Hosts Jim Connelly and Ed Trefzger are joined by Wisconsin State Journal reporter and USCHO editor emeritus Todd D. Milewski to discuss the college hockey team he covers, the Wisconsin Badgers. Topics include the team’s play so far after a 7-1 start, the change in culture around the program, whether their No. 5 ranking is warranted, and getting crowds back into the Kohl Center. We also touch on Milewski’s article on neck guards.
