The Michigan men’s ice hockey team was back in action over the weekend, as the Wolverines shipped off to Boston to square off against the Terriers of Boston University. The Wolverines entered the weekend with a chance to make a statement against the nation’s No. 5 ranked team and reigning national championship runner-up.
Michigan made that statement, picking up two big wins — one of which came in overtime — against a super talented opponent. Here’s a rundown of all the action this weekend.
Friday night’s game got off to a relatively slow start. The Terriers had a chance to capitalize early, as Michigan got over-aggressive and had two first-period penalties, but the Wolverines’ penalty kill held strong.
