The University of Michigan’s men’s ice hockey program has released its full slate for the 2026‑27 Big Ten season, outlining a competitive mix of home and away matchups that will test the Wolverines from October through March.
The campaign kicks off with a three‑game series at Ohio State from October 29 through November 1, setting the tone for a schedule that blends early conference battles with a series of high‑profile road trips.
A highly anticipated home series against Penn State follows in mid‑November, with games scheduled for the 12th, 13th and 15th, giving Michigan fans a chance to cheer on their team in Ann Arbor.
The Wolverines will also host a home‑and‑home series with Michigan State from November 19 to 22, splitting the contests between the two storied programs and promising intense on‑ice rivalry.
December brings a showdown with Wisconsin at Yost Arena from the 3rd to the 6th, after which the team heads out for a pair of road series against Minnesota in early January and then travels to Notre Dame for a weekend in mid‑January.
The schedule continues with a home series against Ohio State the week of January 21, a second meeting with Michigan State in early February, and a stretch of games that includes trips to Madison and a final home stand against Minnesota in late February.
The regular season will wrap up with a two‑game series at Penn State on March 4 and 5, after which the Wolverines will look ahead to the Big Ten tournament and the next chapter of their campaign.
