Michigan hockey moves up in college power rankings after win over MSU

By Ryan Zuke | rzuke1@mlive.com

None of the top three college hockey teams in Michigan suffered a loss last weekend, although one team was idle.

Every week, MLive ranks all seven Division I Michigan teams, provide their latest results and look ahead to their next opponents.

Michigan is the only team to move up this week after a strong showing against rival Michigan State.

Three in-state teams remain ranked in the latest U.S. College Hockey Online poll and PairWise rankings, and they are all within four spots of each other. Although all three are in different conferences, how they finish the regular season and perform in their league tournaments could be the difference in one team getting an at-large bid in the NCAA tournament, and the other two just missing out.
