98Elites Take Out Warior Elites, 7-1 / U15 SPLIT - TIER 1

Saturday, October 1, 2011, 1:33PM

The 98 Elites scored 4 goals in 9 minutes of the first period and went on to cruise in this one 7-1. The Vipers used a tenascious forecheck and stifling team defense in allowing just a handful of shots on net. The Defense of pairings of Steven Tettoni, Aaron Dollin and Christian Kukas, Ryan Connearney and Dom Cappadona and Patrick McCarthy played a solid game in front of goaltenders Zach Laramie and Aaron McDonnell. The defense made good desicions, good reads and good steps the entire game making for some quick and smooth tranistion while also showing good mistake management. The offense was led by the Green line of Dante Maribito (3-1-4) who chipped in with the "hatty" one of which was a "shorty' and 2 PP goals, Kyle Lynch (2-2-4) and Kyle Hentosh (1-2-3). Alex Delvento scored the other one of a beautiful set face-off play from Ross Wahl and Steven Tettoni (2 Assists). Kukas(2) and McCarthy also picked up helpers. Ross Wahl and Braden Haley were singled out for their strong play as well

98Elites Cruise Past Wizards / U15 SPLIT - TIER 1

Sunday, September 25, 2011, 1:32PM

The Vipers scored 4 goals in the second period and only allowed a handful of shots as they won easily 5-2 over the scrappy Wizards. Trying to get back on track the Vipers came out a little flay in the third but were able to keep sustained pressure and puck possession but could not score. Kyle Lynch capped a fine weekend scoring 3 goals and assisting on 2 others, his last was a PP goal that was set up perfectly by Kyle Hentosh (0-3-3). Dante Maribito also had a big afternoon posting a 1-3-4 day. Brendan White added the other tally as he banged in a goal mouth scramble. The Viper defense again made the easy plays and continued to push the puck up. Aaron McDonnell and Zach Laramie benefited from the stingy defense between the pipes as they were not called upon very often.

 

98Elites Show Life In Win Over Boston Advantage / U15 SPLIT - TIER 1

Saturday, September 24, 2011, 2:11PM

The Vipers bounced back against the Advantage in this one despite some undisciplined play in the first period but managed to win this one 9-0. Despite the score the Vipers continue to be stuck in some uninspired play at times. The Vipers got scoring from all 3 lines as the Green Line was paced by Dante Maribito (2-2-4), Kyle Lynch (2-1-3) and Kyle Hentosh (0-3-3) the Red Line was led by Brendan White (2-0-2) and Braden Haley (0-1-1) and the Yellow line was anchored by Evan Daddario (1-1-2), Noah Maercklein (1-0-1) and Ross Wahl (1-0-1). Alex Delvento and Dom Cappadona also picked up single helpers. The Viper defense did a nice job of making the simple plays and creating offense with quick transition.

 

Mistakes Cost 98Vipers-Elites / U15 SPLIT - TIER 1

Friday, September 23, 2011, 1:49PM

The 98 Vipers strung together their most discouraging performance in recent memory on Friday night and the upstart NH Monarchs capitalized on every mistake handing the Vipers a 3-2 loss with just 28 seconds left in the game. The Monarchs first goal came on the PP after a foolish Viper penalty and then a complete unwillingness to win a 1v1 battle led to the tying goal. The Vipers would go up 2-1 in the second but then a lazy clearing attempt turned into a turnover on the blueline that ended up in the back of the net for a 2-2 score. The a turnover in front of their own cage with 28 seconds left would immediately end up in the back of the net for the game winner. The Vipers lacked discipline, intensity, urgency and any willingness to win battles and races in this one. Kyle Hentosh would score both Viper goals, one coming on  the PP, Dante Maribito-2 and Noah Maercklein would add assists

 

98Elites Roll Over Panthers / U15 SPLIT - TIER 1

Sunday, September 18, 2011, 12:50PM

After giving up 2 quick first period goals the Vipers would score the next 7 unanswered in rolling to an impressive win over the Nashua Panthers. The Vipers who were out the services of JT Chamberlain with an injury got a balanced scoring attack from all 3 lines while all 6 D chipped in with a solid effort and Aaron McDonnell made some very fine stops down the stretch when this one still mattered. Kyle Hentosh lead the offensive charge with 2-2-4 totals, and Kyle lynch who scored the goal of the season put up 2-1-3, as he made an incredible rush in the third and finished by burrying it 5 hole captivating the energized crowd, linemate Dante Maribito finished with 0-2-2. The makeshift line of Braden Haley (1-0-1) (who played a fine 3 zone game game) Alex Delvento (1-0-1) and Ross Wahl (0-1-1) turned in a fine effort all morning. Evan Daddario and Noah Maercklein were the other goal scorers. Special teams also played a big part in this one as the Vipers cashed in on 2 of 4 PP chances while killing of all 5 shorthanded bids. Patrick McCarthy, and Ryna Connearney would turn in fine efforts on the blueline as well.

 

98Elites Tie NEHL Opener / U15 SPLIT - TIER 1

Friday, September 16, 2011, 12:47PM

After holding a decesive shot advantage and terrotorial play the Vipers let one slip away by giving up a breakaway goal with just over 2 minutes left in the game to setle for a 3-3 tie with the much improved scrappy Red Rangers. Phenomanal goaltending was the story for the Red Rangers as the Vipers could not cash in on the many oppurtunities they had. Playing well in stretches but very inconsistent for most of the game in which they lacked the killer instinct. Noah Maercklein would get the visitors on the board first as he skated down the right wing and fired a shot low that squezed through the 5 hole for the early lead. The Red Rangers would score the next 2 and hold the one goal lead into the third. Dante Maribito was able to tie the game on the PP as he collected a nice pass from the stick of Kyle Hentosh from behind the net. Kyle Lynch would benefit from some nice passing betwen linemates Maribito and Hentosh again as the 3 made a spectacular play to give the Vipers the 3-2 lead with about 6 mintes left in the game. The Red Rangers would then capitilize on a Viper turnover on the blueline and cash in on the breakaway to tie the game andhand the Vipers a disapointing tie.
