Montreal Canadiens top prospect Cole Caufield has already had an incredible season for the Wisconsin Badgers, but the accolades are about to start pouring in.

Caufield led the entire country in regular season scoring with 25 goals, nine more than anyone else, and 46 points which was two more than the next highest scorer.

The Badgers finished first in the Big Ten Conference standings, thanks to Caufield’s offensive heroics leading the way.

He has a chance to carry them much further in the coming weeks as the Big Ten playoffs begin on Sunday and the Badgers have earned a bye into the semifinals which will be played on Monday.
