Winter sport with a "hat TRICK" for scoring three goals (3,6)

I believe the answer is:

ice hockey

(Other definitions for ice hockey that I've seen before include "Sport with puck" , "Violent sport, big in North America" , "Game played by skaters with a puck" , "Team game played with long sticks" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
