Hockey Mid Week Post: UM Takeaways and Welcome Aboard

This past weekend went better than expected for the Michigan State Spartans hockey team, as they were not swept off the ice by the 5th ranked Michigan Wolverines. There was a time when a series split (including a a loss at Munn Arena meaning a season sweep to your arch-rivals) was not a cause for massive celebration. However, when you are mired in a season with massive winless streaks, and a 7-19-2 record you take happiness where you can find it. The Spartans played possibly their best game of the season in a 3-2 overtime victory Friday night at Joe Louis Arena, before being mostly over-matched in a 4-1 home loss Saturday.
