An goal by Brook Caufield two minutes into overtime gave the Wisconsin men’s hockey team a 3-2 win over Yale Tuesday night.
The first-round game in the Holiday Face-Off was played at the Fiserv Forum.
Jared Moe had 19 saves for the Badgers – including six of them in a 40-second stretch of the first period when the Bulldogs were bringing some pressure.
Caufield’s shot beat Yale goaltender and Sun Prairie native Nathan Reid.
Wisconsin meets Providence tonight (December 29th) for the Face-Off championship.
The holiday tournament is returning to Milwaukee for the first time in 19 years.
