NHIAA Hockey D2 – Boys – 2024-2025
Perhaps this page is just for me. I look for results, numbers, and other things having to do with NHIAA Hockey, many times after seasons are long gone. So, here is a bunch of stuff, on one page.
Goffstown Hockey 2021-2022: The Love Runs Out
Perhaps, as we walk quickly away from another season that our sons and daughters played,
we should pause for perspective, all the focus on them, and for our enjoyment, the prices they paid.
We all entered these overlapping eras the same way, from the back door, before dawn on a late November morn,
but did you get through the months that followed unmarked by the passion? Love of the game reborn.
Was all of this just another drive-thru moment, capture a picture here and there, passing by, out and about?
Or did you find a place to dig in, a connection to all-time, to make it better before the love runs out?
Hockey: Goffstown Grizzlies Win 2 out of 3 to Start the New Year
Goffstown started the New Year with a pair of home games at Sullivan Arena. It is always good to be hosting games at one of the best facilities in the state. The Grizzlies have been tough to beat on their home ice over the years. On Monday night (1-3-22), the Grizzlies played host to the Manchester Kings. The Kings were not impressed by Goffstown’s home record in recent years.

Hockey: Goffstown Hockey Spends Christmas Vacation on the Ice
The season opener finally came, and went. The Grizzlies had their annual Christmas Eve skate. Then it was Christmas Day, and remembrance of the greatest gift. But, the sweaters and pajamas were tossed quickly aside because the Christmas Tournament started the very next day. And what’s this? A league game over Christmas break?!?

Hockey: Goffstown 3 vs. Somersworth-Coe-Brown/Northwood 6
Finally, the 2021-2022 hockey regular season got under way for the Goffstown Grizzlies. After a game that was postponed due to winter weather, and another game pushed back due to illness, Goffstown played host to the Bearcats from Somersworth-Coe-Brown-Northwood Academy (SCBN) on Wednesday night.
Goffstown Hockey 2020-2021: Golden Slumbers
Hopefully this hockey season will go down as the most peculiar season of all time, and as the only one of it’s kind. Despite all of the misinformation and uncertainty, it was a near miracle that there was a season at all. I would be a complete fraud if I didn’t also promote the idea of how incredibly uplifting it was to play games, to embrace competition, and to know that the kids were simply able to play. Easily the happiest of my leisure activities over the winter, was watching the kids play. Kids playing the sport they love, as they should.

Tournament Hockey: Goffstown 2 vs. Oyster River 7
Last night the Goffstown Grizzlies traveled out to Durham, NH to play the #1 ranked team in their region, the Oyster River Bobcats. They played ice hockey on a piece of property called Jackson Landing, a place that the Jackson family first owned as early as 1658. Back then they might have just played the game on the river.
Tournament Hockey: Goffstown 5 vs. Portsmouth-Newmarket 3
When the calendar turns to March, and high school hockey is still being played, you know that it’s a whole new season. Outcomes are not quite as predictable. Grit and determination is up. Scouting is up. Most everyone is aware of both their opponent’s strengths and their weaknesses. Intensity is way up. Every shift, move, pass, shot, hustle, or not, is all scrutinized with a higher degree of viewership. This is playoff hockey, and all of these things were evident right from the opening face-off.
