After impressive wins against Alaska and honing in on their fundamentals, Wisconsin men’s hockey will return to the Kohl Center this weekend to host conference leader Michigan.

While the Wolverines have an impressive track record this season (17-4-4 overall, 8-2-2 conference) compared to the Badgers (6-12-6 overall, 1-7-2 conference), University of Wisconsin head coach Mike Eaves isn’t expecting a blowout in either game and hopes to contain a talented Michigan team.

Practice this week was held at game speed, and every moment spent on the ice was directed at creating an environment the Badgers could expect against Michigan.
