During this break I got stiff even though I tried to stretch some (especially my bad knee) and I suspect it cost me 2 early goals in my second game before I felt warmed up again.

Stretching is important but doesn't warm you up. You need to do something to get the blood flowing and to warm up the muscles. Jogging in place, skating around, anything that gets the blood flowing might help. Then do some light stretching.
