History
[edit]
The New England Stars joined the International Junior Hockey League in 2008 and played in the New England Division of IJHL's Junior A Super Elite League until the 2011–12 season. In the 2012–13 season, the organization were founding members of the Northern States Junior Hockey League (NSHL)[1] The team was owned by The Hockey Academy which also operates local youth teams at various levels,[2] which eventually become the North American 3 Eastern Hockey League in 2014 after leaving the United Hockey Union and affiliating with the North American Hockey League and attained USA Hockey sanctioning in 2015. Prior to the 2016–17 season, the Stars became part of the North American 3 Hockey League (NA3HL) when it absorbed the NA3EHL.
Following the 2019–20 season, the NA3HL franchise was sold to the New Jersey Titans.[3] However, due to government restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic, the team was forced to play the entire season on the road. During this time, the team temporarily changed its name to the 'Mass Titans' but reverted back to their official name the following year.
