Ben Dempster and Evan Regan each scored their second goals of the weekend, but the Danbury Hat Tricks couldn't complete the comeback, falling 3-2 to the Northeast Generals on Saturday night in Canton. The loss split the weekend series between the teams.

The Generals struck early when Alejandro Blum capitalized on a turnover deep in the Hat Tricks' zone, firing a shot past goaltender Parker Stockseth at 3:07 of the first period for his first goal of the season.

Midway through the opening frame, Northeast doubled its lead on a delayed penalty. Robert Savaglio took a shot from the top of the near-side circle that navigated its way through traffic and beat Stockseth, giving the Generals a 2-0 advantage - also his first of the year.

Danbury fought back in the second period. With 5:56 left in the frame, Dempster - who scored an empty-netter in Friday's win - put the Hat Tricks on the board. After Josh Williams' blast from the far-side circle was blocked, the rebound popped into the slot, where Dempster snapped it past goaltender Will Mizenko for his fourth of the season, cutting the deficit to 2-1.

Northeast responded quickly. Braydon Hudtloff created a play from below the near-side circle, spinning and feeding a perfect centering pass to Kody Moyer in the slot. Moyer buried a quick snapshot to restore the Generals' two-goal cushion at 3-1.

Regan pulled Danbury back within one early in the third. Austin Michaud carried the puck up the right boards and slipped a centering feed to Regan, who redirected it past Mizenko for his third goal of the season - and second in as many nights - making it a 3-2 game with 14 minutes remaining.

The Hat Tricks pressed relentlessly in the final minutes, outshooting Northeast 42-28 overall, but Mizenko stood tall to preserve the Generals' win.

Mizenko finished with 40 saves on 42 shots, while Stockseth stopped 25 of 28 at the other end.
