Oh no Shea Busch is gone, damn I really like him

Now I know why Brooks Christensen has been at the last couple games. For Shea Bush he goes from a potentially last place playoff team to a first place team in the WILL

This is a big blow and huge loss to a Vipers team that has struggled offensively this season. Busch lead the Snakes in goals with twelve. Busch was one of the more skilled Vipers and lead the team in goals and second in points.

I can't get over the amount of turnover/roster moves this season. With the new NCAA rule changes recently it looks like players coming and going could be the new normal.

I totally disagree with you VDF, sure teams are going to lose a player here and there because their advisor is going to tell them there are greener pastures to play in, but you don't see the winning organizations losing players or player turnover like the Vipers. This team has been in total disarray since the Glenn's took over so honestly I don't see things getting better anytime soon.

I can't blame Busch at all for going to Everett. He's going to a first place team. And they're a first place team by a lot. They're loading up for a run to the Memorial Cup, it looks like. Busch will be getting a lot of exposure and he's only 17 years old so NHL scouts will get a good look. He's a goal scorer and he'll be playing with guys who can get him the puck. He should thrive in Everett.

Players have more choices for there future which is not a bad thing. Its the way it should be if you put your feet in there shoes. At the end of the day it is cheap entertainment and a nice time spent with family and friends. Go vipers go
