Northern Lights U17's win CGHL Championship in hard fought 5
by Jaclyn Hawkins posted 03/20/2012
 



The NLGH U17’s swept a hard fought, competitive U19 CGHL Championship Series over the past weekend in East Haven, Connecticut to become the first Northern Lights Team to win a Championship in the 7 year history of the Connecticut Girls Hockey League.  

A highly competitive 6 team field entered the tournament with any of 5 teams capable of winning the championship.  The Lights had outstanding goaltending from both net minders as well as 10 different goal scorers.   A veteran lineup provided solid leadership with 4 games being settled by one goal including the frenzied and physical final game against a highly competitive Shoreline Sharks Team ending with a most exciting finale with the Lights playing 4 against 6 with the empty net for the final 2 minutes.

The Lights were led by forwards Amanda Ogrin (C) , Josette Bilas, Jackie Pilatti, Mandy Poniatowski, Courtney McGrodden, Olivia Jalbert, Michaela Brotman, Stephanie Edwards;  A Defense of Sara Consolmagno, Kristen Kompare, Casey Della Giustina,  Kelli Baribone, and Sara Stewart and  Goaltenders Elena Arendt and Annie Henderson.  The Lights are coached by Mike Bilas and Jim Mill. 

Congratulations to the Northern Lights and to the Connecticut Girls Hockey League for a very competitive and well run tournament and to the East Haven Veterans Memorial Rink for their cooperation and assistance.

U10M End Season with a 3 OT/Shootout Game
by Jaclyn Hawkins posted 03/01/2012
 


The Northern Lights U10 Maroon played in the 2012 New England Bay State Girl’s Hockey Tournament in Dover, NH the weekend of March 2.  Our competition was two teams from Maine (Auburn and Bangor) and the Seacoast Lightning with a mix of U10 and U12 players on some of the teams.

 

We played our first tournament game Friday night – our girls were pretty fired up and we beat Bangor 8-0.  Our second game was Saturday morning – we beat the very tough Seacoast Lightning 1-0, a very tight game right down to the wire.  After lunch we headed back to the rink for our third game, beating Auburn 3-0.  This put us into the Championship game on Sunday as the top seed.  It turned out to be us against the Seacoast Lightning again.  And holy cow was this a game.  We scored on a shorthanded breakaway to take a 1-0 lead in the first period; Seacoast scored on a breakaway to tie it 1-1 late in the period.  

 

Lots of back and forth action in the 2nd period, no score so still 1-1.  Same for the third period – no score, still 1-1.  Time for a 3 minute sudden death overtime.  No score in the first OT.  Second overtime – three minutes, sudden death, with each team only skating 4 players instead of 5.  No score, still tied.  Third overtime – three minutes, sudden death, each team only skating 3 players – loads of action, but still no score, still tied.

 

So it’s time for a 5 player shootout.  We shoot first and score!  They shoot next – a big SAVE!  So we’re up 1-0, everyone’s going crazy.  Two more missed shots, we’re still up.  We miss our next shot, and they score so we’re tied 1-1.  Four more shots, four more saves, shootout over tied 1-1.  Time for a sudden death shootout.  Seacost wins the coin flip, they shoot first, they score on a really nice top shelf shot.  Our shooter puts one just off the top of the goalie’s pad, the goalie makes the save and it’s over.  

 

So after the most exciting game any of the kids had ever been a part of, we finished as runners up – a great end to a great season for a super group of kids and some very supportive parents!

With UConn's Alex Garcia, Fun & Sportsmanship are the GOAL
by Jaclyn Hawkins posted 03/01/2012
 

 

The Mini Lights, U8, and U10 Maroon had a special treat last week - a visit from UConn goaltender Alexandra Garcia. The teams had the unique opportunity to workout with Alexandra and hear about her experiences as a female hockey player. The girls had a great time taking shots on the NCAA goalie, and they even scored a few goals!

 

Thank you Alexandra for sharing your time, expertise, and love of the sport with the Connecticut Northern Lights!
