the Blue Jackets' lineup during his time with the club. | None |
| Oct. 6, 2024 | Mateychuk was loaned to AHL Cleveland on Sunday. - Mateychuk registered three assists in four playoff contests with Columbus' top minor-league affiliate in 2023-24. He should see plenty of ice time in the AHL this campaign and could make his NHL debut at some point in 2024-25. | None |
| June 3, 2024 | Mateychuk will link up with AHL Cleveland on Monday. - Mateychuk could make his professional debut in Tuesday's Game 3 Calder Cup clash with AHL Hershey, boosting the team's blue-line depth. With junior club WHL Moose Jaw, the 19-year-old Winnipeg native generated 17 goals and 58 assists in 52 regular-season outings before adding another 30 points in 20 postseason contests. Heading into the 2024-25 campaign, Mateychuk should at least have a chance to break into the 23-man roster for Opening Night. | None |
| Sept. 20, 2023 | Mateychuk led the Traverse City Prospect Tournament with seven assists in only two games, including five on the power play, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports. - The 19-year-old blueliner was the 12th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft and spent last season with WHL Moose Jaw, piling up eight goals and 65 points in 63 games. Mateychuk still has a year of junior eligibility remaining and will likely head back to Moose Jaw, especially after the Blue Jackets bolstered their blue line this offseason with veterans Damon Severson and Ivan Provorov, but he could be pushing for a spot on the Columbus power play within the next couple years. | None |
| July 13, 2022 | Mateychuk signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Blue Jackets on Wednesday. - Columbus selected Mateychuk with the 12th overall pick in this year's Entry Draft. The 18-year-old defender spent the 2021-22 season with the WHL's Moose Jaw Warriors, racking up 13 goals and 64 points through 65 games. He'll likely remain with the Moose Jaw Warriors for the 2022-23 campaign. | None |
