The Minnesota Gophers hockey team’s quest for their second straight Big Ten regular season title is on hold after a 3-1 loss on Saturday night to the Wisconsin Badgers inside Kohl center to split the series in Madison.
The Gophers’ next chance to do so is against Penn State next weekend, where they just need one win. The Maroon & Gold (15-4-1, 21-8-1) also snapped their eight-game streak without a regulation loss. The last one came in a 3-0 shutout loss to St. Cloud State back on Jan. 7.
The positive in the loss?
