Michigan State hockey is gearing up for their opening round of the NCAA Tournament, where they are set to take on the Cornell Big Red in Toledo.
It is no secret that a big part of the success the Spartans are having comes behind the play of goaltender Trey Augustine, a 2023 second round pick of the Detroit Red Wings. Augustine has done so much for Michigan State, and Team USA, that he hopes to continue that trend for his hometown Red Wings one day.
The decision maker for the Red Wings, and who has a lot of control on Augustine's future, is Red Wing legend and general manager Steve Yzerman. Yzerman thinks very highly of the Spartan netminder, and has had a close eye on the play of Augustine the past two seasons.
On Thursday, according to a report from Rachel Hopmayer of CBS Detroit, Yzerman is going to be in attendance, live in Toledo for the Spartans first round matchup with Cornell.
This will be a great opportunity for the Spartans in totality to show off their skill to Yzerman, but also a chance for Augustine to talk to and impress the Red Wings GM.
