UHL ROUNDUP – 6/28/26 Week 6 (Regular Season)

Tech 5, Patriots 2

Tech won its third straight regular-season contest to stay atop the East Division, holding a single-point lead ahead of both the high-scoring Lions and defending champion Team X. After Ethan Lewis opened the scoring for Tech early in the first, center Salvatore Arena recorded the next four consecutive goals for the Vikings—two in the first and two more in the second—for a comfortable 5-1 advantage by the game’s midway point. Center Beckett Amidon extended his scoring streak to six games for the Patriots, accounting for both his club’s goals in the second period for a league-best 10 on the season. Grady Avica stopped 17 of 19 shots in goal for the Vikings.

Team X 6, Crusaders 4

Tied at 3-3 entering the final period, Team X scored three goals within the first four minutes of the third to pull away from the Crusaders despite a 48-save effort from Groton-Dunstable netminder Cam Columbus. Forward Joe Mazzone netted his second of the game less than a minute into the third followed by winger Finn Kimball’s eventual game-winner just 55 seconds later. Forward Zach Fortier’s unassisted goal at the 3:45 mark proved to be an insurance tally for X. The Crusaders received balanced scoring with single goals from forwards Aeyden Wong, Hunter Hillenberg, defenseman Jack Oldenburg and forward Alex Presti.

Admirals 7, Villens 4

The Admirals won their second straight to start the regular season behind a pair of goals from forward Evan Pargas and two-point performances from Nate Ricci, Dylan MacLeod and Brandon Hiltz, who scored the game-winner on the power play in the third. Forward Gusty Didier recorded a natural hat trick for the Villens, while goalie Matt Ulloa (23 saves) was busy contending with 30 Alvirne-Milford shots.

Lions 8, Huskies 3

Chelmsford broke open a close contest with five goals in the second period, led by a pair from forward Tyler Wright, while Lions goalie Will McNeil stymied the Huskies with an outstanding 26-save performance. Defenseman Cam Panzeri (3 points) scored in the waning seconds of the first period and followed that up with an unassisted tally at the 1:40 mark of the second after the forward Owen Dutton cut the Huskies’ deficit in half with a goal just 59 seconds earlier. Forward Matt McCabe and Wright scored 1:02 apart late in the second to put the game out of reach for the Huskies, whose offense was again led by shifty Leo Haridopolos (2 goals, 1 assist).

 

UHL ROUNDUP – 6/26/26 Week 5 (Regular Season)

Lions 6, Crusaders 3

After building a slim 3-2 lead following the opening 15 minutes, the Lions relied on three consecutive power-play goals to distance themselves from the aggressive Crusaders, who racked up eight penalties in the game. Forward Ben Panzeri (3 points) netted back-to-back goals in the first to help Chelmsford gain the early edge. But in the second, defenseman Colin Veo started a string of tallies with the man advantage for the Lions, followed by forward Lucas Donnelly (2 goals, 1 assist) and defenseman Cam Panzeri. Forward Anegan Anandan posted a power-play tally for Groton-Dunstable, while goaltender Cam Grasso was busy contending with 33 Lions salvos.

Tech 6, Villens 5

Winger Logan MacKenzie’s unassisted second goal of the day with 7:48 remaining, which increased Tech’s lead to 6-4, would prove to be the game-winner as the Vikings managed to hold off the never-say-die Villens. Defenseman Jackson Ferreira also posted a pair of goals for the winners after seting up the game’s first goal from defensive partner Braeden Sleger early in the first. The Villens’ third-period comeback effort came up short despite goals from defenseman Caden Martell and forward Gusty Didier.

Team X 10, Huskies 5

The Huskies couldn’t contend with Team X’s fast start as the defending East Division champs executed for five goals on 10 shots in the first, including the first of three on the day for forward Nolan Pelletier (4 points). Flashy forward Leo Haridopolos tried to keep the Huskies close, netting four of their five goals and setting up the other, but X’s offense could not be contained. Forward Jason Schultz posted a pair of goals for X, while forward Joe Mazzone chipped in with a goal and assist.

Admirals 5, Patriots 3

The Admirals earned their first victory of the season behind forward Kody Katz’s hat trick and a solid performance in net by goaltender Dean Rizzo (9 saves). After Katz put Alvirne-Milford on top with the only goal of the first, the Patriots battled back to grab the lead on tallies from defenseman Connor Flaherty and forward Brody Gleason. But Admirals forward Dylan MacLeod sent the contest into the second intermission tied at 2-2 with his team-leading sixth of the season. Katz and defenseman Jameson Thurott scored three minutes apart to give Alvirne-Milford the lead for good by the 4:16 mark of the third. But league-leading scorer Beckett Amidon converted for his eighth of the year to pull North Middlesex back within one with half a period remaining. However, the Admirals turned up the defensive pressure over the final minutes to prevent the Patriots from registering the equalizer before Katz netted his third goal within the final minute of play to secure the win.

