Is Denver rebounding since Omaha?

Wonder who Montgomery will play in net?

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Before Matt Carle's injury in mid January he had played 347 straight games. The streak began March 27, 2010.

The youngest brother, Alex, had played 6 games with Youngstown in 2013-14 season before injuries sidelined him. And after 15 months is now back on the ice with the NAHL Lone Star Brahmas. Alex will be skating for Merrimack next year.

Wow, he looks just like his brother Matt!! And what's with him signing with Merrimack?, why not Denver?

He committed to Merrimack in January 2013, old news.

Chambers reporting that Loney is out this weekend with a lower body injury.

Denver goalies.

Wow...I guess a height difference between the two goalies is news-worthy, while a completely obscene (yet, alas, totally meaningful) stat observation that TJ has done well in NCHC action and EC has been not so great in equivilant action is not worthy. Weird...does not compute for this guy ...anywho t-minus 2 1/2 hours until rink landing :-) Hoping for as full of a house as we can get!

Jaillet in goal tonight

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Yes, Dmann, Alex really, really looks like Matt. After reading the article, got the impression he wanted to stay in the East, but whether DU recruited him or how hard only Gwoz, Stever Miller and the Carle family know.

Interesting article about the top 2 goalies. "Average" week in practice for both when this weekend Pios could move into the top 4 with a sweep of UMD. Bulldogs didn't look good at all against Bemidji and they beat the gophers, but not dominate. Seemed like DU and Miami played faster than UMD did against the Beavs and the gophs. DU lines will change again if Loney doesn't play. Interesting questions for Monty to solve his weekend.

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Incremental progress.

Before last weekend's games with Miami, Denver and Vermont were tied for 12th place in the PWR. Denver's split at Miami, combined with the other results throughout division 1 hockey, boosted the Pioneers into sole possession of 11th place in the PWR. The split gained in this weekend's games versus Duluth, again combined with the results of games throughout division 1 hockey, has boosted Denver into a 9th place tie with Harvard in the PWR. [Maine plays UConn in today's only game and I don't know what bearing the outcome of that game will have on Denver's PWR standing].

From a 12th place tie, to sole possession of 11th place, to a tie for 9th place in the PWR. Small steps, but incremental progress.

When Coach Monty talked about a goalie rotation... It really meant an in-game rotation ... ;-)

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Saw 14ers comment on the UMD thread.

co14ers;[/B]6089938]I don't know if it was a dive or not, but the play happened right in front of me. Chris and I thought they gave a two minute penalty, but then the linesman went to talk to a quite unhappy Sandelin and 5 minutes were put up on the board. The funniest thing was when Chris and I both looked at each other when the penalty was announced as a 5 minute interference. Huh? Five minute interference? No game misconduct. [/I] Weird indeed. I'd never heard of that before...

UMD fans said there was 5min interference call in their game against Bemidji.
Never heard of it before and don't know what it takes to get a 5 instead of a 2

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Nice story on the Zajacs

DU is currently 15-9-1 and has 9 games left with 3 against CC. Those are 3 must wins in my book. CC is awful and 47th in PWR. DU can't afford for PWR purposes to lose any games to them. Assuming 3 wins against CC, the record increases to 18-9-1. DU has 3 other series left and considering how this league is comprised of splits DU could end up 21-12-1. If they are able to sweep at least one series, they would be 22-11-1. UND is 2 in PWR, Miami is 8 in PWR and SCSU is 25th in PWR. With DU playing two highly rated teams before SCSU, they have a great chance of really solidifying their PWR. They can't afford to get swept at SCSU or lose any games to CC.

2/6 @ CC
2/13 & 14 @UND
2/20 @ CC
2/21 CC
2/27 & 28 Miami
3/6 & 7 @SCSU

Re: All Things Denver, XXX1X

Here are my shot from the Friday game. I haven't had time to tag them yet, but wanted to get them up on my site quickly. I took almost 1000 shots on Saturday, so I'll be retouching those next. Took about an hour to download them all from my camera, lol.
