According the the stats page on the OHL website, Snow is no longer with the team. He has a big x beside his name which means he is "not active with this team".
This teams track record on trades is terrible. They gave up Beljo, a 40 goal scorer who is doing well for London and got a conditional 6th round pick in the 2009 OHL Draft in return. Beljo currently has 14 goals and 24 points, second in team scoring despite only playing 17 games. On the other, when the IceDogs got Snow they gave up a 4th round pick in 2009 and 3rd round pick in 2010. Snow is off the team and back on the trading block having played only a handful of games with the Dogs. It is doubtful the Dogs will get much for Snow now. The moves the team has made has hurt the Dogs this year (no Beljo) and will hurt the Dogs in the coming years as well (giving up draft picks for Snow). What a mess.

No loss giving up Beljo as he would not toe the team line. Team first, self last. This has been said many times. You do not know the history so I guess giving up points, during the reg season, is more important to some fans. The sad thing is if SNOW scored as many points all would be forgiven, even if he was a problem child.

All would be forgiven if they actually started winning some games. At this point, that seems like a lofty goal.

It was confirmed in the Standard today that Snow has been sent home "Mutual consent" and that they are trying the trade him. Good luck with that!

I saw the article and basically Dave Brown admitted to making an error on that deal... saying that he'll make sure he won't get burned again. I'd rather see a person fess up to screwing up rather then saying nothing.
