Michigan hockey is off to a 1-1 start after a two-game series to open up the 2024-25 season against Minnesota State at Yost Ice Arena, but now the Wolverines are on the road in Tempe for two games against Arizona State. And though it’s sunny and temperate in southeast Michigan, the Wolverines hockey social media posted about how beautiful it is to sit outside for team meetings in Arizona.
For some reason, that elicited something of a comeback from the Wolverines’ next opponent, the Sun Devils, who posted ‘exceptional for you, normal for us.’ But you know that wasn’t going to be the end of it.
Because Michigan hockey made sure it had the final word with this gem of a response.
Kinda like making a Frozen Four 🤷‍♂️ https://t.co/fO0YRShm3k

Absolutely epic and there’s no coming back from that if you’re the Sun Devils (on social media — on the ice is another story).
With 28 appearances in the Frozen Four, no other school has more than Michigan. And with zero Frozen Four appearances, Arizona State is tied with schools that don’t even have a hockey program. So a pithy comeback on social media may be one thing that could garner some attention, but if you come at the king, you best not miss.
