In part five of my draft review I will look at the Flyers third round selection center Jonathan Matsumoto. The 19 year old Matsumoto was selected with the 79th pick in the draft and fifth overall. The Canadian weighs in at 6′0″ and 184 lbs. He played last season for Bowling Green University in the Central Collegiate Hockey Association posting 20 goals and 28 assists for 48 points over 36 games. Three years ago Matsumoto became the first player in Bowling Green history to lead the team in scoring as a freshman. This season he finished second on the team and eighth in the country in points. He was ranked 117th among North American prospects by Central Scouting final report.
