The Vermont men’s hockey team is set to face off against No. 5 Maine in a two-game series this weekend. The Catamounts will be looking to continue their recent success on the road, with senior co-captain Joel Määttä leading the team in scoring. Vermont has been strong when leading after two periods and on the road, with their shooting percentage and goal output on the rise. In addition, the Catamounts have been featured in the Hockey East Magazine for their first-year players. Heading into the weekend, Vermont is in 10th place in Hockey East and looking to secure a spot in the playoffs. Meanwhile, Maine is in second place and will be tough competition for the Catamounts.
Maine has been strong at home this season, with sophomore goaltender Albin Boija leading the defense.
