The last time Ohio State and Wisconsin met, the Badgers erased a two-goal Buckeye lead to force overtime. On Friday the Bucks returned the favor. A third period rally secured a B1G point for the home team.
Nick Schilkey staked Ohio State to an early lead. The Buckeyes’ leading scorer slipped behind the Wisconsin defense where he redirected a perfect pass from Matt Weis past Badger goalie Matt Jurusik. It was OSU’s first shot on goal in the game.
Wisconsin knotted the score by taking advantage of a fortunate bounce. The puck came to Luke Kunin in the slot.
