Falcons torch nets again on home ice

It was another offensive showcase for the Eagle River Falcons as they poured in 13 goals Dec. 28 in a 13-2 victory in a Great Lakes Hockey League battle with the M&M Shamrocks in Eagle River.
This game was the second where Eagle River put up double digits on the scoreboard.
The visiting Shamrocks would take an early 1-0 lead in the first period, but the Falcons would strike with a one-timer by Bryan Kronberger and another goal by Zach Maillette for a 2-1 lead. M&M scored both its goals in the first, as Eagle River held the 3-2 advantage after one period.
From there, a steady dose of goals throughout the second and third periods gave the Falcons an 11-goal win and the fourth victory of the season.
Goal-wise, Kronberger led the team with a hat trick, along with two goals and three assists from forward Todd Koritzinsky. Koritzinsky has continued his production from a 32-goal season a year ago, with eight goals and 20 total points five games into the 2024-25 season.
Maillette followed with two goals, and six other Falcons tallied one goal in the win.
Eagle River is back on the ice for Vintage Derby weekend where they will face the Calumet Wolverines inside the Historic Eagle River Dome this Saturday, Jan. 11, starting at 7 p.m.
