Dennis Busby - The Long Road to Manchester

Dennis Busby is currently enjoying a second season with the Manchester Storm, but he's had quite the journey to get here.

From his beginnings in Barrie, Ontario, to the NHL draft, a year out due to Covid before eventually arriving in Manchester where he has flourished under Cameron Critchlow, Dennis has quite the story to tell.

In this chat, recorded just before the start of the season, Dennis tells us his story including his experience of a current Great Britain star.
