Ohio State men's hockey just won a thrilling overtime game against the Michigan Wolverines in the semifinal of the Big Ten tournament, defeating the Wolverines 3-2 in sudden death overtime. Our own Aubrey Nelson will have a recap for you, but please, please don't look to the Big Ten's social media team, because they seem to be somewhat confused about what just transpired.

We all make mistakes on social media. Hell, I just did today. But a good rule of thumb when concerning a giant rivalry game against two storied programs is to make sure the right team won.
This was a thrilling, exciting victory on home ice against the best possible opponent to beat. And it's even more fun when we can pull out a Dewey Defeats Truman reference. By the way, here's what an accurate Tweet about tonight's game looks like:
Buckeyes WIN!
