AVHD directly attached...do I need to merge with VHD before moving?

I am installing a new Hyper-V host and moving some VM's. I ran into an issue where a VM with snapshots would not merge and the VM went into Saved-Critical and upon reboot went missing.

I followed the steps in this article ("Better alternatives to manually merging snapshots in Server 2008 R2" I can't post a link until my acct is verified) and got the latest snapshot mounted and the VM back up and it's fine. Now I need to move the avhd to the new host.

Is it safe to move the avhd to a new host and remount it? Or, should I merge with the original vhd and then move? If so, how...because there are no snapshots listed in Hyper-V Manager?
