Roundup: Wisconsin, Minnesota Reeling Into Break; Notre Dame Remains Perfect in Big Ten

CHN Staff Report

A season of great promise is in danger of slipping away from Wisconsin.

After a 6-2 start to this season, coming on the heels of just missing the NCAAs in Tony Granato's first season as head coach a year ago, there was a lot of optimism in Madison. But since then, the Badgers are 4-7-2 after getting swept this weekend at home by Notre Dame.

Friday, the Badgers blew a 2-0 third-period lead. Saturday was more even until, again, the Irish dominated the third and won going away, 6-2.
