GAMES TO WATCH

Greenwich at Hamden, Monday, noon: Hamden has won four in a row, and the Cardinals have won two in a row.

Bishop Hendricken at Notre DameWest Haven (Bennett), Monday, 2 p.m.: Hendricken’s second game in Connecticu­t got called off a week ago because of the threat of bad weather. Let’s hope the Hawks and Green Knights get to play this one.

Xavier at Darien (Darien Ice), Monday, 4:30 p.m.: Xavier has won four in a row in-state after a 2-2 start, but this will be the biggest test since that 2-2 start.

St. Joseph at Trumbull (Rinks at Shelton), Monday, 7 p.m.: The Coach Eddy Cup honors the late Eddy LeMaire. Two teams playing well, too: Trumbull’s among the top teams in D-II, and St. Joseph, though 1-6, lost those six games by a combined nine goals.

Ridgefield at Notre Dame-West Haven (Bennett), Wednesday, 6 p.m.:

Ridgefield opened the year against then-No. 1 Fairfield Prep: overtime (the Jesuits won). Ridgefield faced then-No. 1 New Canaan last weekend: overtime (tie). Hey, guess what the Green Knights are ranked? Plan for a few extra minutes, just in case.

South Windsor at Glastonbur­y (Trinity College), Wednesday, 7:30 p.m.:

It’s looking a little like one of those Division II years where anybody can beat anybody. Here’s a match of a couple of teams with quality wins.

Darien at Fairfield (Wonderland), Wednesday, 8 p.m.: The Mustangs are showing again that they’re for real. Competitio­n with some of the big-name FCIAC teams, like their win over Ridgefield and this one this week, can cement that.

Masuk at JBWA (Danbury Ice), Saturday, 12:40 p.m.:

The old SWC rivals came into Sunday third and tied-fourth in the Division III playoff-point standings.

New Canaan at La Salle Academy (R.I.), Saturday, 2:30 p.m.:

La Salle, 2-0 against Greenwich and Darien last week, makes its case for an FCIAC championsh­ip this week. Shame it doesn’t play Fairfield.

North Haven at Cheshire (Astorino), Saturday, 8 p.m.:

Cheshire has played some competitiv­e teams well the past few weeks, and it will host a couple of more this week, South Windsor on Monday and the Nighthawks here. North Haven has won four in a row.

Darien at Ridgefield (Winter Garden), Saturday, 8:30 p.m.: This caps three games against top-10 teams for the Blue Wave this week.
