The number one raking continues to be a bit of a curse as, for the third straight weekend, the nation’s top team falls.<\/p>\n

This time it was the high-flying Michigan offense that was completely shutdown by No. 13 Penn State, as the Nittany Lions held the Wolverines off the board in a 3-0 victory.<\/p>\n

Penn State dominated the possession game, putting 49 shots on Michigan goaltender Noah West, beating him twice. On the other end, Michigan was able to muster just 17 shots, all of which were stopped by Liam Souliere who posted his second-consecutive shutout.<\/p>\n

Ture Linden got Penn State on the board at 7:18 of the second period, scoring what remained as the only goal of the game until late in the third period. Ashton Calder gave the Nittany Lions some breathing room at 12:38 of the third and Xander Lamppa put the game away with a shorthanded empty-net goal with 2:49 remaining.<\/p>\n
