AHL: Maine's Moore faring well

Followers of University of Maine hockey won't be surprised by the success former Black Bear Greg Moore is finding at the professional level.

After scoring just 8 goals in his first full season with the Hartford Wolf Pack of the American Hockey League last year, Moore already has 11 goals and 23 points this season for Hartford in just 22 games. What's more -- pun intended -- the 6-1, 225-pound right wing out of Lisbon led the AHL with a plus-16 rating entering the week's action.

Moore has been so solid that he earned a brief call-up with the parent New York Rangers, a team laden with talented forwards, making his debut on Nov. 21.

In 4 years at Maine, Moore scored 66 career goals and registered 106 points, topping out in his senior year with a career-high totals of 28-16--44.
