πŸ’ NY DEK Hockey All-Star Event Recap

The NY DEK Hockey All-Star Event kicked off with an exciting skills competition showcasing some of the league’s top talents.

In the Hardest Shot competition, Justin Gibson recorded a blistering 91 MPH shot, earning top honors. The Accuracy Challenge was won by Dylan Lashuk, who scored 4 points by hitting two of the small targets. The Shootout competition went the distance, reaching the 5th round, where Brody Weiss ultimately came out on top. On the goaltending side, Anthony Talavera was outstanding, allowing just two goals during the entire shootout competition.

The evening then moved into the All-Star Game, where the team representing East Meadow, Sachem, and Lindenhurst pulled away late for a 5–3 victory, including an empty-net goal to seal it. Despite the final score, the game was tight throughout and tied with about four minutes remaining, before the winning side capitalized late to secure the win.

It was a great night highlighting the skill, competitiveness, and excitement of players from across the league. πŸ’βœ¨

πŸ’ Free Agents Edge Massapequa JV 5–4 on Literal Last-Second Goal

In a dramatic finish at NY DEK Hockey, the Suffolk County Free Agents defeated Massapequa JV 5–4 after a literal last-second goal sealed the victory.

The Free Agents struck first when Christopher Conn opened the scoring at 8:58 of the first period, assisted by Luke Casimano and Liam Ging. Just minutes later, Liam Ging added another to give Suffolk County a 2–0 lead. Massapequa responded late in the period when Dylan Edmonds scored with 1:47 remaining, cutting the deficit to 2–1 heading into the second.

Early in the second period, Ging struck again at 1:34, finishing a pass from Hudson Garafola to restore a two-goal cushion at 3–1.

The third period turned into a back-and-forth thriller. Luke Casimano extended the Free Agents’ lead to 4–1, but Massapequa mounted an impressive comeback. Michael Kasparian started the rally, followed by goals from Michael Mondello and Greg Wallrapp, tying the game 4–4 with just 18 seconds remaining.

Just when overtime seemed inevitable, the Free Agents delivered one final moment of drama. With literally one second left, Benjamin Olsen scored the game-winner off a feed from Zachary Olsen, giving Suffolk County a thrilling 5–4 victory.

Both teams showed resilience in a fast-paced game that featured momentum swings and a dramatic finish.

πŸ₯‡ 1. E Meadow, Bellmore & Merrick (7–2, 15 pts)

Sachem claims third with consistent scoring and one of the league’s best goal differentials. A steady season positions them well heading into postseason play.

Edges Nassau into second place by winning the head-to-head series (2–1).

πŸ₯‰ 3. Nassau County Free Agents (5–4–1, 11 pts)
Same record and points as Suffolk, but settles into third due to the head-to-head tiebreaker.

Also finishes with five wins, but lands fourth after the other three teams picked up extra points through overtime or shootout losses.
