Gus is kind of our new defense version of Huselius.

Special teams are huge and the Flames have not been good at it. If Gus and Bort can help in those two areas, it will help this team a lot.

I noticed that the Oilers are 1st in PP and 2nd in PK. Their special teams have won them a lot of games.

I hope Kylington is watching Gus a lot while he sits in the press box. A powerplay specialist should be Kylington's floor. Hoping he can be more, but he needs to at least develop into what Gus is now. He's got all the tools.
