Although nine members of the men’s hockey team are not American — Thanksgiving for the six Canadians was in October — the team still plans to have a big dinner after Thursday’s practice.

“That’s what’s special — we’re going to have practice,” coach Guy Gadowsky joked, later adding it didn’t matter where anyone on the team was from. “Everybody loves Thanksgiving.”

The Nittany Lions host Michigan State on Friday and Saturday.
