Old Dog: That Weekend Left A Lot To Be Desired

Things didn’t work out very well for the Huskies this weekend, as they were swept in Mankato by Minnesota State.

With Michigan Tech temporarily out of action due to COVID issues on the team, the Old Dog spent his hockey-watching time last weekend surfing college hockey games in the western conferences.
