Rihards Bukarts Transfers to Brandon

[BWK Fan 97]

Wasn't sure if he would come, but it is relief that he signed his transfer card. He is going to be the go to guy in Brandon next year, as he brings lots of skill and flash, something that the Wheaties lacked greatly last year. Looks like a good pick by McCrimmon.

I`m glad that he decided on WHL path,because Dinamo Rīga coaches are way too scared of giving young guys a shot and another year in MHL would just kill his draft stock,so good move.

Bukarts is going to excel in Brandon.

I hope so, are offence was really bad last year, and this guy sounds like he could be the real deal. If they get two strong seasons out of him, I bet they'd be really happy.
