After closer inspection it appears the nets at southgate are larger than regulation....Lots of goals back and forth. Gorski starts out with three in a row for the mustangs but it was not enough to stop the cobras. See everyone in two weeks after playing two games in four days.
The season's first 9:30pm game was one for the books. Puck drop, 1-0 mustangs 13 seconds into the game. Faceoff, 1-1 cobras tie it up 10 seconds later. Thats pretty much how the rest of the game went. I think the lead changed teams at least 4 times.
Lots of goals and points across the board. Good looking puck movement to tally some pretty goals from the squad tonight.
Big game from Deroche with 6 points, followed by big 5 point nights from Blake and Ruben!

We're back and later than ever! Nice 8:30PM start down in Southgate to start the season. Big matchup against a deep Bullitts team and it kicks off with 2 quick ones from the guys in Blue. We fight back with 2 of our own and it remains tied until late in the 2nd when the Bullitts grab the lead. We throw everything at Eric Sale but he closes the door and we aren't able to tie things up unfortunately. The squad played well enough to win but it was not our night. Looking for a rebound on Friday against the Marauders.
New season, new Bullitts! After a long, very hot summer, it's finally our favorite time of the year. Hockey season. It's about time! First game of the season is against the Superchiefs, one of the top teams last season. Vincent put together a good squad, and we knew we'd have our work cut out for us. And of course, as every beginning of the season is, we have subs. Thanks to Uplegger and Bradybaugh for subbing in. The new Bullitts get started quick, with Sladich getting our first goal of the season in the first minute on a nice shot from the top of the circle that found that top corner. But we're not finished. Less than a minute later, subbing Bradybaugh gets a nice goal with a nice helper from Big Terry Johnson. Then we took some time off from scoring. And sure enough, the Chiefs come roaring back and score 2 to tie it up and take us to first intermission tied up. Early in the second, Halloran and Jenna did a fantastic job of keeping the zone, and Jenna fed Chet perfectly in front all by himself to take the lead. Then, it's a hard fought game. Both teams had aome good chances, with the Chiefs pouring it on hard. But Sale stood tall and got the win! Good start to the season! And now we have a short week and will get back at it Friday against the T Bolts. Great to be back!

Well this was one of you chalk up to being the first game of the year. We come out playing well and LeFevre scores the first goal on a nice feed from Dolega. Then Jonesy throws a puck out front that hits my foot and goes in. 2-0 good guys but as Lee Corso would say Not So Fast My Friend... the refs waive the goal off. The fans in attendance disagree with the call and the game was all t bolts after that. They cruise to an easy W and we look to get our legs for week 2. Good to be back.
Welcome back to the FHL! We’d like to welcome some of the new guys to the league, Matt McKinney, Jeff Rubley and Nick Patrick. The new guys played well adapting to the league. Great locker room guys as well! It wouldn’t be a Thunderbolt season if we didn’t give up the first goal, after that we seemed to settle down and get our legs. McKinney comes out with the natural hatrick with helpers from Ryan. New guys Rubley and Patrick say hold my beer, watch this as Jeff score 2 with helpers from Nick. The “new guys” combined for 6 goals and 3 helpers! That’s one way to get acquainted to the league real quick! The D played well! Alex is in mid season form! Looking forward to great season!

