MADISON, Wis. – In its first conference game of the season, the Wisconsin men’s hockey team fell to the Ohio State Buckeyes, 2-1, in overtime on Friday night at the Kohl Center. Despite the overtime loss, the Badgers still gain a point in the Big Ten standings.
Wisconsin (1-1-0, 0-1-0 Big Ten) opened the scoring early in the first period on the power play, but the Buckeyes (2-0-1, 1-0-0 Big Ten) found the back of the net with 12.9 seconds remaining in the period to tie the game at one. Neither team scored again until 17 seconds remained in overtime when OSU lit the lamp to earn the extra conference point.
How it Happened
The Badgers got on the board first 3:35 into the first period after Ryland Mosley capitalized on a five-minute major power play. Deep in Wisconsin’s defensive zone, freshman forward Gavin Morrissey gave the puck to graduate student Mosley who started a three-on-three rush down the ice. As he entered OSU territory, he passed to his left to find sophomore forward Quinn Finley. Finley made a pass from the middle of the zone to Mosley up by the net who tipped it by Buckeye goaltender Logan Terness for his second goal of the season.
