Wisconsin and Denver faced off at the Xcel Energy Center in the Third Place Game of the WCHA Final Five. Wisconsin won by a 6-3 score in a game they controlled from the opening faceoff. Ben Street, Derek Stepan, and Blake Geoffrion scored for the Badgers in the first period to take a commanding lead after one period. Denver draw to within two goals :25 into the period, but Wisconsin scored two more mid-way through the period to take a 5-1 lead into the third. Denver drew to within two goals, but let Wisconsin score their sixth goal with 3:44 remaining in the game.
Note: Cody Goloubef drew a one game suspension from the WCHA for his hit on SCSU's Nick Oslund. He left his feet and extended his hands on the hit. He sat out this afternoon's game vs. Denver.