 

UHL ROUNDUP – 6/14/26 Week 4 (Regular Season)

Tech 10, Admirals 1

Winger Logan Piasecki recorded his first UHL hat trick, while both forwards Mick Dagoumas and Zach Gagnon added a pair of goals to go along with an assist as Tech blasted the Admirals to begin the regular-season slate. Defenseman Braden Sleger (2 points) scored on the power play for the Vikings early in the second period, while forward Dom Petraglia posted three assists. Forward Aiden Bradish spoiled the shutout bid by Tech goalie Vaughn Christenson but netting Alvirne-Milford’s lone goal with just seven seconds remaining in the contest.

Lions 3, Team X 3 (tie)

Forward Jason Schultz’s goal with 1:03 left proved to be the equalizer for Team X, who denied the Lions their fourth consecutive victory to begin the season. Chelmsford led, 2-0, on tallies from forwards Rowan McDonald and Adam Marmo before X began their comeback in the second. Defenseman Cullen Murphy and forward Aidon Fallon both scored with the man advantage in the middle stanza to pull even with the Lions entering the final period. Forward Lucas Donnelly gave Chelmsford back the lead just 15 seconds into the third, and it looked like it was going to hold up thanks to outstanding goaltending by Keegan Hayes (21 saves). But Team X forward Matt Sartell set up Schultz’s for the equalizer with just over a minute remaining.

Patriots 8, Villens 8 (tie)

The Villens erased a three-goal deficit over the game’s final 11:30 to secure a hard-earned, come-from-behind draw against the Patriots. Forward Chris Ruggiero’s goal with 12:14 to go gave North Middlesex, which was powered by two goals apiece from Connor Flaherty, Aiden Payette and Nicholas Clemens, a seemingly safe 8-5 advantage. But the Villens began their rally on Pasquell Candelino’s second goal of the day less than a minute later. Candelino then set up forward Kyle Antonelli with 8:44 left to pull the Villens within one before the forward completed his second straight hat trick by netting the equalizer with just under three minutes remaining. Early in the third, forward Matty Kosta (3 points) posted a shorthanded goal for the Villens, who were backboned by goalie Damien Jackson’s one-goal-against, 14-save performance over the second of the game. Meanwhile, league-leading scorer Beckett Amidon was held out of the Patriots goal column for the first time this season but still managed to post a pair of assists to keep his scoring streak alive.

Crusaders 7, Huskies 2

A five-goal second period, which included four straight tallies from forward Jonas Carpenter over a seven-minute span, allowed the Crusaders to pull away from the Huskies. Forward Ben O’Brien chipped in with a pair of goals for Groton-Dunstable, while goaltender Cam Grasso turned aside 23 of 25 shots. The Huskies offense was paced by a goal and assist from 2025 UHL scoring champion Leo Haridopolos.

 

UHL ROUNDUP – 6/7/26 Week 3 (Parity Round)

Lions 8, Huskies 1

The Lions completed an undefeated parity round in dominating fashion, routing the Huskies behind two goals each from Patrick Walsh, Rowan McDonald and Sam Stagnone. Only dynamic puck mover Leo Haridopolos’ unassisted tally for the Huskies in the second period prevented the Chelmsford goalie tandem of Keegan Hayes and Will McNeil, who both turned aside eight shots, from registering the league’s first full shutout of the season.

Villens 7, Admirals 4

Forward Pasquell Candelino’s hat trick and four-point effort in his UHL debut powered the Villens to their first-ever league victory. But the Admirals, who had pulled even at 3-3 on forward Brandon Callahan’s first goal of the year with 2:42 left in the second, refused to go quietly. Candelino’s second goal early in the third snapped the deadlock in favor of the Villens before Admirals forward Landon Briand knotted the score again less than a minute later at the 9:55 left to play. However, forward Ben DiCarlo gave the Villens the lead for good just 21 seconds later.

Team X 5, Crusaders 0

Balanced scoring, tenacious team defense and solid goaltending proved a dominating formula for Team X in a convincing victory over the Crusaders. Forwards Matt Sartell and Nolan Pelletier (power-play goal) led the X attack with a goal and assist apiece, while goaltenders Brody Fallon (4 saves) and Nico Scaparotti (7) earned the combined shutout win. Zack Chandonette scored the eventual game-winner for X in the first, while Jason Schultz and Aidon Fallon potted third-period goals for the victors. Crusaders goalie Cam Columbus turned aside 12 of 14 shots he faced.

Patriots 6, Tech 4

Becket Amidon’s five-point output coupled with Aiden Payette’s two goals and assist proved enough for the Patriots to hold off Tech. North Middlesex scored twice in each period thanks in large part to Amidon’s four assists. The flashy center, who had registered a hat trick in each of the first two parity games, also netted his league-leading seventh goal of the season in the second. Tech suffered its first loss despite forward J. Martin netting his third goal of the year.

 

UHL ROUNDUP – 5/31/26 Week 2 (Parity Round)

Tech 5, Villens 3

Tech broke open a close contest with a three-goal third period, including a goal and assist from Logan MacKenzie, to pull away from the upstart Villens. Turning up their offensive attack with 16 of their 40 shots on net, Vikings forwards Nick Digoumas and Logan Piasecki scored three minutes apart early in the final stanza to stretch Tech’s lead to 4-1. The Villens attempted a comeback behind goals from defenseman Shane Doe and forward Kyle Antonelli before MacKenzie’s tally with 4:38 remaining stymied the short-lived rally.

