Berlin BlackJacks Hockey Is Here!

 

The Berlin Blackjacks debut season will be hitting the ice at Notre Dame Arena starting this weekend.

The Blackjacks are the 1st American Team to be added to the Ligue Nord-Americaine de Hockey, a lower-level professional hockey league based out of Quebec, CA.

LNAH translates to the North American Hockey League and differs from other leagues because it lacks a veteran limit rule, which allows teams to stock up on experienced players.

The league is also considered by fans as being the toughest league in the world.

Gino spoke with Blackjacks Owner Mark Dorval on the Magic Morning Show about the team and what hockey lovers can expect this season. Take a listen!

ROCHESTER,NH (AP) – Organizers of a more than 100-year-old New Hampshire fair that was shut down over finances say it will return for the second year in a row. Foster’s Daily Democrat reports officials announced Tuesday they have set Sept. 12, 2019 as opening day for the 143rd Rochester Fair.

The fair was canceled in 2017 due to debts and lower attendance. It was revived this year.

The Rochester Agricultural and Mechanical Association board says they made close to $118,000 in revenue at this year’s fair. Association clerk Don Whittum says about 20,000 people attended.

Fair staff coordinator Mark Perry says the fair’s success hinged on the fact that more than 100 staff members gave up their stipends. Still, Whittum says he believes the association can keep the fair going another 100 years.

CONWAY, NH – An Albany man allegedly tried to take a Police Officer’s gun while being arrested. According to Conway Police, Officer Hill was at the North Conway Irving Tuesday ( 10/2/18) when he saw 27-year-old Alex Spaulding in the parking lot. Officer Hill was familiar with Spaulding through prior law enforcement contact and was aware that Spaulding had an open warrant for his arrest for Theft and Receiving Stolen Property.

When the Officer approached Spaulding and told him about the warrant, Spaulding immediately fled on foot.

As he was running away Police allege that Spaulding threw away items in a small container. The items were later identified to be drug paraphernalia and what is believed to be Methamphetamine.

Once Officer Hill caught Spaulding, authorities said a struggle ensued on the ground between Irving and the Eastern Mountain Sports Plaza. During the struggle Spaulding allegedly attempted to pull Officer Hill’s firearm from it’s holster. The struggle lasted approximately 1 minute until other officers arrived on scene to assist.

It was later discovered that Alex Spaulding was out on bail and also wanted on several Carroll County Superior Court warrants.

Spaulding was charged with theft a class B Felony, Resisting Arrest or Detention a class A Misdemeanor, Simple Assault on Law Enforcement a class A Misdemeanor, Taking Gun from LE (Attempt) a class B Felony, Possession Controlled Drugs Felony Special, and Falsifying Physical Evidence a class B Felony.

Berlin Inmate Death Under Investigation

BERLIN, N.H. (AP) — The New Hampshire Department of Corrections is investigating the death of a prisoner who was serving a life sentence for murder.

The Corrections Department says 65-year-old Joel Smith was found unresponsive at 11:30 a.m. Tuesday at the Northern New Hampshire Correctional Facility in Berlin. Corrections officers and medical personnel attempted life-saving measures on Smith. The state’s medical examiner is investigating the death and Smith’s next of kin have been notified.

In 1979, Smith was convicted of murder in Maine and given a life sentence. He was sent to New Hampshire in 1995 as part of an Interstate Compact process with Maine.
