Dick Tuthill asked "whatever happened to Ian Boyce?" For those of you who may not remember him, Boyce was an exceptional forward for UVM from 1985-89. He is the Catamounts' 15th all-time leading scorer (49-83-132 in 126 games). Boyce earned All-ECAC honors in 1988 and was an Honorable Mention all-star in 1989. After graduation, the Buffalo Sabres took Boyce with their first pick in the 1989 Supplemental Draft. He began his minor league career with Rochester of the AHL in 1990-91 (after spending one season in Sweden) and was loaned to Fort Wayne of the IHL the same year. Boyce has been with Fort Wayne ever since, although the Sabres no longer own his rights. The forward scored a career-high 26 goals last year. You might wonder why Fort Wayne would hang on to a 15-20 goal scorer for all these years ... but anyone who ever saw Boyce play knows why. He is a great skater, relentless fore- and backchecker, great penalty killer and a physical player. He was the heart and soul of some great UVM teams.
