December 14, 2005 Away gave vs Leavitt Hornets
Summary by Pete Blais
AUBURN — Despite some third-period heroics from senior center Sam Sheldon, the
Rangers (1-1) were stung by a 7-5 loss to the Leavitt (2-0) Hornets in a Western
Class B contest here Wednesday.
Sheldon scored two goals within 2:05 to pull the Rangers into a 5-5 tie early in the third period. But a Justin Rouillard tally with just under seven minutes left in the game gave the home-team Hornets a one-goal lead they expanded to a two-goal margin on an empty-net score in the closing seconds.
Greely jumped out to a 2-0 advantage on goals by seniors Tyler King and Brad Allen, although a Hornets’ score cut the lead in half with just over two minutes left in the opening period.
The Rangers likely went to the locker room feeling they should have had a bigger first-period lead considering they poured 15 shots on Leavitt netminder Richard Thibault. But Thibault kicked aside 13 of those attempts and 10 of 11 second-period Greely shots, giving his teammates a chance to pull the game even at 3-3 heading into the final frame. Junior defenseman Drew Bowden had the Rangers lone second-period goal.
Leavitt scored twice within 31 seconds in the opening minutes of the third period. But while Sheldon was able to tie the game, the Rangers were unable to get the go-ahead goal against Leavitt’s Thibault, who finished the evening with 35 saves, including several of the spectacular variety.

December 14, 2005 Away games in Canada
Summary by Pete Blais
SHERBROOKE, Quebec,
Canada — The Rangers split a pair of exhibition games against Alexander
Gault during the team’s annual excursion to Canada this past weekend.
The Harrison brothers, senior Sam and junior Harrison, left a lasting
impression on the host Pipers by scoring six of the seven goals
Greely
tallied in the two contests.
Sam and Harrison scored early in the opening period to stake the Rangers to
a two-goal lead in the first game held in the border town of Stanstead. But
the Pipers responded with four unanswered goals to earn a 4-2 win.
In the second game, held in Lennoxville, senior Brad Allen scored a goal and
the Sheldons tallied two apiece as the Rangers stormed to a 5-2 victory.
Junior defenseman Tim Stevenson suffered a wrist injury and will likely miss
a few games.

December 20, 2005 vs. Winthrop-Hill-Dale W 4-1
Summary by Pete Blais
HALLOWELL — Freshman Brian Allyn’s two goals paced Greely to a 4-1 victory over Winthrop-Hall-Dale at Kennebec Ice Arena.
Allyn opened the scoring for Greely at 9:49 of the first period on a pass from linemate Harrison Sheldon, Sam Sheldon’s power-play tally just over two minutes later proved to be the game winner.

But junior defenseman Drew Bowden restored Greely’s three-goal bulge early in the third period on a shot from the blue line.
Greely posted a 38-11 shot-on-goal advantage.

Summary by Pete Blais

Thursday January 5, 2005 vs Brunswick at FIC W 4-2
Greely downs Dragons - Brunswick falls for
first time this season with 4-2 loss to Rangers.
From the
Brunswick Times Record 01/06/2006
FALMOUTH — Sam Sheldon scored two goals and Greely
High School goaltender Billy Bolduc made 36 saves as the Rangers handed
Brunswick its first boys hockey loss with a 4-2 victory on Thursday.
Played at the Family Ice Center, Western Class B member
Greely (4-1) opened the scoring at 6:34 of the first period on a
Bryan Allyn goal (assisted by Sam Blais). Brunswick (6-1) countered
at 10:04 of the opening period on the power play. Henry Aschauer took a feed
from Wes Caparratto and fired a slap shot past Bolduc. Sheldon sandwiched two
goals around a Kit Smith (Josh Clark) marker in the second period for a 3-2
Rangers lead through two.In the third period, Brunswick outshot
Greely 15-3, including a penalty shot by
Smith at 6:17 of the period. Smith tried to force Bolduc off the left post, but
the netminder didn't budge, keeping the Rangers in the lead. At 9:43,
Greely forward Kevin Hart dumped the puck
into the Brunswick zone. As Dragons goalie Chris Billett went behind the net,
the puck caromed off the side of the boards and slid into the vacated Brunswick
net.
"The first two periods we were flat, but I have to give all the credit to
Greely because they came out and played with a
lot of heart," said Brunswick coach Mike Routhier.
From the Portland Press Herald
Greely topples
unbeaten Dragons
By DAN HICKLING Special to the Press Herald
FALMOUTH — The little things often lead to big results. Or at least they did
Thursday night for Greely, which won most of the tussles and ultimately toppled
previously undefeated Brunswick 4-2 at Family Ice Arena. Sam Sheldon scored
twice and Billy Bolduc made 36 saves to help the Rangers pull off the upset.
"The guys from the get-go played with a ton of heart," said Rangers Coach Barry
Mothes. "They sustained it the whole game. I´m very proud of them for working so
hard for three periods."
The Rangers (4-1) never trailed, although Brunswick (6-1) did tie twice. The
teams swapped first-period goals, with Bryan Allyn giving the Rangers the lead
at 6:34. Moments earlier, Dragons goalie Chris Billett had stoned Harrison
Sheldon, who stole the puck and skated in alone. But Billett had no chance when
Allyn stood at the edge of the crease and cashed in Sam Blais´ centering feed.
Brunswick replied on a power play at 10:04 when Henry Aschauer wound up from the
right point and zipped his shot past Bolduc.
Greely led 3-2 after
two periods, getting a pair of goals from Sheldon sandwiched around one by Kit
Smith of Brunswick. Sheldon´s first, at 1:02, came after he stole the puck
from Blaine Cardali at the blue line, then skated in alone on Billett. He
finished the play with a tuck-in through Billett´s pads. Smith made it 2-2
at 8:31, but at 11:51 with
Greely on a power play, Sheldon rerouted Leland Copenhagen´s feed
into the upper-right corner.
Brunswick stormed the net in the third period, outshooting the Rangers 15-3 in
search of the tying goal. But Bolduc held them off every time, making his
biggest save of the night at 6:17 after Josh Clark was awarded a penalty shot.
Clark tried to draw Bolduc off the left post, but Bolduc refused to budge and
fended off Clark´s backhander. "It was an up-and-down game and (Bolduc)
had to be on his toes," said Mothes. "I thought this was by far his biggest game
of the year." Freshman Kevin Hart sealed it with a harmless-looking
dump-in off the glass that caromed into the net after Billett was caught out of
position.

