The Wisconsin men’s hockey team will host the Alaska Nanooks in a two-game series this Friday and Saturday in the Kohl Center. These games are the third and fourth game of an eight-game home stretch in Madison for the Badgers.
The Nanooks (7-13-4, 5-11-4 WCHA) just traded games in a series at Northern Michigan and travel to Madison in the hopes of surpassing the .500 mark in away games for the first time this season. Wisconsin is the first non-conference opponent Alaska has faced since late October, giving extra incentive to win a few in this late-season matchup.
