Chevy Named National Player Of The Month

University of Denver sophomore goalie Marc Cheverie, who had four conference road wins, is the Hockey Commissioners' Association National Division I Player of the Month for December.

Cheverie, a Florida Panthers draft pick in 2006, led the Pioneers to a perfect 4-0-0 record in December, posting a 1.28 GAA and .945 Spct. He started off the month by picking up his second shutout of the season, at Michigan Tech, and didn't allow a goal in eight of 12 periods while between the pipes. Cheverie allowed only five total goals and helped the Denver penalty kill go 22-for-24 (91.7%).

The Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, native made 86 stops in December including back-to-back 21 save performances against nationally-ranked Minnesota State. The netminder now has a record of 13-6-2 with a 2.22 GAA and .923 Save % and has recorded two shutouts on the season.

Good for Chevy. His saves percentage is .925, which is where he needs to be to be an elite WCHA goalie. Right now, he's tied with Bachman (also .925) as the best overall saves percentage among WCHA goalies.
