Neil’s Notebook: Final GLI at The Joe Awaits Spartans


MSUSpartans.com staff writer

DETROIT – Three of the four teams in the 52nd Great Lakes Invitational have won the tournament championship over the last four years.

Michigan won it the last two seasons. Western Michigan skated off as the champion in 2013 and Michigan Tech reigned in 2012.

The only team not to experience the thrill of a GLI title during this time frame is Michigan State.

And the Spartans are eager to be the answer to a future trivia question:

Who won the last GLI title in the final season at Joe Louis Arena, one of the most famous hockey buildings in the United States and Canada?
