Matheson Quietly Drives Montréal's Chances in St. Louis
The Canadiens defenceman keeps creating looks from the back end while his team's shot count stays modest against the Blues.
By MA Insights
Mike Matheson was the Canadiens' most dangerous skater, and the box score hides it. He has 1 goal and 3 assists through 8 games, with 14 shots.
His individual expected goals -- how many his own chances were worth -- sit at 1.63, well above his one goal. He keeps creating chances that come close to going in, and the finish has lagged behind.
