Despite 39 shots, Miami blanked by MSU
Unlike most games the past few seasons, Miami had no problem generating shots. Unfortunately for the RedHawks, none of the 39 they fired on Saturday hit twine. No. 16 Michigan State's Dylan St. Cyr stopped all of them, as the Spartans won 4-0 at Cady Arena to earn the series sweep. MSU (11-4-1) won both … Continue reading Despite 39 shots, Miami blanked by MSU
Home woes continue as Miami falls to MSU
Miami might want to consider moving scheduled home games off campus. Michigan State scored three times in the first period and rode that lead to a 5-3 win at Cady Arena on Friday.

Bad start dooms Miami in loss to CC
OXFORD, Ohio -- The Zambroni crew probably could've saved time by not resurfacing Miami's offensive zone after the first period. Thanks to an extremely slow start, the RedHawks fell behind by a goal early and never recovered, losing 2-1 to Colorado College at Cady Arena on Saturday. Miami (4-6-2) is winless in six games since … Continue reading Bad start dooms Miami in loss to CC

ProHawks: Smith, Martinez hit milestone together
Reilly Smith and Alec Martinez weren't teammates in Oxford but they have played together for several years with Vegas, so it's appropriate they both dressed for their 700th NHL game the same night. And Smith scored twice in that contest, including the game winner. In Toronto, Smith's hometown. In overtime. It gets even better: He … Continue reading ProHawks: Smith, Martinez hit milestone together
Miami strengths, issues after 0-4 league start

WMU power play torches Miami
