No. 9 Michigan State hockey dominates, wins 5-1 in game one against No. 11 Michigan – Spartan Newsroom

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – On Friday, Feb. 9, the Michigan State hockey team defeated the Michigan Wolverines 5-1 in the second set of in-state rivalry games this season at Yost Ice Arena in Ann Arbor. After splitting their last series, the Spartans came into this game looking to get a win in game one.
Michigan State has worked tirelessly to prove its talent this far in the season, and with only five more games left this year, they are not looking to let up anytime soon.
“We still have a long way to go. We’re headed in the right direction and it’s exciting,” head coach Adam Nightingale said. “We just got to focus on one game at a time.”
Skating onto the ice with pure determination and speed, freshman forward Tommi Mannisto took a shot on the Wolverines’ net in the first minute but just missed wide. This seemed to set the tone for the rest of the first period.
Michigan State successfully kept possession of the puck throughout the first period, dominating on the opponent’s end. The Spartans put up some great shots on the Wolverines’ net but failed to get any past Michigan goaltender Jake Barczewski.
Throughout the entirety of the game, there was intense commotion in front of the net for both sides, but the pressure seemed to build immensely in front of Michigan’s net. Despite the scramble, freshman goaltender Trey Augustine made some strong saves, one particularly standing out at 7:44 into the first.
Mannisto and freshman defenceman Patrick Geary were noted for their speed in the first period, with both Spartans stopping near breakaway attempts by the Wolverines.
Around the end of the first period, it seemed that Michigan was getting a little impatient and somewhat testy towards Michigan State, but the Spartans kept their composure in response to their aggression.
Fifth-year forward Nico Muller tried to claim the first goal of the night with an incredible shot on Barczewski, but hit the post and deflected the other way. The end of the period remained scoreless.
The clock continued for another 10 and a half minutes before someone got a puck into the net, which went to the Wolverines. Like most times, the Spartans aren’t going to let Michigan get too excited. Junior forward Tanner Kelly swiftly banked in a goal for MSU just 25 seconds after Michigan got one past Augustine, tying the score 1-1 with 9:20 left in the second period. The assists went to Mannisto and sophomore forward Tiernan Shoudy.
The effort was there by both teams, but nobody could break the tie in the final minutes of the second period, keeping the board showing 2-2.
Going into the third period the game was still completely up for grabs for the final 20 minutes. That was until sophomore forward Daniel Russell lit the lamp at Yost Ice Arena for Spartan goal number three, assisted by sophomore forwards Isaac Howard and Karsen Dorwart in the fourth minute.
“I think it just shows you know, we can go play in any environment, we’re not going to be timid or anything like that,” Howard said. “I think that’s a great, great quality to have as a team.”
That wasn’t enough though, as freshman defenceman Maxim Strbak claimed another for Michigan State at 8:13 into the final 20 minutes. A lot of aggressive back-and-forth momentum filled much of the third period until Michigan State decided to give the audience a moment of deja vu.
For the second time that evening, the Spartans favored scoring a goal within 25 seconds of the previous one, but this time it was two MSU goals within 25 seconds of each other. Not only that, but the goals happened to be empty netters by junior forward Red Savage and senior forward Jeremy Davidson.
Savage and Davidson brought the final score to 5-1 at the buzzer, solidifying the Spartans’ first consecutive wins at Yost Ice Arena since 2017. Michigan State will look to complete the sweep against Michigan as both sides prepare for the annual Duel in the D at Little Caesars Arena on Saturday night. Puck drop is set for 8:30 pm.

DETROIT, Mich. (WILX)—Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance will return to Michigan on Tuesday.
The Ohio senator will speak at the Eastern Market in Detroit at 2 p.m. This will be the candidate’s eighth visit to the State of Michigan.
Vance is expected to discuss the economy and the auto industry.
This visit comes less than a week after he spoke at the Berlin Raceway and Entertainment Complex in Marne. He said he or former President Trump would probably be in Michigan every week until the election.

Michigan is a swing state with a significant impact on the presidential election. From the 1970s to the 1980s, Michigan voted Republican before voting Democrat from the 1990s to 2012.
Things changed again in 2016 when Michigan voted for Donald Trump, giving him a narrow win against his opponent at the time, Hillary Clinton. While the Great Lakes State voted in favor of Democrat Joe Biden in 2020, it’s anyone’s guess what will happen during this year’s election.
With Election Day only about a month away, the question becomes this: If Trump gets re-elected, how will that impact Michigan residents’ finances? Here are a few possibilities.

Earning passive income doesn’t need to be difficult. You can start this week.
Positive Impact on Select Industries
If you live in Michigan and work in certain industries, a Trump presidency could be a good thing for your wallet.
“A Trump presidency would have a positive impact on the finances of Michigan residents,” said Kevin Jerry, a nationally recognized expert in tax method changes and owner of Kevin A Jerry MST & Associates.
It might depend on the industry, though. In particular, Michigan is known for its automotive, manufacturing, tech, engineering, defense and professional services sectors. If Trump is elected, his policies could also support growth and innovation in these areas, good news for those hoping for higher wages or better opportunities.

Expansion of the Tax Cuts and Job Act of 2017
The Tax Cuts and Job Act (TCJA) of 2017 has had a massive impact on tax law. Most of the changes it’s brought about — specifically those that impact individual finances — are set to expire in 2026.
Trump was the one who originally signed the TCJA into law. If he’s elected for a second term, he could very well expand it beyond its current timeline.
“The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 will most likely be reinstated,” said Jerry. “That means the R&D tax credit, bonus depreciation on commercial buildings and residential rentals, as well as a continued 21% C Corporation tax will mean more jobs at higher wages because higher corporate profits will lead to more investments in plant, equipment and people.”
Some Prices Could Go Down
According to Jerry, a Trump presidency would have a largely beneficial impact on taxpayers. It’s possible that some of his policies would bring prices down, which would alleviate some financial stress.
However, certain policies could have an adverse effect on prices.
Trump has proposed enacting a tariff on foreign-made goods. This could support domestic businesses, which would be good for entrepreneurs and business owners. But it would also lead to higher prices on imported products. For those who primarily buy domestic goods, this might not have much of a direct impact, but only time will tell.
Housing Prices Could Continue To Rise
According to the S&P Corelogic Case-Shiller Index, U.S. housing prices are at an all-time high. The median sales price is $412,300.
As of now, Trump hasn’t specifically indicated how he plans to address the housing crisis issue. If prices remain as high as they are, or if interest rates continue to remain high (though there has been some improvement on that end), homeownership could remain out of reach.
There is potentially good news, however. The median sales price of single-family homes in Michigan is $260,000, significantly lower than the national median. For those who’d benefit from potentially higher wages or better career opportunities, this could make homeownership more achievable. There’s just no guarantee that prices will drop.
Stocks Could Benefit
The stock market has always been volatile, regardless of who’s in office. For individuals who’ve invested in stocks, a Trump presidency could be beneficial.
A recent CNBC survey found that 67% of individual investors feel that Trump would be good for the stock market. During his initial term, the Nasdaq rose 137%, while the S&P 500 rose 68%. In contrast, the Nasdaq has only risen 34% and the S&P 500 has risen 44% under the Biden-Harris administration (as of June 2024).
Regardless of location, those who rely heavily on stocks — either for passive income or as part of their retirement planning — could benefit from Trump. For long-term investors, the current U.S. president might not have as much of an impact.
