NASHUA, NH - The Albertus Magnus College men's ice hockey team (2-1-0) set a program record for goals in a game after defeating Rivier (0-4-0), 11-3 on Saturday evening in a non-conference game. The 11 goals surpasses the previous record of 10, which the Falcons set in a win over Southern Maine in the 2024-25 season.
Nine different players scored a goal for the Falcons, led by Kyle Dann (Windham, N.H.) and Danny Storella (Stoneham, Ma.) who each scored twice. Braedyn Cyr (Oakville, Ontario), Ervie Terwilliger (Glenwood, Md.), Jacob Martineau (Sainte-Agathe-de-Lotbinière, Quebec) and Cole Barrett (Mississauga, Ontario) each had a goal and an assist.
Charles Lavoie (Chicoutimi, Québec), Owen McNamara (Aurora, Ontario) and Deacon King (Acton, Ontario) also had goals for the Falcons.
Chace Hale (Pittsburgh, Pa.) stopped 18 shots in goal for the Falcons.
HOW IT HAPPENED
- King put the Falcons on the board at the 4:30 mark of the first period as he deflected in a shot from Maksim Tsegelnik (Moscow, Russia) to make it 1-0.
- Nearly ten minute later, the Falcons would score consecutive power play goals in the span of 30 seconds. Dann struck first as he found a loose puck in a sea of players in front of the net and scored to make it 2-0 at the 14:05 mark. McNamara then took a feed from Jaxson Martin (Calgary, Alberta) in front of the net and backhanded a shot into the net to make it 3-0. Andrew Van Antwerp (Petoskey, Mi.) had the first of his three assists on the goal as well.
- With just over two minutes remaining in the period and Albertus on the penalty kill, the Falcons stole the puck in the defensive end and Charlie Anderson (Portage, Mi.) fed Terwilliger who fired a shot into the back of the net from the right faceoff circle to make it a 4-0 game before the first intermission.
- The Raiders got on the board with a goal from Trevor Riggs to make it a 4-1 game at the 9:09 mark of the second period.
- Dann scored his second power play goal of the game at the 13:19 mark of the second period as he snuck behind the defense and put a shot in from close range after taking a pass from Tsegelnik.
- Lavoie scored the fourth power play goal of the game for the Falcons after passing the puck back and forth with Martineau to make it 6-1 at 17:03. Van Antwerp added his second assist of the game on the goal.
- With 29 seconds remaining in the second period, Martineau deflected in a shot from William Lavigne (Sainte-Anne-des-Lacs, Québec) to put Albertus ahead 7-1 going into the second intermission.
- Rivier scored nearly five minutes into the third period on a goal from Gus Cantwell.
- Storella scored his first goal of the game and career as he fired a one-timer off a pass from Terwilliger to make it 8-2 just over the halfway mark of the third period.
- After a second goal from Riggs made it an 8-3 game at 15:34, Storella responded with his second goal 35 seconds later. On the goal, Cyr slid over a pass as Storella skated towards the net. Storella was able to stuff home the puck to make it a 9-3 game.
- Barrett scored the fifth power play goal for the Falcons just over a minute later and he took a shot from just outside the left faceoff circle after a pass from Lavigne.
- Cyr put the final touch on the record-setting performance from the Falcons as he juked his defender at the blue line and skated in and fired a wrist shot into the net.
