This game between Michigan State and North Dakota will be the 2026 U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame game. Faceoff time has not yet been revealed at this time.
There was a report from a few years ago of these two teams meeting in the Lone Star State but we were waiting for this to be finalized. Now, we know that it has and we have a massive non-conference Michigan State hockey game to look forward to on Halloween.
