UW hockey has seen it all this season
MADISON, Wis. Mark Zengerle sat in his apartment on a late November night with his three roommates, scrolling the college hockey rankings on a computer. He scrolled. And scrolled. And scrolled some more, until he reached the bottom of the page.

Badgers keep hope alive with sweep of Nebraska-Omaha
The proper reaction to Saturday's result between Wisconsin and Nebraska-Omaha? How about "Where has this been all year?"
No. 16 Wisconsin used a huge surge of offense in blowing out No. 13 UNO, earning the sweep with a 6-2 win, and more importantly keeping some slim hopes for a conference title and NCAA birth alive.
All it took was one good period of play...

Instead, what gave in this one was UNO's defense and Wisconsin's power play defense as the Badgers won a wild one, 4-3, over the Mavericks...

Wisconsin's Michael Mersch will not be suspended
I just got off of the phone with Greg Shepherd, head of WCHA officials, and this is what I know. Mersch came off of the bench on a line change and would have actually would’ve had to enter the altercation in question to be suspended. So, if Mersch had jumped off of the Wisconsin players been and entered the altercation in the Wisconsin end, Mersch would have then been suspended...
UW and UND scrum .59 seconds left
The Badgers and UND exchange pleasantries at the end of the game. I don't think these two teams were asking each other where they were going to meet after the game. Badger forward Michael Mersch needs to be suspended and I expect that he will when the WCHA reviews this film. There is no way to defend Mersch's actions, that's not acceptable in any league. There is conclusive...
