I agree, lots of people seem to be expecting the moon from Dube as a rookie. Like someone said before, if we didn't already have Valimaki and Andersson, I probably would have went with Kylington at #2 but something about having those two already lowers my excitement about him a bit.

But those AHL numbers for Dube in his first pro season definitely have me excited about what he could one day do in the NHL I think he is going to be a great player for us, and I think we see him take off in the NHL this year after a decent but slow start. (much like Mangiapane last year)
