Clinker's Corner!
1. 7-5 win over the Colonials last night. What can you say about the overall team effort in the win? Team effort was great like usual! We put ourselves out of position on a couple goals chasing the ball but overall I thought we played a solid game! 2. It was a game of momentum swings. How enjoyable was it to play such a big part in the win and how would you describe the game overall? I love games like that! Its what makes hockey fun! Game could've went either way! Bounce

Stars ---- February 16th
25 years older than he was when the XHL first started, Adam continues to do his thing. Jeremy Johnson had the most impressive goal of the night, Cory had a big goal for the Invaders, Noah scored twice and set Brian up for another while Phil Mace added two goals. Match faced a lot of shots and made a lot of good saves to keep the Colonials in the game while finding enough energy to skate out for the Bear Claw afterwards. RJ followed up his big goal against the Eagles by da

Reiter's Perspective
1. You are on a 3 game winning streak after your win against the yeti on Monday. How do you think you guys did in that game? I think we played well and continue to improve as a team each week. 2. They are a little bit of a new look team compared to the last couple seasons. What was your impression of them? They still have some of the players we are used to seeing and they made some nice additions to fill out their roster. I don’t think we saw their best that night. 3. You got

Foradori's Final Thoughts
1. You got to celebrate another birthday yesterday. Did you do anything special to celebrate it? No I never really do anything for my birthday 2. You had your first game with the Invaders on Monday. What was your impression of them? They’re quick and have scorers but there’s always a way to beat someone. 3. The team started out slow but had a pretty solid finish. What do you think went wrong at the beginning of the game and what do you think you guys did better as the gam

Foradori's Final Thoughts
1. You guys picked up a 17-5 win over the Venom on Monday. How do you think you guys looked overall? Spotty, but it’s hard to really care playing games like that. 2. Invaders are next. What have you observed from them so far and what kind of game are you expecting? They have holes just like every other team. We aren’t the Yeti everyone was used to seeing the last couple years but we do still have Adam so we always have a chance. 3. Eagles lost by 6 goals to the Invaders o

February 2nd Results
Invaders 10 Eagles 4 The Invaders got some revenge and picked up their 2 nd straight win in the process. Following a close 6-5 win over the Colonials last week, the Invaders did not want a repeat of what happened in their game against the Eagles 2 weeks ago. Last nights game started in similar fashion with the Invaders scoring the first two goals to go up 2-0 late in the first period. Andy and Zach Smith scored the first period goals for the Invaders but Eric Llewellyn s

Andy (Invaders)
1. 6-5 win over the Colonials last night. What can you say about the team effort in the win? The team effort was great, everyone had big individual games and the team plays to help us win. 2. What can you say about Clint’s play last night? Clint’s been playing the best I’ve seen him play. Over the years our teams especially me have picked on him quite a bit but that might just fade away if he keeps this up! 3. Yourself, Brandon, Cory and Zach on the same line. How do you

Josh Clontz (Fill in for Bear Claw)
1. You got to fill in last night. How are you feeling today following all the skating around last night? Surprisingly, I feel good. Between snow removal, snowboarding, then hockey, I thought I was going to be sore, but I feel good. 2. You had no answer for Troy and Cody last night. What do you think wrong on the defensive side? Off the top of my head there was some miscommunication, some ball chasing, some dropped coverage, we will have to get a look at the game film to know

1. 16-4 win over the Venom last night. What can you say about the overall team effort in the win? I think the overall team effort was solid. There is a lot I can add but all of that is answer to subsequent questions.....so, on to question 2 2. No Bob last night. How do you think the team did in his absence last night? The team effort last night demonstrated that the team can still click without having what was our primary "possession" players along with losing another skater

Foradori's Final Thoughts
1. You guys poured it on after finding yourselves down by 2 goals late in the 2nd period. What do you think you guys did better at as the game went on? It seemed like we kept getting bunched up not knowing where everyone was going to be. Which is typical for guys that haven’t played together much if at all. But we started to figure everyone out as the game went on and the floor opened up 2. Matt Jewell is only 10 years old, but he has already contributed 4 goals on the seas

2026 Season Underway
Invaders 14 Bear Claw 2 The Invaders kicked off the 2026 XHL season with an impressive new look to go along with a 14-2 win over the Bear Claw last night. Jake and Noah took their talents to the Colonials this season opening up the door for Clint to add a few new faces along with a new look to the Invaders. We did not get to see the new guy (Gearhart) due to an illness. Some other teams were missing guys last night due to illness as well. The Bear Claw are simply look

Playoffs Underway
Blue 7 Orange 6 The playoffs began with a doozy of a game between the #2 and #5 seeds -- Blue v. Orange. Blue started the game where they left off the same way they finished the regular season; dominating the early chances to take a 3-0 lead. Jaron Buffone kicked it off by cleaning up a missed shot that caromed off the back wall right to his stick 5 minutes into the game. Zach Smith followed it up with his first goal of the game a couple minutes later. Jaron then took
