EAST LANSING -- Finally, Michigan State gets to play a hockey game at home.

After three weeks of practices and four road games, the Spartans make their Munn Arena debut on Thursday and Friday against Lake Superior State, a team they’ve already defeated once this year.

“It’ll be great. It’s good to be home and we’ll be ready to play,’’ senior defenseman John Draeger said. “We feed off the emotions and excitement of the fans and the band.’’

The Spartans (1-2-1) and Lakers (1-3), old CCHA rivals, meet in a non-conference series at 7 p.
