The Badgers have earned six straight ranked wins after sweeping No. 4 Michigan over the weekend. In Friday's barnburner, Owen Lindmark shined with the second goal of the game and then the final goal of the game to secure the 5-4 win. Mathieu De St. Phalle starred yet again for the Badgers on Saturday, assisting on the first goal, and then scoring the game-winner with just six seconds to go.
