UVM 2016-2017 Season: Go Cats Go!

Re: UVM 2016-2017 Season: Go Cats Go!

How I wish my team were able to dispatch Dartmouth as easily as Vermont always seems to. Well...there was a point where that was the case...

This weekend series against Maine will tell us a lot. Traditionally, this is the type of series where we'd get a split (at best). To the extent we want to be contending for an NCAA berth we need 3 points minimum against an unranked team at home.

The Black Bears have yet to win on the road (0-3-2). Based on past performances by Maine, I would predict a Maine win or tie on Friday night and a Catamount win on Saturday.

If you guys are good enough to compete in the ncaas, you should beat maine easily at home
 
Re: UVM 2016-2017 Season: Go Cats Go!

They've shipped a lot of goals this season... and we've been scoring.

Also as mentioned above they are struggling on the road. Don't want to be too greedy but 3 points seems a reasonable expectation.

Hope so, but let's remember this is a team that also beat Lowell and Quinny.

Both of those wins were at home though. Like others I think all three results are possible tonight and Maine likely loses tomorrow. Maine is something like 3-25-2 in their last 30 road games.

I hope the boys are not looking past this weekend on their way to the Emerald Isle....
They need to make up for the series in Maine-land last year. I thought is was a buzzkiller series after starting the year last year playing all those ranked teams.
Then losing to Maine.....
Also would be nice if they played a few more games with consistent lines.

Go Cats Go!

Nice Win tonight. Maine reminded me of UVM teams over the last 5 years. Whatever could go wrong did go wrong. Out played at times so we need to be ready to go tomorrow.

Ya, the Colton goal was a beauty, as was the Darrar breakaway goal! They didn't convert those more times than not in recent years, so it seems like we got some guys who can put the puck in the net now! Obviously, they've gotta keep it going this afternoon--lose this game and it's kind of a lost weekend. Go Cats!

I was impressed with Vermont's speed and skill. If they are able to be consistent with their level of play they should have a good season. Goal tending appears strong as well. It will be interesting to see how tonight's game turns out after dominating Maine last night.
 
Re: UVM 2016-2017 Season: Go Cats Go!

Only saw part of the first period. UVM looked in control with lots of offense. Was surprised to come back and see the outcome. What happened? Will take the 3 points.
