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. They are signs that messages are being received. They are the hope that adjustments and development will produce desired results. They reaffirm a coaching staff's game plan and direction given. Tuesday night, after two Continue Reading...
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...
GHS Hockey: Goffstown 9 at Alvirne 2
Skate 3, Tyngsboro, MA. Wednesday, February 15, 2017. Goffstown at Alvirne, 550pm. Maybe a gaffe; a faux pas, as it were. See, the game sheet last night read: Home Team: Alvirne. Visiting Team: Goofstown. I am sure it was an honest mistake, but then so were the 9 goals the Grizzlies put on that same score sheet. I doubt this fact was brought to anyone's attention prior to the game as Continue Reading...
GHS Hockey: Goffstown 5 v. Belmont-Gilford 3
Sullivan Arena, St. Anselm College, Goffstown, NH. Tuesday, February 14, 2017. Goffstown v. Belmont-Gilford, 700pm. Margin: a gap, an amount by which a thing is won, or falls short. The margin tonight, I thought was minimal, when looking at the full 45 minutes of play. Belmont-Gilford has played in the last two Division III State Championship games, winning in 2015. This year, they lost the Continue Reading...
GHS Hockey: Goffstown 3 v. Keene 8
Sullivan Arena, St. Anselm College, Goffstown, NH. Wednesday, February 8, 2017. Goffstown v. Keene, 730pm. Misery and gloom are associated with distress and anxiety. And these emotions could have played major roles in tonight's home game against the undefeated Keene Blackbirds. Especially when Keene scored six unanswered goals over a span of 17 minutes. But the Grizzlies kept skating. They Continue Reading...
NH Avalanche 2000 @ Seacoast – Game 26
Sunday, the NH Avalanche 2000 team played its' last scheduled road game of their Bantam Major season at The Rinks at Exeter. They squared off against a familiar foe, the Seacoast Spartans. Familiarity may have been the theme of the day in actuality, but maybe not in the way one may think. While the opponent was one that the Avs 2000 team has seen numerous times this season, it had been four weeks Continue Reading...
NH Avalanche 2000 vs. Seacoast @ Exeter
Well, it was Sunday, the final day of the NHL All-Star Weekend. All-Star weekend took place in Columbus, Ohio. Meanwhile back here in NH, the NH Avalanche team, or some form of the team, played the Seacoast Spartans out in Exeter. They say that familiarity breeds contempt and maybe that's true here in this past game. At least from one side. I don't know, I just saw what I saw. Okay, I know most Continue Reading...
NH Avalanche 2000 vs. Seacoast – Ice Den 1-18-15
Sunday, during a freezing rain that seemed to be far worse on the north side of Route 101, the NH Avalanche 2000 team played host to the Seacoast Spartans. Several roads were in fact closed, and accidents did re-route traffic in a number of places, but hockey goes on. After all was said and done, the score ended in a tie at 2-2. The home team led for most of this game, and, truthfully, I think Continue Reading...
