Date News Advice
Nov. 14, 2025 Mateychuk scored a goal and blocked three shots in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Oilers. - Mateychuk fired back after the Oilers tied the game at 2-2 in the middle of the second period, answering a Leon Draisaitl goal just 30 seconds later. Mateychuk has four points over his last six games and has looked decent in a top-four role for the bulk of this season. He's at four goals, seven points, 17 shots on net, 13 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 16 appearances. He won't score goals at this pace all year, but he should have no trouble surpassing his 13-point output from 45 games as a rookie last year. None
Nov. 8, 2025 Mateychuk (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Saturday's clash in Vancouver, per Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site. - Mateychuk missed Wednesday's 5-1 loss to Calgary because of the injury. He has three goals and five points in 12 appearances with the Blue Jackets in 2025-26. If Mateychuk is able to return Saturday, then Dysin Mayo will probably be a healthy scratch. None
Nov. 5, 2025 Mateychuk (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against the Flames on Wednesday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports. - While Mateychuk won't be in action Wednesday, he is traveling with the team and could still be an option for Saturday's clash with the Canucks. In his stead, Dysin Mayo will make his Columbus debut against the Flames. After a slow start to the year, the 21-year-old Mateychuk appears to have found his game, registering three goals, one assist and 10 shots in his last seven outings. None
Nov. 4, 2025 Mateychuk (undisclosed) didn't practice Tuesday and is questionable to face the Flames on Wednesday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports. - Mateychuk scored in Sunday's clash with the Islanders but logged a mere 13:01 of ice time due to his undisclosed injury. With Erik Gudbranson (hip) still on the shelf, the Jackets will have to give Dysin Mayo his season debut if Mateychuk is unable to play. None
Nov. 2, 2025 Head coach Dean Evason said after Sunday's loss to the Islanders that Mateychuk is banged up, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports. - While the exact nature and severity of Mateychuk's injury aren't yet clear, he saw a season-low 13:01 of ice time in the loss. The 21-year-old hasn't yet missed any games this year, and it's not yet clear whether his ailment will impact his availability for Wednesday's game against Calgary. None
Oct. 24, 2025 Mateychuk scored a goal and added two hits in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals. - Mateychuk has scored in back-to-back games. He appears to be growing more comfortable in a top-four role, which bodes well for his continued contributions on offense. The blueliner has three points, nine shots on net, five hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over seven appearances to begin the season. Mateychuk has plenty of upside, so the 21-year-old should be on the radar in fantasy, especially if he eventually lands on a power-play unit. None
Oct. 21, 2025 Mateychuk scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Stars. - Mateychuk's offense hasn't popped yet in 2025-26, but he has been on the top pairing in the last two games, replacing Dante Fabbro, who was moved down the lineup. The 21-year-old Mateychuk has two points, eight shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through six appearances. Fantasy managers should at least keep an eye on the Manitoba native, as he has significant scoring potential, though the lack of a power-play role could limit his output. None
Sept. 29, 2025 Mateychuk (groin) will play in Tuesday's exhibition matchup versus Washington, per Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers. - Mateychuk will make his preseason debut after being hampered by a groin injury during training camp. He registered four goals, 13 points, 44 shots on net, 63 blocked shots and 26 hits across 45 regular-season games in 2024-25. None
Sept. 26, 2025 Mateychuk (groin) won't play in Saturday's preseason game versus Pittsburgh, the Blue Jackets announced Friday. - Mateychuk's next chance to get into a preseason game will come Tuesday versus Washington. He had four goals, 13 points, 20 PIM, 26 hits and 63 blocks across 45 appearances with Columbus last year. None
Sept. 24, 2025 Mateychuk (groin) will miss Wednesday's preseason clash with Pittsburgh, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports. - Mateychuk is poised to make the Jackets' roster out of training camp, but will need to get back to 100 percent before Opening Night to avoid splitting his time this year between the AHL and NHL. When he was up with Columbus last year, the 21-year-old blueliner registered four goals, nine helpers and 44 shots while averaging 18:02 of ice time in 45 contests. None
Sept. 15, 2025 Mateychuk will be limited at the start of training camp due to a groin injury, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports Monday. - Mateychuk saw action in 45 regular-season games for the Blue Jackets as a rookie last year in which he recorded four goals, nine helpers and 26 hits while averaging 18:02 of ice time. If the 21-year-old blueliner can overcome his injury before Opening Night against the Predators on Oct. 9, he should be a near lock to top the 20-point threshold this year and could even land in the 25-30 point range. None
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
