The decision has come down, and the Florida Panthers will be without Michael Matheson for the next few days. His defense of the situation included stating that Pettersson’s “lightness” surprised him, per agent Kent Hughes, but nevertheless the dangerous act of throwing him down is still worthy of a suspension. Edmonton still may be holding out hope that Lucic can turn it around and be just as much of a scoring threat as he is a physical threat, but make no mistake that the team would be quick to get rid of his contract if the right deal came along. The two became engaged in the summer of 2018[16] and married on July 20, 2019. As the accompanying video explains: This is not a hockey play. Since it is a phone hearing and not an in-person one, any possible suspension will five games or fewer. Florida is a tough one. Take this scenario: Player A scored 35 points in 75 games last season. @NHL @NHLNetwork .. NHL Network Insider Kevin Weekes, who incidentally interviewed for the Florida GM job before the Panthers hired Bill Zito, first reported the news.

The veteran forward was intended to find chemistry with Tavares when he was signed to a seven-year, $38.5MM contract two years ago. It has been a week since Vancouver Canucks rookie forward Elias Pettersson was thrown to the ice by Florida Panthers defenseman Michael Matheson. Perhaps the most notable move could have been, The Detroit Red Wings are hardly buyers in the trade market, but they will be looking to add in the off-season. The easy answer is that the Devils don’t feel any pressure to trade anyone on the roster.

With a cap-strapped roster full of expensive contracts for older players, L.A. can’t take the risk of keeping Brown around if the right opportunity presents itself.
At his best, he looks disinterested and lucky to be in the right place at the right time and at his worst he costs his team goals. However, some are much worse than others and they are so bad that it is tough to choose between them. However, those two players each signed two-year bridge deals, whereas Theodore was able to land long-term security, as well as eat into unrestricted free agency years, with five extra years at a salary of close to $2MM more. Weber doesn’t seem like the type of player who will retire early, but there is no guarantee that these injuries won’t slow him down significantly for the remainder of his contract. This article is about the ice hockey defenceman. This is the first suspension for Matheson, who does not have a history of dirty play. It has been a rough couple of seasons for Matheson, a player the Panthers once thought so highly of that they gave him an eight-year contract after just one full NHL season. [2] Matheson then left to join the Dubuque Fighting Saints of the United States Hockey League (USHL), where he led all defenceman in scoring in 2011–12. Pettersson, 19, was off to a tremendous start to the season with five goals and nine points in his first five NHL contests.
No other details on the reported trade have been made available. The Florida Panthers reportedly made their first big move of the offseason Wednesday, trading much-maligned defenseman Mike Matheson to Pittsburgh in exchange for veteran forward Patric Hornqvist. From a monetary standpoint, the Panthers would be shelling out more money in the short-term for Hornqvist but make up for it down the road. A trade is far from a certainty, but is a definite possibility now that a list has been officially requested.
Ryan may just need a change of scenery to jump start what used to be dynamic goal-scoring game, but the Senators don’t care about that. Ward, 37, is an impending free agent who has fallen out of favor in the San Jose lineup. Pettersson was injured on the play while Matheson did not even receive a minor penalty for his actions. That’s what the DoPS will determine, and like always will give a video explanation if they do issue a suspension. Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson will be out at least seven to ten days with a concussion according to Bob McKenzie of TSN, after being thrown forcefully to the ice by Florida Panthers defenseman Michael Matheson. What will the Florida Panthers do? The Devils can’t count on Kinkaid to repeat his 2017-18 performance moving forward and if Schneider’s back-to-back bad years are more than a fluke, they can’t depend on him for four more years either. While they both fought injuries this past season, it was Luongo back on top performance-wise, but the impressive numbers he did post came in just 35 appearances versus Reimer’s 44. Florida paying over $4.5MM per year to a backup goalie in his forties just doesn’t make sense and the team would be better off moving forward with just Reimer and Michael Hutchinson if they could find a way to trade Luongo. He has played in 770 NHL games over the past 12 seasons with Nashville and Pittsburgh. However, it would be nearly impossible for Minnesota to ever move the behemoth that is his contract so, if somehow they received an offer, they would take it without a second thought.
