| HISTORY |
Matt was the Sharks
4th round pick in the 1996 NHL Entry Draft after posting solid numbers in
juniors at Kingston (OHL), where he was selected to the OHL All Star Game in
1998. He opened eyes during training camp with his willingness to throw his
body at people. Will drop the gloves if need be. He must pay attention to
details if he wants to stay on the NHL roster, because the Sharks are loaded
with youth. If Dean Lombardi needs to bring in a vet at crunch time, Bradley or
Mark Smith will be the first to lose ice time.

| SCOUTING
REPORT |
Matt is a solid
forward who has excelled on the defensive side of his game, which should suit
head coach Darryl Sutter just fine. Not a big goal scorer, but he'll make up
for it with his defense.
