The No. 3 ranked Michigan Wolverines’ hockey will return to the ice this week after a two-week hiatus at the Great Lakes Invitational at Yost Ice Arena this Wednesday and Thursday to take on the No. 18 ranked Michigan Tech Huskies and No. 5 ranked Western Michigan Broncos.
The Wolverines haven’t won the GLI since 2015, losing to the Huskies in the 2019 championship game (2020 was canceled due to COVID-19).
Michigan has historically done very well in this tournament. The Wolverines have won more GLI’s then anyone else (17) and they’ll have to do it without five of their best players currently absent at the World Junior Championships for USA and Canada, respectively.
