Super Weekend – For Hockey » Brats & Beer

Before we get to the big game on Sunday, there’s plenty of other stuff going on to get yourself warmed up after a long week. The Badgers hockey team will try and turn things around when they travel to Duluth to face the UMD Bulldogs. UW and Minnesota-Duluth are both tied with Denver atop the WCHA standings with records of 13-5-2, but Wisconsin needs to snap out of their funk and end their current four game slide. It won’t be easy, though, against a Bulldogs team that leads the league in scoring with 73 goals.

The ISU hockey team, meanwhile, hasn’t lost in six contests and will try to extend that streak this weekend at home against Missouri State. The Ice Bears are currently in second place in the Mid-America Collegiate Hockey Association with a 12-4-3 record and ranked 10th in the ACHA Division II Central Region, so you can’t overlook them, especially when you’re running up to the CSCHL tourney in a couple weeks.
