Eamon McAdam carries Penn State men's hockey to win over Wisconsin

Shortly after tying the game in the first period, Wisconsin’s Luke Kunin parked himself to the right of Penn State’s net and received a pass from linemate Cameron Hughes.

Eamon McAdam, caught on the other side of the ice, extended his arm and used just the paddle of his stick to block Kunin’s shot.

The newly named starter made 26 saves for Penn State (20-9-4-0, 9-6-1-1) en route to the Nittany Lions’ 2-1 victory over the Badgers — the Lions’ 10th conference win of the season, tying a program record set last season.

Guy Gadowsky announced on Monday that McAdam would start both games against the Badgers (6-17-8-0, 1-12-4-2), putting an end to the two-goalie rotation, as the Lions get ready for postseason play.
