Islanders Update--it's just a short train ride away
On the blueline, there is almost certainly a job opening in the wake of Mark Streit's departure. In pole position is Matt Donovan.
Scott Mayfield will get his first full pro season after debuting on ATOs at the end of last year. Mayfield should be an entertaining physical force for Sound Tigers fans.

Re: All Things Denver XXXVI

Yes, congrats to Chevy for taking the next step in his career, and for being able to return to Colorado. But I am a little surprised that he didn't advance a little further up the chain. It looks like he did pretty well in the AHL and ECHL, and it seems rather early in his career for him to be joining the Eagles. I thought he'd spend some more time in the AHL. But there is probably more to the situation than meets the eye, so good luck to him with the Eagles.

Personally, I think its Dono's job to lose. After the season he had in Bridgeport last year and Streit going to Philly, there is a huge demand for an offensive minded d-man. This is his big chance and hopefully he grabs the bull by the horns.

Re: All Things Denver XXXVI

You are right about Donovan. This years camp, for him in particular, is like, oh maybe a family of Gazelles gently grazing on the turf of a pride of Lions, with a cackle of famished Hyenas in the distance. He is being watched. Closely.

Chuck Schwartz over on Wisco recruiting thread says Tyler Sheehy is on DU's radar along with WMU and Mankato. He de-committed from OSU when Osiecki was let go.

Do People think DU will be ranked in the pre-season? If so, tell us where. I say #14.

Re: All Things Denver XXXVI

DU's preseason guests, UNB, starts thier preseason this coming Monday night vs. Moncton. I think the Reds will treat thier US weekend as more of a team bonding, "have some fun road trip", rather than trying to put together solid lines and a game plan. Those Canadians usually are a bit bigger too.... and like to hit. Whereas DU should treat the game relatively differently.

I've got some eligibility left. And I'd be proud to wear 32, 34 or 38. 'Course it'd be hard to hold on to the stick and my walker at the same time.

Re: All Things Denver XXXVI

So i tried this question last week and was completely ignored, no answer, no "where have you been Dmann?". no, "gosh we missed you Dmann?" Where's the love for a veteran " All Thing DU " poster???? Anyway, all kidding aside, does anyone have any insight into our new players?, there are so many of them. That combined with our new coach makes for a lot of question marks for this season!!!

"gosh we missed you Dmann?"
Assumed you spent the summer sailing the seas or had too much OJ and vodka to post.
BTW, you should contact Bravo to see if they would like you to be the next Captain on "Below the Decks".

OK, now on to hockey which I assumed, once again, that DU78 would lend his expertise, but....
Here we go anyway.

My top 4
D Will Butcher Played for the USTDP for the last 2 years. Was invited to the Team USA WJC evaluation Camp and did well. 26 GP 3-10-13 +5
F Trevor Moore USHL 62 20-43-63 -20(ouch) Knows how to score but looks like he will need some coaching on the defensive end.
G Evan Cowley NAHL Just turned 18, tallest on the squad at 6'4". GAA 2.90 Sv% 9.00 This year he will back up Sam and get some quality coaching. Has not had goalie coaching until just recently.
F Evan Janssen USHL Played for Coach at Dubuque last year. Knows what is expected by Monty and Coach knows him. 51 10-13-23 +4

International Set
Two of the last skaters signed may be a very pleasant surprise as far as scoring goes.
F Emil Romig NAHL 54 17-37-54 -7
F Matt Marcinew AJHL 38 22-19-41 NA
Imported from Austria and Canada respectively.

D Nick Neville NAHL 60 7-28-35 +5
D Matt VanVoorhis USHL 53 6-19-25 +25
F Brad Hawkinson USHL 51 12-6-18 +2
G Greg Ogard EJHL stats NA

Last, but not least
F Wade Bennett Freshman/Junior or is it Junior/Freshman whose younger, blonder brother (Beau) led him to DU, whose retirement was prematurely reported, and who played Defense in the BCHL and NAHL in 2010-11...and I think played in a couple of exhibition games for the Pioneers between 2011-13
