Mass & New England Regionals Rosters & Schedules

The Massachusetts and New England Regionals are on tap for this weekend, Fri. Nov. 9th through Sun. Nov. 11th, at the New England Sports Center in Marlborough, Mass.

In a convenient twist this year, the two districts will be holding its playoffs in a single venue. In recent years, the New England's were held at the Berkshire School, so it was a handful to take in both. No longer.

The winners will move on to compete for a National Championship April 3-8, 2019. Here are the locations:

Tier I
16U & 18U -- Grand Rapids, Michigan
15 -- Plymouth, Michigan
14U -- Pittsburgh, PA

Tier II
18U -- San Jose, California
16U -- Plano, Texas
14U -- South Bend, Indiana

And here's the schedule for this weekend:

(There's one mistake on the schedule: For the New England District 15s, please substitute the Northern Cyclones in place of the NH Avalanche.)

Here are the program books for the weekend. Included are rosters and schedules galore to help you plan before arriving at the New England Sports Center.

1st Annual Eastern Exposure Cup Program

Matt Miles, the head of the Eastern Exposure Hockey Group, is hosting a 14U/13U tournament in New Hampshire this weekend (Nov. 2-4), with games rotating between Tilton, New Hampton, Proctor and Plymouth State College.

Thirty teams will be on hand: 22 Bantam 14U teams and 8 Bantam 13U Minor teams. Some teams are New England-based, but others are coming from a long way off. There will be 10 Canadian teams, all but one from Quebec and Ontario. The team traveling the greatest distance is the North Shore Winter Club (North Vancouver, BC), which has developed dozens of future NCAA players as well as a couple dozen who went on the NHL, e.g., Paul & Steve Kariya, Brett Hull, Evander Kane, Jordan Weal, and Drew Shore.

This tournament is set up as a showcase for kids who might be interested in what New England prep schools and colleges have to offer.

Here's the program book. It's a 28-page PDF that includes directions to the rink, brackets, schedules, and 30 rosters.
