Wisconsin men’s hockey defeats Minnesota 6-0

The No. 1 Wisconsin men’s hockey team defeated the No. 18/17 Minnesota Golden Gophers 6-0 at 3M Arena at Mariucci. The loss snapped Minnesota’s six-game unbeaten streak and marked the Gophers' first home loss of the season.

The game remained competitive early on, but Wisconsin secured a decisive advantage during the second period. The Badgers scored three goals, including two on the power play, within a 2:25 span. Minnesota’s struggles with discipline proved costly, as Wisconsin capitalized on three man-advantage opportunities.

Earlier in the match, video reviews overturned two potential Minnesota goals: one where the puck did not cross the goal line and another involving a goaltender interference call.
