Canton Hockey Strong at Showcase

CHELSEA — The  hockey team wrapped up its visit to the first-ever Michigan Public High School Hockey Showcase by shutting down Macomb Dakota 8-0.

The game was called because of the eight-goal mercy rule less than a minute into the third period following a score by the Chiefs’ Jimmy LaFontaine. 

“This makes us feel good. We’ve been playing good hockey this past month,” Canton coach Jeremy Majszak said.

LaFontaine wasn’t the only member of the Canton hockey team to shine. Taylor Baker, a junior forward, played the role of quarterback for his team. Garrett Bryden also scored two goals for the Chiefs.

The Chiefs (12-6-2) defeated Lake Orion 2-1 in the first game at the showcase.
