Matt Finn was named to the 3rd All-Star team in the OHL this year. (

His foot speed and mobility kept him off of Team Canada for the WJC on big international ice. It's something he will need to improve on to be successful at the NHL level where skating has become a premium.
Aaron Ekblad was named the OHL best defenseman this year.
Finn however won the 'Captains award"
So he was considered 5th.-6th. best junior defender in the OHL?
That's pretty good.
