9-2. Nine goals against. Outshot 46-26. All of this on home ice in the 5th year of a self purported 5 year plan. The Spartans' hockey team now sits at 5-14-2 on the season after they were blown out by #8 Michigan Friday night. It was the most goals surrendered to the Wolverines since an 11-1 loss in January 1993 and now means the Spartans have lost five games in a row, nine games out of ten.
The Spartans actually led in this game when Mason Appleton opened the scoring at 9:26 of the first period. That was the end of the good news for the night as Michigan would lead 5-2 after the first period on the strength of five goals in 5:40 of game play.
