Ok, Pettersson has been added
Also, forgot to post on Friday, but the game between Flint and Sudbury was basically total annihilation. Sudbury killed them 9-2 and I think out shot them 2-1.
Anyway, Busby is a treat to watch even on such a bad showing from his team. He's an excellent skater...lateral movement is good and will get better I believe, good first pass and can skate it up. No glaring weaknesses other than just pure strength as a sub 6' footer.
Great pick. I'd like to see him next year as Flint should be better and he'll have more opportunity to shine. He's already 8 apples in 14 games, so pretty decent numbers so far on a pretty bad team.
I went and pulled some stats from games from Flint and after adding Busby, Flint has averaged 1 goal more per game (basically a 33% increase in production)...and their winning % has increased as a result. He's a nice player and a good draft selection. A solid puck moving RHD who can navigate the PP, he's got good vision and his skating ability is definitely a plus.
Hopefully he can stay healthy enough to be a factor...he certainly has the tools! A lot of scouts according to what I've read had him in the late first round and definitely a 2nd round talent. Great boom or bust pick.
