Leave it to Danton Cole to sum up this whole wild ride of a college hockey season with an axiom that neither oversimplifies nor underexplains:<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know what? Sports are an interesting thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes. Yes they are.<\/p>\n

Cole made the remark during his press conference following Michigan State\u2019s come-from-behind, redemption-producing 3-2 home win over Michigan last Saturday, the day following the Wolverines\u2019 9-0 thumping of the Spartans at Yost Ice Arena, Michigan State\u2019s worst loss in 27 years.<\/p>\n

In that 9-0 Michigan win, Thomas Bordeleau\u2019s goal at 5:08 in the first period held up to win the game and Johnny Beecher\u2019s goal a little over six minutes later knocked Drew DeRidder out of the Michigan State net. Seven different Wolverines scored in the thorough routing.<\/p>\n

Less than 24 hours later, DeRidder had his fifth win of the season against the Spartans\u2019 archrival, a 38-save performance that held Michigan State in a 2-1 game until Cole Krygier tied it up 2:02 to go in regulation and Josh Nodler scored the game winner with 37 seconds left on the clock.<\/p>\n

It was a stunning turnaround, the kind of atonement that sports fans love.<\/p>\n

Yes, a very interesting thing \u2013 and in a weekend full of interesting things in college hockey, but especially in the Big Ten.<\/p>\n

Every B1G series or series involving a Big Ten team ended in an outright split last weekend, each series providing more insight and perspective about how this unusual season may continue to unfold.<\/p>\n

Saturday night, the conference\u2019s other century-old archrivalry resumed when Wisconsin hosted Minnesota and delivered the first defeat of the season to the Golden Gophers, a 3-1 Wisconsin win that pulled the second-place Badgers three points closer to Minnesota.<\/p>\n

Until Sunday when the Gophers won the rematch 5-3. Of course.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like Wisconsin,\u201d said Minnesota coach Bob Motzko. \u201cI think they\u2019re a really, really good hockey team and I think they\u2019re going to be in it at the end of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wisconsin\u2019s Tony Granato returned the favor.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re as good of a college team as there is right now,” Granato said. “They were able to make more of their chances tonight. We were able to make more of our chances last night. And I think if you look at it, how hard both teams played, I think it probably deserved to be a split.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Columbus Friday night, Ohio State beat Penn State 6-3, but the Nittany Lions took Saturday\u2019s game 5-2. OSU assistant coach JB Bittner said that the difficulty in pulling off a sweep in college hockey comes from the parity in preparing for that second game.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou beat a team the first night, and you know the coach is all over them,” said Bittner. “There\u2019s video, there\u2019s meetings. To try and beat them again the next night, you have to play better than you did the night before. We played better, too, but they upped their game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Heading into the weekend, first-place Minnesota was eight points ahead of second-place Wisconsin, four points separated fourth-place Ohio State from last-place Penn State, and the Wolverines and Spartans were tied for fifth.<\/p>\n

At the end of the weekend, the only thing in the standing that changed was that the Buckeyes moved up to third place, one point ahead of Notre Dame because the Fighting Irish played nonconference opponent Arizona State.<\/p>\n

And the Irish split with the Sun Devils, too, coming from behind early in the third period of Saturday\u2019s 5-4 win and trailing for nearly the entirety of Sunday\u2019s 5-3 loss. Arizona State\u2019s Matthew Kopperud scored two goals 1:58 apart late in the third on a major penalty to Notre Dame\u2019s Colin Theisen, but the Irish scored with Theisen in the box, too, a shorthander six seconds after Kopperud\u2019s second marker.<\/p>\n

That win brings Arizona State\u2019s record to 5-9-2, all against Big Ten opponents. If the Sun Devils were B1G conference members, they\u2019d have the fifth-best win percentage in the league.<\/p>\n

What does all this mean for the Big Ten? Penn State\u2019s Guy Gadowsky thinks that it means that B1G Hockey is producing consistently good, evenly-matched hockey.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can tell you it\u2019s better than any other conference in the nation and that\u2019s been over the past few years,” said Gadowsky. “That\u2019s what we expect this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, because of the COVID situation and what teams were allowed to get on the ice early and what weren\u2019t, I think at the start of the season there was much greater variance that what we\u2019re used to, but now that everybody\u2019s been on the ice a little longer and gotten a chance to play together, I think that margin between victory and defeat is getting smaller and smaller and I think that\u2019s going to continue.\u201d<\/p>\n

After the Badgers split with the Gophers, Granato said, \u201cGames are mistakes. The team that makes the fewest mistakes generally wins. I thought it was a great hockey weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes. Yes it was.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s got to burn in you<\/h4>\n

In spite of the resources available to Big Ten programs and the high visibility of the conference, the league has been emerging since its inception in 2013.<\/p>\n

When the league formed, several teams were rebuilding programs that struggled in their previous conferences, Penn State was brand new, and aspects of several programs seemed like they were in a state of flux.<\/p>\n

Seven years later, the league is far more competitive and perceived to be tougher nationally \u2013 even more solid than in 2017-18, when the conference placed three teams in the Frozen Four field. Part of the reason for that is the improvement in individual programs. The Golden Gophers, once rebuilding, appear to have arrived. Near the other end of the standings, the Spartans are continuing their rebuild.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like this about this group. Every year we\u2019ve done a little more winning, but they\u2019ve got a good winner\u2019s mentality where there\u2019s a certain calmness,\u201d said Cole.<\/p>\n

That Michigan State could play a competitive game after losing 9-0 to Michigan surprises no one. That the Spartans could pull off a nearly last-minute victory raises some eyebrows.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was good intestinal fortitude, they kind of knew what they had to do, they got the next one and found a way to get the third one,\u201d said Cole. \u201cI like the way they handle themselves that way. They\u2019ve done that a few times this year. They\u2019ve got a little extra in them when they want to dig down.\u201d<\/p>\n

That ability to dig down, especially when playing their program\u2019s fiercest and longest-standing rivals, is something that Cole sees as essential to playing for Michigan State. It goes back to what he experienced himself playing for the Spartans in the 1980s and something he wanted to share with his players before Saturday\u2019s win over Michigan.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought about a speech my sophomore year by Donny McSween, one of the best captains I ever played with and definitely one of the best captains ever here at Michigan State,\u201d said Cole. \u201cWe had lost at home to Michigan and we didn\u2019t lose to them that much back then, but it was a bad loss.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cole said that he couldn\u2019t recall the exact words of the speech in 1986-97, his sophomore season when McSween was the senior captain, but that \u201cit was more the emotion of it\u201d that he wanted to impart to his players last weekend.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main point was, \u2018Hey, that\u2019s got to burn. That\u2019s got to burn in you, not just for tomorrow and the next week or this season, but that\u2019s the rest of your life. That\u2019s got to burn in you,\u2019 and that\u2019s what we talked about,\u201d said Cole.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat got me, and I\u2019ve been a Spartan my whole life and that made an impact on me. That\u2019s hard to do. That\u2019s how important these games [with Michigan] are and how hard you have to play.\u201d<\/p>\n

In continuing to build Michigan State from what seemed like the bottom up, creating the fundamental desire to \u201cdig down\u201d \u2013 especially against the Wolverines \u2013 seems as important to Cole as teaching any on-ice system, any playmaking skill.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a tough guy to impress,\u201d said Cole after the 3-2 win. “And they did tonight. That was a gutsy bunch in there. Good Spartans.\u201d<\/p>\n

And better Big Ten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
