Saturday Night Pre-Game

We're back for the second night of a two-game WCHA series between the Wisconsin Badgers and Minnesota Golden Gophers. Friday night the teams skated to a draw in front of 10,079 fans at Mariucci arena.

Only one change in the Badger lineup for Saturday night as Joel Rumpel gets the start between the pipes. Landon Peterson was phenomenal last night for UW, but the coaching staff needed to get Rumpel in there after an off weekend last week.

Mark Zengerle is still out for Wisconsin with a finger injury, and Nic Kerdiles is serving game number eight of his ten game suspension tonight.

Game time tonight is 8 PM for TV purposes. You can catch the game live on the Big Ten Network.

I'll have between period analysis here on the blog, and you can also follow me on twitter during the game @AndyJohnsonB5Q.
