Coming off a near shutout over the Golden Gophers on their own turf, the No. 11 University of Wisconsin men’s hockey team (12-7, 10-5 Big Ten) is looking to finish what they started at LaBahn, and execute a sweep over the No. 2 University of Minnesota (15-4, 11-4).
The first win over the Golden Gophers put the Badgers just a game behind their opponent in the race for the Big Ten title, and adding another victory will solidify their chances. After scoring within 64 seconds at Mariucci Arena, Minnesota quickly found that Badger forward Cole Caufield’s hot streak is nearly impossible to extinguish.
