I didn't think Buss stood out this year, hopefully things work out with the new players

Buss was almost a point a game player this season but I didn't really notice him much this season. I thought he played his best game of the season Wednesday in West Kelowna but I was expecting to see him stand out, score more goals and generate more offence this season. I wonder what Vipers fans can expect in Luke Bibby? Bibby has a little more size and had six points in ten games with the Clippers this season.

When the vipers got Dorey, a 20 year old from the WHL, they had to reduce the number of 20 year olds on the team. Buss was the one they decided to move. Teams can have a maximum of 6 players with 2003 birthdays. Bibby is 19.