REVIEW: Galaxies vs. Marauders, Sept. 5th at FHL Rink
One Star | Would not recommend
By Captain Galaxie
September 6, 2025 — Frank J. Lada Civic Arena
Opening night in the FHL promised something savory—maybe even spicy. Instead, fans were served a flavorless, under-seasoned 5–1 loss by the Galaxies at the hands of the Marauders. It was a game that started cold, sagged in the middle, and finished with an unpleasant aftertaste.
Like a disappointing prix fixe menu at a trendy bistro, it looked good on paper—but left everyone wondering why they bothered showing up.
If you blinked, you missed it. The Marauders scored just 45 seconds into the game, catching the Galaxies looking like a team still reading the specials board. It was a bad start, and not the kind you recover from easily.
To their credit, the Galaxies responded halfway through the first period with a clean play: Gates with the assist, Blatt with the finish. 1–1. Hope returned to the table.
But it barely had time to settle. Less than a minute later, the Marauders struck again, reclaiming the lead and snatching momentum back like a forgotten appetizer removed by an overzealous waiter.
The second period was when the wheels came off—or maybe they’d just never been fully bolted on.
The Marauders added two more goals, both the result of clean puck movement and a Galaxies defense that looked increasingly overwhelmed. Aco, somehow always open, always fast, continued carving through shifts like a chef who brought his own knives.
Meanwhile, the Galaxies looked like a kitchen in the weeds—misfiring passes, broken plays, and a power play that felt more like a time-killing exercise than an opportunity.
By the third, the Galaxies were pressing, trying to salvage something—anything. But with one minute left on the clock, the Marauders sealed it with a fifth goal, plating an unnecessary final course that no one asked for but got anyway.
The Galaxies’ team rep was notably absent. Not because of a last-minute no-show, but because he had submitted a clear, respectful, advance request to the league:
“Don’t schedule us on Friday.”
The league went ahead and scheduled the opener on Friday anyway.
After the game, the rep didn’t hold back.
“I said I can’t roll on Friday. I CAN’T ROLL on Friday. I had the date blocked out, I followed procedure, submitted the request, the whole deal. League office schedules us anyway. That’s the league office, man.”
It wasn’t a reschedule. It wasn’t a miscommunication. It was a flat-out overlook—a table request ignored, and a customer left standing in the lobby while someone else gets seated with two extra menus.
This wasn’t just a bad loss—it was a poor dining experience. The Marauders got exactly what they ordered: space, time, and a box score padded with goals.
The Galaxies? Cold starters, no service, and a reservation that meant nothing.
Final Score:
“ZERO STARS IF I COULD”
Would not dine again—especially not on Friday.

Mustangs start the season on the road and go down one almost immediatly to 4.0 margitan top shelf. The rest of the game was more favorable for the mustangs, at least for one line. Producing six of the seven goals working the puck all over the ice as a unit. They did have an extra 10 minutes of ice time since no one seems to start the clock but still a great performance. Demars did demars stuff stopping pucks and playing as the 3rd D playin the puck up. Big help from all the subs, Crisi, Ruben, Bob Jones and kind of JC maybe? Its still unclear.
We started off hot with Margitan scoring 50 seconds into the game and that was all the energy we had. Mustangs capitalized on our mistakes and found all the loose pucks. Its week 1, lot of rusty legs out there, we'll find our groove. We did lock up a playoff spot with the loss due to some complicated set of wins/losses that occurred on Friday. We move onto week 2!

After a what seemed to be a short summer the FHL is back in action!
The Cobras come out flatter than a 2x4 and go down 5-0 within the first 5 minutes of the game. Fortunately we got settled down and closed the gap a bit in the 2nd period. We carry our improved play into the third period but the mountain from the first was just a little too tough climb as the Edsels ice us 6-3.
Felt good to be back on the ice!
the edsels came flying out the gates in the FHL opener vs the defending champions, with a solid 5-0 lead at the end of the 1st. after playing all of last year and spring together, the edsels kept on rolling the PP&P line to success. ryan pearson notched a 1st period hat trick that wouldve been a natural one if not interrupted by someone who only scores once a year while subbing. john pearson showed who still wears the pants in the house and bagged one to round out the scoring.
cobras gained momentum as the game went on, scoring twice in the 2nd. ryan pearson extended the lead with a late period goal, his fourth of the game.
cobras pulled one more back early in the third, but the edsels honed it back in defensively and saw out the rest of the game.
pearson may have bagged 5 pts and petro may have had 4 assists, but the player of the game was definitely gadulka fresh off hip surgery that shortened his season last year. homie didnt skip a beat and wouldve had a shutout if it werent for the dudes in front of him slacking a bit.
stick taps to chris vincent skipping his son's birthday to sub, and to adam gorski for being a sub then not being a sub last minute.
