NAHL: NJ Titans at NE Generals
New Jersey Titans 8 –NE Generals 6
Neutral Zone headed to Attleboro and the brand new New England Sports Village to take in some NAHL action. We have seen both these teams before but not in a game like this. It looked more like an all-star game than a league showdown. It was “pink in the rink” night for the Generals which is always great. However, their jerseys numbers were almost impossible to see as they were white on light pink. As a result, we are a little short on the Generals in this report.
The new arena still has a lot of work to be done but the seats are well placed and the people from the facility and the team should be proud of what they have there. It will be great when completed.
We will have the NAHL covered all season and will see each team many times over the next several months. They are listed in no particular order.
Players that we noted in this game:
Todd Goehring (1997; NJ Titans, #19-F)-Todd had a four assist game. The 1997 played an elusive, clever game that allowed him to be a factor all night. What we liked most, however, was his play without the puck. He worked to get in good spots and understands space. College: Sacred Heart Grade: A

NAHL Showcase: Top 200
Neutral Zone headed to Minnesota for the annual NAHL Showcase. The scouts gathered in flocks once again in Blaine, MN to see the North American Hockey League’s annual gathering. The country’s only Tier II hockey league has had a knack for producing many Division I and Division III players that shine in their collegiate careers. The showcase displays regular season games, but some teams are still in a preseason mode and trying to sort out their rosters as players are showing up from the USHL daily. It’s early in the year and things will change during the season, but here are the players that had good weekends for themselves in front of the scouts.
The list of 200 players is sorted by teams. Grades reflect performance only here at the showcase and are simply in relation to the other players listed below. For example, a “C-“ player here is not a “C-“ player in the NAHL, simply in this group of 200. All players below have a link to their player profile.
One note: We had very limited viewing of Coulee Region (just how the schedule worked out) and thus only one player is noted.
We were in Blaine for every game of the showcase. We will be attending more NAHL games all season and will have game reports for each one. These evaluations are just the beginning. It looks like it is going to be a good year for the NAHL and we will have it all covered.
