A LOOK BACK AT LAST SEASON
The Mountain Kings joined the NAHL two years ago to begin the 2023 season and have played just 147 games in the team's history, including their 28 games played this season. New Hampshire's all-time record is 69-89-10-6.
Last year the Tomahawks and Mountain Kings faced off six times, which is standard for most in-division matchups. The Tomahawks had a pretty strong series, winning four of the six games. Only two games were played in Johnstown and four games were in New Hampshire, which flip-flops for this season as four will happen on our home ice and two in New Hampshire. The first two games were played in NH and they were both lopsided victories, one for each team (6-1 JTN, 7-1 NHK). The Tomahawks four wins all came by two goals or more. The Tomahawks only loss at home in the series came in Overtime by a score of 3-2..
