Vs Nashua North 2/16 - The train keeps on rolling . . .

The Marauders offense was firing on all cylinders as they overwhelmed Nashua South by a lopsided 9-1 margin for their fourth victory in a row.  Ben Acker led the attack with three goals, with single tallies recorded by six players.  Hanover connected on four powerplay goals, as well as one shorthanded goal.

Jake Acker set the tone for the game by taking the puck from the corner and sending a backhander high into the net with a little over a minute in.  Hanover blew the game open with a trio of goals in a three minute span in the middle of the first period.  Parker Thurston knocked in the rebound of a Ben Acker shot.  Acker followed with a sweet one timer on the powerplay, as Stadheim and Kim rotated the puck from the right wall to the point to the left circle.  Gus Lyons added a shorthanded score on a nice individual effort when he backhanded in the rebound of his own shot.

Nashua South ruined Luke Ratliff's shutout in the opening minute of the second period, as Hanover was caught on a awkward line change.  The Marauders rebounded with Ben Acker firing a wrist shot from the slot after Jin Kim did the bulk of the work behind the opposing net.  Acker collected his third of the night, and his second powerplay goal, when he skated over the Nashua blueline, veered to the left, and snapped a shot over the tender's glove.  Nashua continued to get into penalty trouble, and Hanover took advantage, with Stadheim knocking the puck into the net from the top of the crease, with assists to Lyons and Jonathan Goff.

Mike Stinson took over in the Marauder's goal for the final period.  Patrick Logan scored his first varsity goal as he unloaded a wrist shot from the point, as Austen Thum and Jensen Dodge kept the puck moving low on the powerplay.  Kordell Lindsay completed the Hanover scoring, taking a cross ice pass from Benjamin Chaimberg, skating down the right side before he cut along the goal line and lifted a backhander over the Nashua netminder.
