Director's Cup All-Sports Trophy coming down to the wire:

Gavin McKenna, who never would have been eligible to play college hockey before, and is the projected #1 pick in the 2026 NHL Draft, visited MSU yesterday, and is expected to announce between MSU and PSU soon.

PSU has the higher NIL package.  MSU returns the 2025 Hobey Baker (Hockey Heisman) winner, and Goalie of the Year along with 13 other NHL picks.

Either way, Adam Nightengale has earned every bit of his extension