Monday Feb 13, 2006 vs Cape Elizabeth W 5-4 OT
In a big one, in
overtime, it’s Greely
By RACHEL LENZI Staff Writer
Tuesday, February 14, 2006
Somehow, Leland Copenhagen skated his way through a crowd to give the Greely hockey team one of its biggest wins of the season.
Copenhagen scored a pair of goals in a 5-4 overtime win Monday over Cape Elizabeth at the Cumberland County Civic Center, and his second goal was the winner. The sophomore forward sprinted out of the penalty box, picked up a loose puck and skated into Cape Elizabeth’s zone. With 3:38 left in overtime, Copenhagen split a pair of defenders and beat Cape goalie Ryan Hatch to end the game. "Cape’s always been a huge rival," Copenhagen said. "This means we have a good advantage."
Greely’s win snapped Cape’s six-game winning streak. Both teams are 11-7. "(Greely) came out hard tonight and beat us to a lot of loose pucks," Cape Coach Jason Tremblay said. "There were a lot of loose pucks and we weren’t getting the one-on-one battles."
The Rangers and the Capers always seem to meet in pivotal games. Earlier this season, Cape won 1-0 at Family Ice Center in Falmouth. The two teams met last year in the Western Class B championship game, with Cape taking a 4-2 win on its way to the Class B title. Greely Coach Barry Mothes called Copenhagen’s overtime tally "a huge goal." "Leland just made an enormous individual effort, to skate it from the blue line and roof it high to one side," Mothes said.
The Rangers came back to tie the game in each of the first two periods before forcing overtime with a goal in the third. Harrison Sheldon tied the game at 1-1 with 16 seconds left in the first period, then Kevin Hart made it 3-3 with 49 seconds remaining in the second. After Cape Elizabeth’s Tyler King scored at 8:41 of the second, Hart intercepted a clearing attempt by the Cape defense and cut in on Hatch to tie the game. "I thought our guys showed a lot of character coming back three times," Mothes said. Tom Rich gave Cape a 4-3 lead at 4:09 of the third, picking up a loose puck in the slot and beating Greely goalie Bill Bolduc, who was out of position. But Copenhagen tied the game again at 6:36 with a shot that trickled past Hatch. In the final seconds of regulation, Greely’s Sam Sheldon stripped the puck from Cape Elizabeth’s Ryan Tremblay and broke in alone on Hatch. The crowd seemed to hold its collective breath as Sheldon bore down on Hatch, but the senior goalie turned the puck away as the horn sounded. Greely, though, needed less than five minutes of the eight-minute overtime before Copenhagen scored his second goal of the game.
In overtime, the Rangers’ plan was simple. "Just keep it in their end, and keep it out of our end," Copenhagen said. "We wanted to get as many shots as we could." Zach Juliano and Kyle Dancause each scored a goal and Hatch finished with 25 saves for Cape Elizabeth. Bolduc made 22 saves for Greely. "We have a lot of respect for Cape," Mothes said. "We knew it was going to take a strong, consistent effort to win."
