From J.F.K. Coliseum in Manchester, NH: Goffstown played their third and final game of the Christmas Hockey Classic Tournament in Manchester on Thursday night against the defending Division II State Champion Bow Falcons.

Christmas Hockey Classic: Goffstown 1 at Concord 6
From J.F.K. Coliseum in Manchester, NH: Goffstown kicked off the Christmas Hockey Classic Tournament at 4:00pm against one of the Division-I favorites to win the title, in the Crimson Tide of Concord. The scoreboard ended up showing a rather lopsided score, with Concord winning, 6-1. The score didn't completely tell the story of this game, but make no mistake, Concord is really good. Every line, Continue Reading...
Hockey: Goffstown 2 @ Timberlane 1
From the ICENTER in Salem, NH - Have you ever felt like you are a part of an event that appears to have been a massive afterthought? That's kind of how it felt in Salem this evening. Playing on the lower rink, where the clock is difficult to read, the puck marred glass above the boards severely impairs everyone's vision, and the facilities are better suited for Middle School hockey or a Continue Reading...
Hockey: Goffstown 2 @ Oyster River 4
From the Whittemore Center on the campus of UNH - I find that as I am getting older that I may be getting a little more critical in some areas. Even though my playing days are well behind me, it turns out that I still have this deep sense of competitiveness that bubbles up inside me. My mind is still in tune (as far as I know) with preparation, process, and the effort it takes in tirelessly Continue Reading...
Hockey: Lebanon-Stevens 4 at Goffstown 6
From Sullivan Arena on the campus of St. Anselm College - In recent years, it seems that whenever Goffstown is scheduled to play Lebanon-Stevens in hockey, either the game is snowed out, or the game is played closely contested, with a pinch of physicality. This afternoon when Lebanon-Stevens (0-1) came into the Grizzlies Den to play Goffstown (1-0), things played out like they usually do. At Continue Reading...
Hockey: Portsmouth-Newmarket 1 at Goffstown 3
From the campus of St. Anselm College - Thanks to mother nature, the Goffstown High School Grizzlies hockey team opened the 2017-2018 hockey season at home, with a 3-1 win over the visiting Portsmouth-Newmarket Clipper Mules. Not much came easy for the home team, as Portsmouth-Newmarket (Ports-New) was feisty, and challenged every chance that they could. Continue Reading...

Dover Arena, Dover, NH. Wednesday, January 25, 2017. Goffstown at St. Thomas, 530pm. Maybe all Goffstown's away games will be decided in overtime.

GHS Hockey: Goffstown 11 v. Winnacunnet 1
Sullivan Arena, St. Anselm College, Goffstown, NH. Saturday, January 21, 2017. Goffstown v. Winnacunnet, 730pm. Most athletic games are decided later in the contest than this one was. Winnacunnet came into Goffstown looking for their first win, with a first time goaltender. We here in Gtown Nation are familiar with that plight. Tonight, at Sullivan Arena on the campus of St. Anselm College, Continue Reading...
