I have spent this week absolute dreading the fact that this group of Spartan hockey players is nearing their end. At a maximum, this group has just four games left together, a thought that bums me out, even with the deserved optimism that comes with knowing this team is capable of going 4-0 in that stretch and adding another trophy to this storied season.
The end of a long hockey season always comes on so quickly.
Thursday in Toledo, Ohio, playing without a safety net begins for the Spartans against the Cornell Big Red, a team playing to extend the career of their coach who is set to retire at the end of the season (a familiar story for an MSU opponent this month).
The Spartans handled Selection Sunday different than last season. It was not a celebration of returning to the national tournament. This is a business trip and the Spartans will be hoping they ar expensing more time in Toledo.
