LEWISTON — After a weekend loss to Messalonskee, the Thornton Academy boys ice hockey team was looking for a bounce-back game Wednesday. The defending Class A state champs found it at The Colisee against Lewiston/Mt. Ararat/Lisbon/Morse.

Brenden Shaykevich scored a hat trick to lead Millburn-Kearny-North Arlington to a 6-2 victory over Johnson-Dayton-Roselle Park at Warinanco Ice Center in Roselle.

It’ll be the first time since the 4 Nations Face-Off that the U.S. takes part in an international hockey tournament. After placing second in a heartbreaking loss to Canada last winter, the Americans could, and probably should, make some significant adjustments to the roster ahead of the Olympics.

Plus, this weekend, events to support Toys for Tots and a winter market to support the Boys and Girls Club of Chester, and more fun activities.

Ryan Montana scored four goals as Clifton secured a 4-2 win over Montclair. The scoring got started in the first period as Clifton (1-2) took an early lead. Montana added two goals in the second period while Jack Dunne got Montclair (0-3) on the board.

Derek Tumseden scored twice and had an assist as Mamaroneck beat ETBE-New Ro 6-2 in Dec. 9 ice hockey action. See rest of Dec. 8-14 scoreboard.
