EAST LANSING, Mich. — Landon Slaggert and Alex Steeves scored and Dylan St. Cyr stopped all 27 shots he faced to lead the Fighting Irish to a 2-0 win at Michigan State on Friday night at Munn Ice Arena.
Slaggert’s goal was his first career game-winner, while St. Cyr’s shutout was his second of the season and the fourth of his career. Matt Hellickson finished with a pair of assists.
“I thought we played a patient game,” head coach Jeff Jackson said after the win. “They’re a tough team to play against and they are good defensively and don’t give you a lot, so you have to play a patient game. We waited for our chances and scored a couple timely goals and Dylan played well in goal and gave us a chance to win.”
With the victory, Jackson moved into sole possession of 11th place for all-time wins (527) at the men’s NCAA DI level as he had been tied with George Gwozdecky.
