[PAYWALL] Canucks prospect Hunter Brzustewicz, once viewed as a ‘special’ talent, is back



Nice little article on Brzustwicz. Time will tell but he definitely has high upside for a third round pick. I look forward to following his development.

I don’t think this article is paywalled. I had access without a subscription but not sure if that is a glitch.

    I think he fell to us because all the other teams were nervous about attempting to pronounce his last name in front of a stadium full of people

    I’m high on this player. I don’t really see why he fell to us, anyone have more insight? He’s not small, he’s a RHD, lead all draft elegible dmen in OHL scoring, no obvious flaws in his game

    It’s a good article and it seems like it was a good gamble which is all you are trying to do after the first 50 or so players anyway. I’m not ready to put any expectations on this guy and still think our prospect pool is bottom 10 in the league but seems like a good kid.

    He’s going to be a really good defenceman. I think our saving grace was his shoulder injury and that lost development time. He already pushed hard in his rehab to come back in as good shape as he could, and he did by all accounts, he didn’t look out of place in his Kitchener season and became pretty much their top defender by the end of the year.
