Vermont Catamounts Season Thread 2025-2026: Go Cats Go or No Cats No?

It seemed like Vermont came out hard first 15 minutes but then lost energy and Maine had them on their heels the rest of the game. Maybe buss legs got the best of them last night. UVM seemed to get slower to the puck battles as the game wore on.

Im not sure but overall it was competitive game most of the first. Then in the second Vermont started to make some mistakes and kept taking bad penalties. The worst one when they were on the powerplay in the offensive zone with the puck and a player cross checks someone right in the back in front of the ref. That pretty much ended it.

Soo, back to Mangbo. The one goalie of the the three that has a long record of being fine but not good. Wtf is this thinking. Unless someone tells me oster is hurt.

Mangbo is playing well tonight, had a couple great saves to keep Maine of the board.
 
Did not see that result coming after Friday night. Hard to know how to take it when they looked so bad in the last 2 games
 
Watched both games last weekend. Friday night it feels like Maine won ever single puck battle. I think they went with 8 D of Saturday night because the coaching staff went through the Friday game and sat everyone that was soft (they probably wanted to sit more but ran out of replacements). Have always been a big fan of Mangbo. In the post game interview with Wielder he said Mango has a groin injury and guted it out for most of the game on Saturday. I suspect that is why we have been seeing so much of Wright so far this year

I agree, I've always like Mangbo. He was solid last year as a freshman and started almost every game, didn't he? Despite my misgivings about the coach and team, I'm still a fan and always will be. Saturday was a gutsy win after getting clobbered on Friday. Thought I was gonna have a heart attack at the end though watching Wright. He was so shaky when he came in. Overall, I don't think the win will change anything and I continue to be baffled why this team has so much trouble scoring goals. I mean, we're pretty much at the bottom of the barrel in that department. Why?

Well that was pretty awful. And oddly, we now appear to have a fourth goalie on the roster, Cameron brown, listed as a grad student while his most recent team is listed as pingree prep, leaving unexplained where he has been playing for the last 4 years as far as I can tell. And after getting some playing time at Maine it looks like Sacco has disappeared again. Anyone have any info?
