Wisconsin's Caroline Harvey is the WCHA defender of the week for the third time this season and the 13th time in her four-year career. She had six points last weekend.

Wisconsin's Kirsten Simms is the WCHA forward of the week after she reached 200 career points with a five-point series at St. Cloud State.

Ohio State coach Steve Rohlik wasn't happy about the interference penalty called on Buckeyes forward Thomas Weis with 13.6 seconds left in regulation that led to Wisconsin's OT goal. Weis collided with UW's Grady Deering in the neutral zone, and the play was reviewed for a major.

Good evening from the Kohl Center, where No. 7 Wisconsin has shuffled its forward lines for the second game of a series against Ohio State (6 p.m., B1G+, 1310 AM). Oliver Tulk moves to right wing as Tyson Dyck and Bruno Idžan enter the lineup after Friday's 5-1 loss.

Hello from the Kohl Center, where the Badgers play Ohio State just after 7 (B1G+, 1310 AM).

UW is without two of its top six defensemen: Joe Palodichuk and Luke Osburn are out with illnesses. Weston Knox is in the lineup for the first time this season.

All 26 Badgers women's hockey players on the ice for a Tuesday practice (the one open to the media on game weeks) for the the first time since *checks notes* Sept. 30.

Wisconsin's Caroline Harvey is the WCHA defender of the month for October, joining Ohio State's Hilda Svensson (forward, rookie) and Minnesota's Hannah Clark (goalie) in the montly awards. It's the seventh time that Harvey has won a WCHA monthly award in her four-year career.

Wisconsin senior Claire Enright is the WCHA forward of the week after she moved up to the top line to replace the injured Kirsten Simms and had two goals and three assists in a sweep of Minnesota State.
October 27, 2025 at 7:17 PM
Badgers G Eli Pulver didn't dress Friday — lower-body injury, suffered in practice. He's day to day, Mike Hastings said.

It brought up the new world of roster caps and that UW can't add anyone beyond the 26, a tricky spot with goalie injuries. Hastings: "We've got to fix that."

Here's Mark Johnson's answer today about the status of Kirsten Simms, who was injured in Saturday's game against Union.

What a win for Larry from Sun Prairie in the Daschund Dash before the Badgers men's hockey game. Not a lot of competition, really, but a championship effort.
October 16, 2025 at 11:45 PM
Badgers seniors Kirsten Simms (forward) and Caroline Harvey (defender) were among the WCHA players of the week announced today. Each had four points in a sweep of No. 4 Minnesota Duluth.

Badgers forward Christian Fitzgerald is the Big Ten's third star of the week after he scored four goals and added an assist in last weekend's road sweep of Lindenwood.
October 7, 2025 at 3:31 PM
Wisconsin's Laila Edwards is the WCHA defender of the week, which is something I would have been really confused about typing two seasons ago.

Badgers goalie Ava McNaughton joins her, Minnesota forward Abbey Murphy and Ohio State forward Hilda Svensson in the weekly WCHA awards.

Hello from LaBahn Arena, where No. 1 Wisconsin drops its 2025 NCAA championship banner from the rafters before playing Maine at 7. Laila Edwards is back on D tonight for the Badgers, giving Maggie Scannell a spot on the second line.

Wisconsin's series at Lindenwood this weekend has been on the books for a few years, but it added an interesting angle when the Lions named Keith Fisher as coach in June. UW coach Mike Hastings had Fisher as an assistant with USHL Omaha from 2000-05.

Here's Hastings this week:

I don't think it'll surprise anyone that the Badgers' first-round opponent in the Holiday Face-Off is Lake Superior State, leaving Boston College and Western Michigan for the other semi.

Order of games TBD, which is smart on an NFL Sunday.

There are 24 former Badgers players listed on NHL training camp rosters, up from 20 last season.

The additions compared to 2024: Ahcan, Kehrer, Laatsch, LaBate, Mosley, Stange, Urdahl.

Those who came off the list: Kyle McClellan, Craig Smith, Ryan Suter.

From available info, 14 of the 26 players on the upcoming season's Badgers roster are at NHL team development camps or will be. Former UW players listed so far also are included below.

Sounds like Tyson Dyck (OTT) is missing this year's camp after going the last three years.
