EAST LANSING – Three weeks ago, Michigan State faced the highest-scoring team in the nation in Michigan, now averaging 4.86 goals per game.
Two weeks ago, the Spartans’ opponent was Minnesota, the 13th highest-scoring team. The Gophers are averaging 3.39 goals. This weekend, MSU faces another challenge against a team that’s pretty good at putting the puck in the net – Ohio State. The Buckeyes, who’ve turned their season around since Christmas with a solid 4-2-2 run, are averaging 3.32 goals a game, which ranks right below Minnesota at No. 14 in the nation.