Team X 6, Huskies 2

Forward Matt Sartell scored twice and set up another goal in a 2:47 span of the second period to allow Team X to pull away from the Huskies. Sartell’s first goal at the 9:04 mark doubled X’s lead to 2-0 after forward Nolan Pelletier posted the only goal in the first. Forward Ryan Baker got that one back for the Huskies 1:24 later, but it only took six seconds off the ensuing faceoff for Sartell to set up defenseman Cael Pickos for the eventually game-winning goal. Sartell then netted another one just 17 seconds later to increase X’s lead to 4-1 by the second intermission. Pelletier posted his second goal of the game in the third for X, while forward Jason Schultz added another to finish with two points.

Admirals 6, Patriots 6 (tie)

Hunter Duggan’s first goal of the season with 24 seconds left capped a three-goal, third-period comeback for the Admirals to earn a tie with the Patriots. North Middlesex built a 5-2 advantage leading into the third behind a pair of back-to-back late second-period goals from center Becket Amidon, including a shorthanded tally. Only two unassisted power-play goals from Jameson Thurott and Landon Briand in the middle stanza kept the game from getting out of hand for the Admirals. Alvirne-Milford’s rally in the third started behind a pair of Dylan MacLeod tallies sandwiched around Briand’s second of the day. However, Amidon completed the natural hat trick for the Patriots with 5:51 left to give North Middlesex another two-goal advantage. MacLeod pulled the Admirals within one with 2:23 left, setting up Duggan’s heroics in the game’s final minute.

Lions 5, Crusaders 2

Following a scoreless second period, the Lions, owning a precarious 3-2 lead, distanced themselves from the Crusaders in the third behind goals from Patrick Walsh and Matt McCabe, while goaltender Keegan Hayes (19 saves) kept Groton-Dunstable off the board over the game’s final 41 minutes. The fast-starting Crusaders held a 2-1 lead just 3:27 into the contest thanks to goals from Owen Bernard and Jonas Carpenter. But Ben Panzeri pulled the Lions even six minutes later with his first of the season before Lucas Donnelly, who also assisted on three other goals, put Chelmsford ahead for good 2:10 later. Crusaders netminders Cam Grasso (16 saves) and Cam Columbus (19) combined for 35 saves as the Lions hit double-digit shots on goal in each period.

 

UHL ROUNDUP – 5/17/26 Week 1 (Parity Round)

Lions 4, Team X 2

The Lions made their return to the Ultimate Hockey League by jumping out to a three-goal lead in the first period and never looked back. Forwards Patrick Walsh, Adam Marmo and Rowan McDonald crafted Chelmsford a comfortable advantage after the opening 15 minutes before defending East Division champion Team X managed to break the shutout thanks to forward Jason Schultz in the opening minute of the second. Forward Lucas Donnelly gave the Lions back their three-goal spread before the end of the period to account for all of Chelmsford’s scoring, while winning goaltender Keegan Hayes (14 saves) faced only three shots in the third as the Lions turned up the defensive pressure.

Patriots 5, Villens 2

Center Beckett Amidon scored his third goal of the day just 35 seconds into the final period, while goalie Paul Kelly turned aside 19 of 21 shots he faced as the Patriots gave the Villens a rude welcome into the UHL. North Middlesex forward Will Graves added a shorthanded tally late in the third to put the game out of reach for Villens, who registered the first league goal on the power play in the first off the stick of defenseman Shane Doe. Forward Marco Luis assisted on both Villens’ goals.

Crusaders 6, Huskies 2

The Crusaders erased a first-intermission deficit with three second-period tallies, including a pair from forward Jonas Carpenter, as Groton-Dunstable took advantage of the Huskies’ poor aim to pull away in the third. Despite numerous scoring opportunities, the Huskies’ shots continually missed their mark, limiting them to just nine shots on goal over the final 30 minutes. Carpenter completed the hat trick with an open-net goal with 2:27 left to secure the victory for the Crusaders, who were also paced by a goal and two assists from forward Owen Bernard, while goalie Cam Columbus stopped all six shots he saw in relief of starter Cam Grasso (18 saves). Forwards D.J. Murray and Landon Katz accounted for the Huskies offense.

Tech 7, Admirals 2

A pair of shorthanded goals just a minute apart in the first period allowed Tech to build a dominating 4-0 lead after the first period as the Vikings cruised to an opening-week victory. Center Dominic Petraglia and winger J. Martin both buried goals, while teammate Zach Gagnon, who had opened Tech’s scoring earlier in the period, was in the penalty box for slashing. Petraglia and Gagnon increased Tech’s lead to 6-0 in the second before forward Dylan MacLeod scored his first of two on the day in the period’s final minute to halt the Vikings’ streak. Starting goaltender Vaughn Christenson stopped all 10 Admirals shots he faced.
