GAMES TO WATCH

Darien vs. Greenwich at Hamill Rink, Thursday, 8 p.m.: This is the second meeting of the season between the two FCIAC powers. Darien won the first meeting 2-0, and took three of four clashes last year. Greenwich, however, won a big one when they defeated the Wave in overtime of last year’s FCIAC semis.

Greenwich vs. West Haven/SHA at Bennett Rink, Saturday, 1 p.m.: Greenwich’s stretch of big games continues with a road trip to take on an SCC contender. West Haven entered the week undefeated, while Greenwich had just two losses to Darien and New Canaan.

Darien vs. Suffield co-op at Enfield Twins Rink, Saturday, 5:20 p.m.: The Blue Wave heads north to take on unbeaten Suffield in an FCIAC-CCC showdown. These two teams last met in the 2018 state championship game, with Darien winning 5-2.

New Canaan vs. East Catholic co-op (ETB) at Newington Ice Arena, Saturday, 6:35 p.m.: Another inter-conference battle pits defending FCIAC and state champion New Canaan, against perennial contender East Catholic of the CCC.

Amity vs. Simsbury at the International Skating Center, Saturday, 7:30 p.m.: The Amity co-cop, which has a 7-2-1 record this season, takes on unbeaten Simsbury (6-0), which owns the top spot in the state point rankings. Simsbury has allowed just six goals this season.

West Haven/SHA vs. New Canaan at Darien Ice House, Monday, 6 p.m.: A meeting of the top two seeds in last year’s state tournament. Both teams were ranked in the top six in the state standings entering this week.

Simsbury vs. Suffield co-op at Enfield Twin Rinks, Monday, 8:10 p.m.: Simsbury and Suffield are both unbeaten this season, so something could give here. They’ll play twice in a span of six days, as Simsbury hosts the second game on Saturday, Jan. 25.

Darien at Morristown-Beard (NJ),, Wednesday, 4:45 p.m.: The Blue Wave visits the New Jersey power in their annual meeting. Darien won this meeting for two straight seasons, before Morristown-Beard took the game last winter, 3-1.
