Last season was spectacular, but this year's team will have to take the torch and find a niche of its own. :raig Murray Height: 6-U Weight: 175 Class: Freshman Hometown: Penticton, Brit- ish Columbia rafed by the Montreal Caeens nmers NHL Draft. 1998-99 Michigan hock Oct. 11 Lake Superior Oct. 16.17 'Niagara Oct. 23-24 Alaska-Fairbanks Oct. 30 Bowling Green Oct. 31 Northern Michigan Nov 13 Alaska-Fairbanks Nov. 14 Notre Dame Nov. 20 Michigan State Nov. 21 Notre Dame Nov. 27 Minnesota Nov. 29 Wisconsin Dec. 4 Miami (Ohio) Dec. 5 Bowling Green Dec. 11 Northern Michigan Dec. 26 Michigan Tech (GLI) Dec. 27 Michigan State/ Northern Michigan ( Jan. 2 Ohio State Jan. 8-9 Ferris State Jan. 15 Ferris State Jan. 16 Westem Michigan Jan. 22 Bowling Green Jan. 23 Ohio State Jan. 29 Michigan State Jan. 0 ... it, e1. 6Lake Superior Feb. 6 Ohio State Feb. 13 Western Michigan Feb. 19 Western Michigan Feb. 20 Michigan State Feb. 26-27 Miami (Ohio) March 5 Lake Superior March 6 Northern Michigan March 12-13 CCHA first round March 19-20 CCHA championships March 26-27 NCAA West Regional Apr. 1-3 NCAA Final Four From turning triple-toe-loops to punishing oppos- ing teams' forwards, Bubba Berenzweig has always had a flair all his own. With a freshman as the starting goaltender, the defense will have to be solid in front of the net. And Michigan looks like it has its deepest defense in years. After losing Bill Muckalt and Matt Herr to gradua- tion, where is Michigan is going to find its goal- scoring punch this season? In high school, Josh Langfeld envisioned himself hitting game-winning home runs. But those plans have changed. Now, he's a star on the ice, not the diamond.
