Four points for Michael Hage tonight

Bowling Green gave Michigan a tough time in the second game, following a 7-2 loss the day before.

Tonight, they fought until the very end, even leading 2-0 at one point in the game, and lost by just one goal (4-3).

You can sense that the Habs' hope is much more deeply invested, and with the departure of T.J. Hughes, among others, his responsibilities have increased significantly. It makes his decision to stay in school a little easier to understand.

Keep in mind that if Michigan makes it to the Frozen Four and wins the tournament, Hage won't be able to play a regular-season game with the CH. He could, however, play in the playoffs. We'll have to wait and see.

Hage, Landon DuPont, and Michigan will be back in action next Friday against Alaska Anchorage. Is another great night in store for Hage?

And speaking of DuPont, in his first two NCAA games, he has recorded two assists.

In a nutshell

– Wow.

– Patrick Kane believes the Sabres should have beaten the Habs in the last playoffs.

– Great footage.

– Good luck to him.
