1. The Wisconsin Seriesstarts at 0:50
Not a great weekend! Trying to use these exclamations to hide our disappointment! Michigan was blindsided by a nice Wisconsin curveball on Friday and could not recover. Strauss Mann got another start and struggled for two periods before owning the third. Michigan gave up a breakaway goal after a man came out of the penalty box in overtime for the second straight game.
On Saturday, Michigan played much better but some less than timely defensive lapses and a bad game from Lavigne put Michigan in a situation where they would have to outscore Wisconsin, and they almost did. Another overtime loss, and another game ending that only NCAA hockey can provide. Michigan somehow gave up two overtime goals on Saturday! Positives: Mike Pastujov was the player of the weekend, Michigan mostly played very good defense on Saturday.

We touch on Michigan's season. They finished below .500. Briefly talk about the first round B10 matchups and get in-depth with Michigan-Minnesota. Season series favored Michigan aside from the final scores, seems to be a favorable matchup. David and Anthony give their predictions for the weekend. Spoiler alert: it involves watching a Canucks game next week.
If that last line is too dark I am fine with changing it
