The worst is confirmed for Mike Matheson

Despite an impressive 2023-2024 season, where he finished as the 9th highest-scoring defenseman with 62 points in 82 games, Matheson did not convince the 2,896 voters.

The ranking has sparked reactions, especially because players like Brady Skjei, Matt Roy, and Sean Durzi are ranked much higher, while names like Rasmus Sandin and Simon Nemec, who have less to prove in the NHL, are also ahead of him.

This evaluation raises questions about the recognition of Canadiens players within the league.

There is hope that other NHL general managers have a more favorable opinion of Matheson, and the debate remains open as to whether he deserves a better spot in this ranking.
