Holy moly that was an unbelievable game.

Also - was it me or did Rico Petruzzelli basically disappear in the third/OT? I did not see much of him out there

Absolutely great game in my opinion. I really hope we stick with those lines. Colton looked better at center than he did on either wing, so I'd like to see him stay there (played first period at center). Misley is starting to grow into the college game, showed signs of life tonight. Bowen looked great as well.

I agree. I thought each of the top 3 lines looked excellent and Kaufman on the fourth was good too. That kid has some wheels and dangles.

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check

Seems like the coaches are getting line combinations sorted out. Colton centering for Privitera and Puffer worked well. Let them build some chemistry. Alvaro, Darrar, and Bowen have played together the last two games and are producing. That should be the top two lines that dress every game.

Lodermeier worked well centering for Misley and Esposito and that should be the third line until Blanleil is back. I think Lodermeier has been the most consistent center on the team.

For the fourth line I think you swap that entire line each game between Best/Kaufman/Petruzzelli and Cowans/Coughlin/O'Neil.

That is my uninformed opinion.

Lodermeier to me is like vanilla ice cream. Sure there's sexier names with more flash, but he gets the job done consistently.

I think I'm glad I went to Ragnarok instead of watching the game.

Is it too early to say this team sucks?!? I'm thinking no....

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check

it's gonna be one of those seasons isn't it

at least basketball is starting

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check

After 8 games, the Cats have only 3 players (O'Donnell, Puffer, Evers) who have recorded both a goal and an assist. Just for a little perspective, UConn has 11.

Time to start looking for a new coaching staff. The 3 Stooges just aren’t cutting it.

Re: UVM 2017/18: A Gutt Check

I feel bad for hyping up this team in preseason tbh. Granted, there is still time to turn it around, but still, this start has been disappointing

I thought we'd turned a corner after UNH but noooooo
