DU fans should be happy. Denver Post reports Terry, Borgstrom, Jaillet, and Hammond all returning. Gambrell still a question mark.

As much as he would make a very good Coach in the NHL...his niche is in College Hockey, he's done all the work needed to get to the top...and as his former Head Coach (Shawn Walsh) at Maine said...he's a Coach on the ice and saw that Montgomery had the tools then as he has proven in the USHL and in Div.1 Hockey. Denver's gain.

Honestly, it's impossible to predict success transitioning from college to an NHL head coaching job.
I think he'd be a good NHL coach, but you really don't know for sure because college coaches hardly ever get NHL head coaching jobs (I think Hakstol and Brooks are the only ones?).

Having a family member with close ties to the game is twofold for others, like Tyson. He respects the association to his dad but wants to mould his own path.

"It's good to be around it and know the way they work and know the coaching staff but on the other hand, I'm here to make a name for myself," the University of Denver forward said.

There wasn't much Todd had to say to Tyson coming into Jasper: "Relax, have fun and play my game," Tyson said, "and just make a name for yourself."
