The Wolverine Hockey program will see its depth tested this week as the face the top team in the Big Ten: The Minnesota Golden Gophers at Yost. Both teams will be missing key players due to the World Junior tournament but each squad has more than enough talent to play and play well. Michigan will rely on veterans like Jack Becker, Nick Blankenburg , Chris Summers, Mike Pastujov, Jimmy Lambert and (as always) Goalie Strauss Mann. Should be an interesting series. #GoBlue

The Wolverine Hockey team had a rough weekend, losing two hard fought defensive contests to a tough Notre Dame squad in South Bend. Good news: The season is not cancelled. We have good players and coaches who work hard and will turn this thing around. The Big Ten is a strong conference and has good teams that play a variety of styles. Michigan is good and Penn State is about to find that out.

I wise man once said "It is better to win ugly than lose pretty." The Patriots proved this Sunday. The defense and special teams (2 huge return plays) carried an offense that had under 200 total yards to a 20-17 last second win. New England kicker Nick Folk hit a 50 yard field goal as time expired to secure the win. Cam Newton and the entire passing game struggled but his scramble for a key first 1st down while drawing a 15 yard personal foul was a huge part of the victory.
