After a <a href=\"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/michigan-state-hockey-wild-comeback-win-michigan\/\">thrilling comeback win against Michigan<\/a> last weekend, the Spartans still had some last-second drama in them. MSU once again trailed its opponent, this time No. 9 Minnesota, in the third period on Friday night 2-0. That, however, changed quickly as the Spartans <a href=\"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/michigan-state-hockey-beats-minnesota-in-last-second-thriller\/\">scored three third-period goals to win the game<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The game-winning goal in Friday night\u2019s matchup was a must-see moment for any Spartan fan, as it once again sent Munn Ice Arena into a frenzy.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Daniel Russell scores with 4 seconds left and Griffin Jurecki\u2019s gets his first to complete the Spartan comeback. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bwmsl7gGDY\">pic.twitter.com\/bwmsl7gGDY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Michigan State Hockey (@MSU_Hockey) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MSU_Hockey\/status\/1751063666403774659?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 27, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Spartans win on last-second thriller<\/h3>\n<p>After trailing 2-0, the Spartans scored two goals to tie the game in the third period. It looked like the game was heading to overtime, but <a href=\"https:\/\/msuspartans.com\/sports\/mens-ice-hockey\/roster\/daniel-russell\/13183\">Daniel Russel<\/a> had other ideas. The sophomore forward slotted home the loose puck in front of the net with only four seconds left to win the game for the Spartans.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">You want drama?

This group showed their resilience last week against Michigan and they did it once again on Friday night against the No. 9 team in the country.<\/p>\n<h3>Big Ten hockey standings<\/h3>\n<p>Heading into this weekend, MSU sat atop the Big Ten hockey standings. They had a four-point lead over Wisconsin, but the Badgers had played two fewer games than the Spartans. You earn three points in hockey for a win, so MSU did not have control of the title race heading into Friday night\u2019s game.<\/p>\n<p>That isn\u2019t the case anymore. Michigan did the Spartans a huge favor by beating Wisconsin on Friday 5-1. This extended the Spartans&#8217; lead over the second-place Badgers to seven points. That gave MSU complete control of their destiny in the Big Ten championship race once again.<\/p>\n<p>The Spartans unfortunately lost on Saturday to Minnesota to split the series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Highlight of the weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":12946,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[177],"tags":[234,189,504],"class_list":["post-12883","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-more-sports","tag-michigan-state-hockey","tag-michigan-state-spartans","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12883","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12883"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12883\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/12946"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12883"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12883"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12883"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
