From J.F.K. Coliseum in Manchester, NH: Undefeated Hanover remained unbeaten with a 5-1 win over Goffstown this afternoon in the Christmas Hockey Classic game at 2:00 pm. Hanover scored each of their five goals with 3:16 or less to play in that period. These goals made matters seem worse, especially for a Grizzlies team that generated a lot of great chances, but could not cash in, only to give up Continue Reading...
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...

Not much came easy for the home team, as Portsmouth-Newmarket (Ports-New) was feisty, and challenged every chance that they could. Continue Reading...

GHS Hockey: Goffstown 4 at Lebanon-Stevens 3
Campion Ice Arena, West Lebanon, NH. Tuesday, February 21, 2017. Goffstown at Lebanon-Stevens, 445pm. Maturity and growth are signs that lessons are being learned.

GHS Hockey: Goffstown 1 at Merrimack 4
West Side Arena, Manchester, NH. Saturday, February 18, 2017. Goffstown at Merrimack, 500pm. Merrimack and Goffstown are not too fond of one another. At least the high school hockey teams from these two towns tend to show much disdain toward each other. For the third straight meeting between these two teams, Goffstown was in a position of having to pull their goaltender. And for the third Continue Reading...
