Michigan State opened up the weekend in a big way on Friday night, hammering the Golden Gophers 9-3. While things were tight early on, MSU exploded for four goals in the second period, and pulled away with another four in the third.
Isaac Howard and David Gucciardi each two goals for the Spartans, while Daniel Russell, Mikey DeAngelo, Charlie Stramel, Tommi Mannisto, Matt Basgall and Maxim Strbak each had multi-point games. Strbak led the green and white with four assists.
The Spartans came into the weekend after losing out on the No. 1 ranking in the country for the first time in 2025. That came after MSU split their weekend series with rival Michigan. Yet, despite their nine-game unbeaten streak ending, the Spartans still have one of the best teams in the country.
The Gophers also came out with a split last weekend. Losing and beating Notre Dame on home ice. While Minnesota certainly has one of the top groups in the NCAA, they have not won consecutive games since they swept Michigan last month.
Heading into Saturday night, the Spartans sit atop the Big Ten, four points ahead of the Gophers.
The Spartans are now 3-0 against the Gophers, which included two wins in Minneapolis

Minnesota woman killed in skydiving accident in Arizona, FAA and local authorities investigating
A Minnesotan was killed in a skydiving accident in Arizona on Friday.
According to the Eloy, AZ, Police Department, first responders were called to Skydive Arizona around 4:06 p.m. on Friday on a report of a parachutist “experiencing complications during descent.”
Despite medics trying to save her life, the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities identified her as 55-year-old Ann Wick of Minnesota.
The cause of the accident is still under investigation. The FAA confirmed to KSTP that it is investigating the packing of the parachutes and rules of flight for the pilot and plane. If it doesn’t find any evidence of violating regulations, it will defer any further investigation to local law enforcement.
The FAA said it does not determine the cause of the accident.

Gophers men’s hockey team plays Michigan State into OT, but the extra point gets away
On Saturday, for the second time in four meetings this season, the Gophers and Michigan State men’s hockey teams went into overtime.
And for the second time the Spartans won a shootout to earn the extra point in the Big Ten standings.
After the teams skated to a 3-3 tie through three periods at Munn Arena in East Lansing, the No. 2 Spartans (20-3-3, 11-2-3 Big Ten) won the shootout 2-0 to increase their lead over the No. 4 Gophers (19-6-3, 10-4-2) in the conference standings to five points.
The teams also played to a 3-3 tie Dec. 13 at 3M Arena at Mariucci, and the Spartans won the shootout. They also won the next night, 5-3.
The Gophers lost a shootout for the 10th consecutive time Saturday, and they’re 2-17 in shootouts in Big Ten play since the league started in the 2013-14 season. They have not scored on 25 consecutive shootout attempts.
On Saturday, the Spartans’ Matt Basgall opened the scoring with 3 minutes, 49 seconds remaining in the first period.
The Gophers tied the game 1-1 on a goal by Jimmy Snuggerud six minutes into the second period, but the Spartans regained the lead less than two minutes later on a goal by Joey Larson.
