Matthew Tkachuk Set for Season Debut Monday

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) will make his season debut on Monday night against the San Jose Sharks. The star forward has been cleared to play after recovering from offseason surgery. Florida will ease Tkachuk back into action on the third line. He will skate with Mackie Samoskevich and Evan Rodrigues. Tkachuk will also join the top power-play unit. While Tkachuk could be rusty in his first few games back, he has enough talent to make an immediate impact. On Monday night, Tkachuk and the Panthers go up against the NHL's third-weakest defense.

Matthew Tkachuk "Close" to Season Debut

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) could be available for his season debut next week. "He's close," Panthers head coach Paul Maurice said before Saturday's win over the Washington Capitals. "He's getting pushed hard on the ice. He's coming back. The recovery has been good. He hasn't felt at a hundred percent, but the last two days he pushed hard, came back, felt good. So, I don't think he's very far away now." Florida also hopes to see Brad Marchand (undisclosed) return soon. The veteran has been out for five games. "Neither one of those guys should be out very much longer," Maurice added. The Panthers return to action on Monday against the San Jose Sharks.

Matthew Tkachuk Joins Panthers for Road Trip

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) appears ready to return to the lineup soon, as he will travel with the team during an upcoming six-game road trip. Tkachuk, who had offseason surgery to repair a torn adductor and sports hernia, rejoined practice last week. Florida begins its trip in Toronto on Tuesday. Despite being without Tkachuk and Aleksander Barkov (knee), the Panthers beat the league-leading Colorado Avalanche 2-1 on Sunday to improve to 22-16-3. The team is only a point off a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. Tkachuk's return will be a massive boost for three parties: the Panthers, fantasy managers, and Team USA, which has named him to the Olympic roster.

Matthew Tkachuk Returns to Practice

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) practiced with the team for the first time this season on Sunday. The star forward skated in a non-contact jersey. This is a significant step in his recovery from offseason surgery to repair a torn adductor muscle and sports hernia. While Tkachuk appears to be nearing his season debut, it's unclear if he will be available for next week's Winter Classic against the New York Rangers on Friday. "There's a whole bunch of things he's got to get through. The question is, is there enough time," Panthers coach Paul Maurice said. "As much as we like the spectacle of it and we'd love for him to be a part of it -- it would be great for the game to see him out there -- the Florida Panthers need him healthy for the rest of the year." A healthy Tkachuk will be a great asset for the Panthers and fantasy managers alike.

Matthew Tkachuk's Status Uncertain for Winter Classic

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) is nearing his season debut, but he may not be ready at the start of 2026. "I don't know," Panthers general manager Bill Zito said Wednesday when asked whether Tkachuk would be available for this season's Winter Classic on Jan. 2 against the New York Rangers. Before the season started, Zito said Tkachuk was expected to be out until "December-ish." Tkachuk's return would be huge for a Panthers team that has lost Aleksander Barkov (knee) for the season and has taken several injury blows throughout the campaign. The back-to-back champions are currently just outside the playoff spots in the Eastern Conference.

Matthew Tkachuk Resumes Skating

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) has resumed skating but is still without a set timeline for his return. Tkachuk provided the update on the "Wingmen" podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Brady Tkachuk (thumb) of the Ottawa Senators. Before the start of the season, Panthers general manager Bill Zito announced that Tkachuk will be out until "December-ish." Despite being without Tkachuk and Aleksander Barkov (knee), the Panthers have remained competitive, averaging over 3 goals per game (3.09). Veteran Brad Marchand is playing out of his skin and is currently on track to record his second career 90-point season.

Matthew Tkachuk Expected to Be Out Until December

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) will be sidelined until December, general manager Bill Zito said Wednesday. The star forward battled several injuries last season and had surgery in August. Initial reports suggested that Tkachuk will be out until 2026. Despite battling injuries, Tkachuk was still a point-per-game player last season, notching 57 points (22 goals, 35 assists) in 55 regular-season appearances and contributing 23 points (eight goals, 15 assists) in as many games during his team's run to a second consecutive Stanley Cup win. In Tkachuk's absence, Brad Marchand might begin the season as part of the top-six group.

Matthew Tkachuk Recovering From Surgery

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) has reportedly undergone surgery. David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period reports that Tkachuk had the procedure "a few weeks ago" and will miss the start of the season. Tkachuk isn't expected to begin the 2025-26 campaign before January. Only recently, Tkachuk mentioned that he was "50-50" on whether he would have surgery to repair a torn hip abductor and a hernia. With Tkachuk sidelined, Brad Marchand could become a regular in the top six for Florida, although he was extremely effective alongside Eetu Luostarinen and Anton Lundell on the third line in last season's playoffs.

