Round Five, 140th overall – Matthew Andonovski, D
Andonovski has played the past two seasons in the OHL with the Kitchener Rangers. He has yet to score a goal in 110 regular season games, so offense is not his forte. Last season he had 16 assists in 67 games with 85 penalty minutes. He has a bit of size and bite to his game and protects the front of the net well. The Senators hope he can continue to develop as a defense-first defender.
He was on the third-pairing for much of last season but did see time on the second-pairing in the playoffs. Next year should see him back in the OHL with Kitchener in an elevated role in the top four.
