Hockey: Goffstown 9 at Winnacunnet 0

Late on Wednesday night from Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, NH – February 13, 2019:

By the time the game started the other night, it almost seemed like an afterthought. There was no public address announcing. There was a surprise playing of the National Anthem (we did stand and honor the playing of it). There were no starting lineups announced. Then finally, the puck dropped at 9 pm. Given all of that, the Grizzlies started the game like their shin pads were on fire. They came out flying, cycling and circling like an old western war party, taking the game to the Warriors. The Grizzlies took a 4-0 in the first 5:46 of the period, and never looked back.

Hockey: Goffstown 4 vs. Keene 3 (Senior Night)

From Sullivan Arena in Goffstown, NH – February 10, 2019:

It’s always nice to win on Senior Night but to beat an exceptional team, the defending champions of the league you play in, in a great game on your home ice. Well, that is something beyond special. Goffstown outlasted Keene 4-3 on a night where the senior’s effort was the theme throughout.

Hockey: Goffstown 3 at Windham 6

From Icenter Salem in Salem, NH – February 2, 2019:

The trouble with being so emotionally tied to this team is that we only expect perfection. Or at least a level very close to it. In Salem on Saturday evening, the Grizzlies lost a game that I can only really define as extremely frustrating, to a solid, quick Windham club, 6-3.

Hockey: Goffstown 3 vs. Kingswood 2 (OT)

From Sullivan Arena in Goffstown, NH – January 30, 2019:

Sometimes in hockey, the uptempo skating and pace of one team make the other team look less effective, or if nothing else, makes them look sluggish. Then again, that’s why you have to compete for all three periods or more. Goffstown battled back, tied the game late in the third, and won the game in overtime, 3-2.

Hockey: Goffstown 5 vs. Spaulding 1

From Sullivan Arena in Goffstown, NH – January 26, 2019:

It’s always good to be home. Last night the Goffstown Grizzlies hockey team returned home after completing a hard-fought road win less than 24 hours earlier. And it was apparent early that Goffstown definitely had a bit more jump in their step. The Grizzlies erased an early 1-0 deficit and skated with pace and resolve to a 5-1 win over Spaulding.

Hockey: Goffstown 5 at Portsmouth-Newmarket 2

From Dover Ice Arena in Dover, NH – January 25, 2019:

After a nighttime scenic tour to some of the ice rinks in the NH Seacoast area, the Grizzlies settled into Dover Ice Arena to play the Clipper Mules of Portsmouth-Newmarket. Despite some less than aesthetically pleasing play for periods of time, Goffstown willed their way to a 5-2 road win over a team just behind them in the standings.

Another Look – Merrimack at Goffstown

Players are held accountable by parents, coaches, ADs, and officials. Coaches are held accountable by ADs, officials, and parents/boards. Officials are not held accountable, and when they’re bad, they make a mockery of the game… Another Look – Merrimack at Goffstown

Hockey: Goffstown 2 vs. Merrimack 4

From Sullivan Arena in Goffstown, NH – January 16, 2019:

It is said that all good things must come to an end. Last night Goffstown lost on home ice for the first time in the regular season since February 8th, 2017 (Keene). That’s right, almost 2 full calendar years, and 14 straight home wins later, the regular season home streak is over. Merrimack just kept playing their game and got solid goaltending from Ben Hardy en route to a 4-2 win.

Hockey: Goffstown 6 vs. Alvirne-Milford 1

From Sullivan Arena in Goffstown, NH – January 12, 2019:

Goffstown returned to home ice for the first time in four weeks, and they played like it was good to be home. The Grizzlies got a pair of goals from Griffin Cook in the opening 2 minutes and never looked back.
