Highlights: #3 Gopher Men's Hockey Wins Border Battle Matchup at Wisconsin



The No. 3 Minnesota men’s hockey team erased a two-goal deficit and powered by Jimmy Snuggerud’s two goals, skated to a 3-2 victory on the road at Wisconsin Friday night from Kohl Center.

After falling behind by two goals early in the second period, the Golden Gophers (8-1-0 overall, 3-0-0 B1G) stormed back for the come-from-behind win over their rival Badgers (2-7-0 overall, 1-4-0 B1G). Minnesota scored the final three goals in three different facets of the game: shorthanded, on the power play and even strength. Goaltender Nathan Airey was pivotal down the stretch, helping the Maroon and Gold to their seventh-straight win.
