The Tampa Bay Lightning don’t have many high-end prospects in their system, but one of them keeps adding big goals to his resume. Over the weekend, Michigan State needed just one goal to advance to the Big 10 Championship games as they beat Notre Dame, 1-0. Guess who scored that goal? Isaac Howard.
It was Howard’s 24th goal of the season as the Hobey Baker Finalist continues his career-best season with the Spartans. More importantly, when the spotlight is the brightest, Howard has been at his best. Case in point, the 2024 U20 World Juniors where he put up 7 goals in 7 games, including the game-winner in Team USA’s 6-2 gold medal winning game.
