Holyoke Papermen HC

COLONIAL HOCKEY LEAGUE ACTIVE LEADERS SERIES

We conclude the series today with one of hockey’s most hard-fought records: Active All-Time Penalty Minutes Leaders.

Playing with an edge has always been a part of hockey. Whether protecting teammates, battling in the corners, or setting the tone physically, these players have never been afraid to make their presence felt. Their competitive spirit and physical style of play have earned them a place among the league’s most penalized players.

ACTIVE ALL-TIME PENALTY MINUTES LEADERS

1. Russ Childers (Boston Gold Kings) — 117 Penalty Minutes
2. Brett Pitoniak (Holyoke Papermen) — 70 Penalty Minutes
3. David Piela (Norfolk Mallards) — 68 Penalty Minutes
4. Robert Clerc (Hudson Valley Reapers) — 66 Penalty Minutes
T-5. Kyle Mastroianni (Norfolk Mallards) — 62 Penalty Minutes
T-5. Mark Laviolette (Holyoke Papermen) — 62 Penalty Minutes

From physical battles along the boards to standing up for teammates, these players have never shied away from the gritty side of the game.

Thank you for following along with our Active All-Time Leaders Series. We look forward to continuing to recognize the players who have helped build the history and tradition of the Colonial Hockey League.

Today we remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. 🇺🇸🏒

From all of us at the Holyoke Papermen, thank you to our heroes and their families for your courage, strength, and sacrifice. We will never forget. 🧡🖤

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the amazing moms, grandmothers, stepmoms, billet moms, hockey moms, and mother figures out there! 💐
