Buium Among GR’s Best Defensemen Over Past Month (+)

Defenseman Shai Buium’s first full season with the Grand Rapids Griffins has been about him figuring out how to ace the AHL course in risk management.
The San Diego native showed up with offensive ability, and he’s learning when to mount a charge with his skill and when not to take a chance.
“He makes plays, and he’s really sharp at that,” Grand Rapids coach Dan Watson said. “He sees the ice extremely well. He’s a guy that does take risk in this game. And so, obviously we have to monitor that, making sure it’s the right plays. He’s managing the pucks well.”
