A pair of goals from Simon Tassy pushed No. 14 Wisconsin past No. 1 Minnesota 3-2 Friday night at 3M Arena at Mariucci in Minneapolis, Minn., to sweep the nation’s top team for the first time since 2014.<\/p>\n

Though Wisconsin struck first, the Gophers battled back, tying the game twice throughout the evening, until a late third-period goal from Tassy gave the Badgers the lead for good. <\/p>\n

Tassy had a standout performance, scoring a power-play goal and notching an assist in addition to his game-winning tally. Christian Fitzgerald also had a multi-point night with two assists.<\/p>\n

Kyle McClellan continued to stand tall in net, stopping 29 shots for the win.<\/p>\n
