Looking Ahead
Minnesota @ Penn State
Penn State’s season is coming off the rails. A sweep for Minnesota puts them in a great spot to hold down that #2 spot in the big ten.
Ohio State @ Wisconsin
This should be two more wins for the Buckeyes. They’re playing great hockey right now and can put themselves in the argument to be a top seed heading into the NCAA tournament. They’re not only the best team in the Big Ten, they’re one of the best teams in the nation.
Michigan State @ Michigan
A sweep either way would be disastrous for the loser and pure elation for the winner. This is the biggest series in the conference this weekend. Both teams absolutely need this.