Matthew Tkachuk Could Miss 2-3 Months with Surgery

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk (groin) revealed he would face a multi-month absence if he opts for surgery. The star forward played the Stanley Cup playoffs with a torn adductor muscle and a sports hernia injury. "If I do get the surgery, it'll definitely be the first two or maybe three months if that's the case. But it's still undecided at this point," Tkachuk told ESPN's Greg Wyshynski. It was recently reported that Tkachuk is expected to miss the start of the season and may not be back until the Olympics. Despite his health issues, Tkachuk had 23 points (eight goals, 15 assists) in as many games in the postseason. He was also very productive during the 2024-25 regular season but was limited to 52 games after getting injured while playing for Team USA in the 4 Nations Face-Off in February.

Matthew Tkachuk Expected to Miss Start of Season

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk is expected to miss the start of the new NHL season. "I think we're going to find out at some point here that Tkachuk will miss the start of the season," NHL insider Elliotte Friedman said on the latest episode of the 32 Thoughts podcast. "I think he'll be back in time for the Olympics... But I think he's going to miss the start of the year and a chunk of time after that." Tkachuk dealt with various health issues last term and apparently isn't at 100 percent for the start of 2025-26 either. Based on the available information, it's safe to assume Florida will be without Tkachuk for several months, which would boost Brad Marchand's fantasy stock.

Matthew Tkachuk Reveals Multiple Injuries

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk revealed on Tuesday that he played through multiple injuries to help the team try to lift the Stanley Cup for the second consecutive year. "I tore my adductor off the bone and had some hernia thing all on the same side," Tkachuk said when asked about his injuries. "I wanted to throw in the towel a bunch of times." Despite being badly banged up, Tkachuk enjoyed another prolific postseason run with the Panthers, sharing the team lead in scoring with 23 points. He recorded eight goals and 13 assists. This gives Tkachuk a staggering 69 points (25 goals, 44 assists) over the last three years in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Matthew Tkachuk Notches Three Points in Losing Effort

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk tallied two goals and an assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Edmonton Oilers in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals. He scored both goals on the power play in the first period, leading the charge as Florida jumped to a 3-0 lead. Tkachuk, who had managed only two points over the first three matchups against Edmonton, capped off his three-point night with an assist in the third period when Sam Reinhart tied the game with only 20 seconds remaining in regulation. Florida has had nine players score 15 or more points this postseason, with Tkachuk leading the group with 21 points, along with Sam Bennett. He has recorded seven goals and a team-high 14 assists.

Matthew Tkachuk Collects Two Points in Wednesday's Win

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk finished Wednesday's series-clinching 5-3 victory against the Carolina Hurricanes with a goal and an assist. Tkachuk's work allowed the Panthers to spark a comeback from a 2-0 deficit in the second period. He scored a power-play goal by redirecting a shot from Aaron Ekblad and helped Evan Rodrigues score his first postseason goal just 30 seconds later. At times, Tkachuk has been quiet during the postseason, but he will take significant momentum into the Stanley Cup Finals, having logged three multi-point efforts over his past four outings. Overall, he has scored 16 points (five goals, 11 assists) in 17 games, tying him for the second most on the team in the playoffs.

Matthew Tkachuk Ends 10-Game Goal Drought in Thursday's Win

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk scored the team's second goal in Thursday's 5-0 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes, ending a 10-game goal drought. The star forward began the postseason by netting three goals in three games but hadn't scored since then. Despite his rotten luck in front of the goal, Tkachuk has remained among Florida's top scorers, sitting on 12 points (four goals, eight assists) through 14 games. Seven of his points have come on the power play, and Tkachuk looks set up for further success in the Eastern Conference Finals, as Carolina's penalty kill has suddenly faltered, allowing four power-play goals over the first two games of the series.

Matthew Tkachuk Sees Point Streak End Friday

Florida Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk was kept off the score sheet for the first time in four games on Friday night in a 2-0 defeat against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The star forward had registered assists in three consecutive contests but was quiet in Game 6 of the second-round series, finishing with three shots on goal, five hits, two penalty minutes, and a minus-one rating, while logging 20:45 of ice time. Tkachuk has gone eight games without a goal in the postseason but is close to averaging a point per game, sitting on three goals and six assists through 11 outings. Strangely, he has recorded more hits (20) than shots on goal (17) in the playoffs.

He wrote his name in the history books alongside Nate Schmidt when the two scored within 14 seconds in the second period, marking the fastest two goals in a playoff game in franchise history. Tkachuk now boasts a whopping 49 points (19 goals, 30 assists) in 45 games over the past two postseasons, the fourth-highest total in the league.
