The Badgers welcomed in the No. 7 Minnesota Golden Gophers this weekend to the Kohl Center for a weekend series in a rivalry matchup that never fails to disappoint, regardless of their standing in the NCAA hockey world.
Wisconsin has improved mightily from a year ago, over .500 and already surpassing their win total from last season. The Gophers entered the series riding a six-game winning streak and got the best of the Badgers Friday night to make it seven straight.
In a packed Kohl Center, there was a lot of offense as both teams scored three goals a piece and gave the great fans of this rivalry game an extra period.
