Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check
Looks like Packy Munson will be playing for Michigan Tech after being screwed over by Denver. Probably the best available option for him although Houghton is no Burlington."Through the years, we ever will acclaim........"

Denver may or may not have "enticed" Munson with the idea that he'd be the backup and heir apparent to incumbent Tanner Jaillet on a team that is a perennial national power. What is a fact, however, is that Denver recruited a hotshot goalie prospect (Dayton Rasmussen -- ironically another Minnesota kid) out of the USHL, who was immediately pronounced the backup and (presumably) heir apparent. Munson's name disappeared from the Denver web page at the same time Rasmussen's appeared. In the aftermath, Munson snagged a spot with Michigan Tech, which while not exactly the Paris of the upper Midwest, is at least a whole lot closer to Minnesota.
Denver's parting of ways with Munson IMO has a certain odor to it; but then Munson's sudden parting with UVM didn't smell right either.Last edited by Split-N; 09-04-2017, 12:31 PM."Through the years, we ever will acclaim........"

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check
It was reported, here in Denver, as a mutual parting of ways, probably due to the aforementioned signing of Dayton Rasmussen. Not sure if the staff wasn't all that impressed with Munson during practice last year, or if Rasmussen was just too good to pass up.
With Beef leaving tech after one year, there's definitely an opportunity for him to start this season, so, good for him. Edit: that's certainly not an opportunity he'd have here in Denver, this year at least, and maybe not ever.

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check
Are we at the point for guessing lines/pairings?
I'll give it a go.....couldn't be more wrong than last year after coach said he would keep the combos together longer.....
Bowen/Colton/Coughlin
Blanleil/Darrar/Petro
Priv/Puffer/Coughlin
Misley/Lodermeier/Alvaro
Esposito/Best/O'Neil/Vlad/Kaufman/Cowans/Frechette
Ori/O'Donnell
Phillips/Massie
Moriarty/Evers
Grant/Thomas/Kelly
Lekkas
Harmon/Beck
We'll see how close...
Hope the boys can gel lines early so coach doesn't put the names in the blender and see what comes out.....

I do think Colton and Bowen should stay together, that was such an effective duo.https://twitter.com/TheVTHockeyBlog

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check
My guesses for lines:
Privitera - Colton - Bowen
Puffer - Misley - Coughlin
Dzhioshvili - Darrar - Petruzzelli
Alvaro - Lodermeier - Best
Swap in Blanleil, Cowans, Esposito, Fréchette, Kaufman, O'Neil as needed
Massie - O'Donnell
Phillips - Abramson
Evers - Grant
Swap in Kelly, Thomas, Moriarty as needed
Lekkas
