Looks like the USHL East Division final is drawing the big hitters.
Earlier this week, Kid Rock appeared on Muskegon Lumberjack social media saying “Go Lumberjacks!” The Detroit music superstar appeared with Muskegon captain Dylan Wendt for the roughly ten second spot.

Muskegon seems especially fired up about this series, as these two teams have been the class of the East in recent years. While Muskegon favors the same wide open, 80s style hockey as Chicago, it was their defense that dominated the opening round. The Jacks gave up just three goals in their two game sweep of Green Bay, and even their playoff t-shirts read “Watch us grind.”
And grinding is the type of hockey Michigan loves. Who can forget the grind line of Darren McCarty, Kris Draper, and Kirk Maltby? Or McCarty’s band Grinder? The term grind has become a Michigan proud point, walk through Ann Arbor any Saturday night and you will see all kinds of shirts using the word grind in different instances.
Safe to say, this series should be a great break from the daily grind.
