UNIVERSITY PARKThe Penn State mens hockey team is seeking to make a statement.
This is the weekend to do it, against a team that just made a big one of its own.
The Nittany Lions host No. 17 Minnesota for two major Big Ten games this weekend, meeting at 6:30 p.m. Friday and 5 p.m. Saturday at Pegula Ice Arena, as both seek to shake up a logjam atop the conference standings.
