After a long eight months full of uncertainty, finally, today is the day. It’s gameday. The University of Wisconsin men’s hockey team returns to action tonight in South Bend, Indiana to take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Here’s how the two squads matchup ahead of this pivotal opening weekend series.

Both teams will have new goalies to open the season. Wisconsin will be turning to grad transfer Robbie Beydoun while Notre Dame will more than likely be turning to sophomore Ryan Bischel. While Beydoun is replacing a goaltending group that was injury-riddled and inconsistent, Bischel is replacing one of the better goalies in Notre Dame history.
