Yesterday I went to East Lansing to attend the Big 10 Men's Hockey Tournament game of MSU v Notre Dame. First time I've been back to the Munn Ice Arena in years.
College hockey tends to be a lot of fun to watch.
We got there pretty early and before that got lunch at Raising Cane's the ne plus ultra of chicken strip restaurants. Yum. We then parked and headed to the arena, with plenty of time to wander around.
Free rally rags were provided to all the fans.
We got to watch the warm up.
And the game began.
It was a very low-scoring game with a lot of action.
A couple small fights, a few penalties and both teams were excellent at killing the power plays.
The Spartans won 1-0, with the single goal taking place in the third periods, with 46 shots on goal to Notre Dame's 19. Should have been a much higher score, but defense on both teams were seriously on point.
It often seemed the Spartans were taking shots when off balance and not ready to receive the puck after a pass to take a shot at the net.
Still, a win is a win, and they advance in the tournament to play again next week.
A nice Saturday day trip.

Cool I haven't been to Munn since the 80's. Despite living only 25 minutes away
