Yesterday, after seeing Mike Matheson practice, line up with his regular duo, and be confirmed in the lineup for the evening game, the organization finally announced, at the last minute, that he would be replaced by Justin Barron.

We only thought it was Martin St-Louis, Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton, who wanted to see more of Barron in action, before making a decision in his case, but no.

Today, Matheson is a surprise absentee on the ice:

Mike Matheson was supposed to play yesterday, but was left out. He is not on the ice today

-Renaud Lavoie

The organization has announced absolutely nothing about him, contrary to their new habits, so the mystery is still there.

Let's just hope he's not injured, the club's defensive brigade really needs him.
