The University of Wisconsin men’s hockey team (13-18-1, 6-15-1-1 Big Ten) took on the Arizona State University Sun Devils (22-11-3) in the season’s final home series at the Kohl Center. Riding a seven-game win streak, the Sun Devils entered the Kohl Center on Friday night expecting to do nothing less than continue their winning ways.
In their second straight season with 20 or more wins, the Sun Devils weren’t able to secure a win in either game, delaying their run at an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament. In front of a sold-out Kohl Center crowd, the Badgers knocked down the Sun Devils and improved their own postseason potential in the Big Ten Conference playoffs.
