The Michigan State men’s ice hockey team is headed to Minnesota to run the gauntlet this weekend. The last-place Spartans are taking on the Golden Gophers after suffering a sweep when these two teams met the first time around.
Since MSU’s victory in the Great Lakes Invitational showcase against Michigan Tech, the Spartans have been without the team’s leading point-scorer, fifth-year senior Mitchell Lewandowski. In his absence, freshmen David Gucciardi and Jesse Tucker have managed to step up.
It hasn’t been pretty, though. The Spartans have not won a game since being swept by Minnesota.
