After a week off for the Notre Dame Men’s Hockey team, it was time to welcome in the Wisconsin Badgers. Coming into this past weekend’s games, the Irish had won a resounding 15 games in a row. They had also set the standard for coming into the B1G, with a twelve game winning streak. The previous record, set by Minnesota in 2013-2014, was 8-0-2. The Fighting Irish have definitely made their presence known in the new conference. Let’s drop the puck and review this weekend’s games.
