I don't think those numbers are bad at all. It's also worth pointing out that his PPG climbed from 1.057 to 1.36 after getting away from his Sarnia coaches. By all accounts he "figured it out" in Sudbury and was a force the entire time he was there.

For reference Dube put up 1.58 PPG in major junior in his draft +2 year and he is our best forward prospect.

He isn't a perfect prospect, but his skill set is definitely intriguing, especially for a 4th round pick. If our AHL coaches can refine his game and continue to get that consistency out of him that he showed in in Sudbury he will be an NHL player.
