The No. 7 Michigan Wolverines (2-2) return home this weekend to open Big Ten conference play against undefeated rival No. 13 Ohio State (2-0-1). Michigan will be looking to establish some consistency after splitting a pair of games on the road against UMass last week one week.
The Wolverines have shown frequent flashes of brilliance this season, but have also proven to be green, particularly when it comes to closing out games. Michigan has relented a total of 11 third-period goals this season, including six last week against UMass to blow a 2-0 lead.
