EAST LANSING, Mich. It s only fitting the final minutes of Sun Devil Hockey s Valentine s Day showdown with Michigan State had its fair share of flare, as ASU thought they had won, had it taken away, then re-won the game with sophomore defenseman Jacob Semik s game-winning goal with 40 seconds remaining.
The Sun Devils (6-13-2) came out ready to go, scoring just 13 seconds into the opening period. After Chris Grando scored with five minutes remaining for the 2-1 lead, ASU ran out the clock and appeared to hold on to the 2-1 victory as the final horn sounded. However, officials reviewed a shot from Michigan State, who was completing the final two minutes of regulation on the power-play, and ruled it went in with 1:06 remaining to tie the game at two.

Typically they say the game is not over until the final whistle blows, but that was not the case in East Lansing for the Michigan State hockey team as they fell to the Arizona State Sun Devils 3-2 Sunday afternoon in late dramatic fashion.
Things could not have started off much worse for the Spartans, who were playing their first game in two weeks. After winning the opening draw, Arizona State carried the puck into the MSU defensive zone, fired a shot on net and then scored off a rebounded shot by senior forward Dominic Garcia just 13 seconds into the game.
