Ashenden 0 Report post Posted November 1, 2007 From TSN's Backchecking column: Shawn Matthias, C, Belleville Bulls - The 19 year-old was a second-round pick of the Red Wings in 2006 and was traded to Florida in the Todd Bertuzzi deal last spring. Now the 6-foot-3 power forward prospect is second in the OHL in scoring with 32 points in 14 games. Man. 2.3 points per game.

Too bad he didn't end up signing with the Wings. I know OHL success doesn't mean NHL success, and he may end up flopping, but it does suck that he's tearing it up after watching Bert sit out a bunch of games.
