MARLBORO, Mass. — Aiden MacIsaac is known for his shutdown-defending abilities. He makes life difficult on opposing forwards. He has a great stick. He maintains good gaps.
But with 12:09 left in a 2-2 game, MacIsaac held the puck at the point on a power play. He was sick of a power play that was passing up shots.
So, he moved, got a shooting lane and ripped one on net. Rian Chudzinski (Needham, Mass.) got a piece of the shot, tipping it into the Cushing net, giving the Boston Junior Eagles a 3-2 lead.
The Junior Eagles held on for a 3-2 win, taking the 18U Massachusetts state championship over the Central Mass. Penguins. The national tournament will be held in Cranberry Township, Penn from April 1-6, 2025.
