Late Heroics: MSU Hockey Shocks Minnesota with 3-2 Win
No. 8 Michigan State's Daniel Russell breaks a scoring slump with a dramatic game-winning goal in the final seconds to secure a 3-2 victory over No. 9 Minnesota. The win marks the first time MSU has beaten Minnesota in regulation since 2020 and keeps them in first place in the Big Ten. Freshman goaltender Trey Augustine made 28 saves, while the team's resilience and penalty-killing prowess were key factors in the victory. The teams will face off again on Saturday.
