Matthew Andonovski
Position(s): Defence Realistic Potential Rating (1-10): 3.5D Draft Year: 2023

Fantasy Summary

Big, physical defenseman with the upside of becoming a bottom-pairing defenseman in the NHL. Limited offensively but could prove valuable in multi-cat leagues where hits and PIMs are a factor.

Observations

February 2025 – The captain of the Kitchener Rangers is a big, physical, and mean defenseman who leads the OHL in penalty minutes. The knock on Andonovski is his willingness to take unnecessary penalties, which is a regular occurrence. The Markham, Ontario native is often tasked with getting in the face of the opposing team’s top lines. His fantasy value will be in banger leagues where hits, PIM, and blocks are a factor. Andonovski has four goals and 11 assists in 55 games for the Kitchener Rangers so far this season. Andrew Barrett
