McKayla Zilisch entered the weekend with just one assist on the season, equal to half her statistical output from her first year in Madison.
On Sunday, she defied all expectations and put on one of the most impressive performances of any player in #Badgers history.

"Iowa fans don’t even chirp at me online anymore. Minnesota fans didn’t say anything to me on Saturday that couldn’t be defined as pleasant...
"Indiana football fans treated us like Wisconsin fans treat every other fan base in women’s hockey!"

Perhaps a bit lost (somehow) in all the hullabaloo of the #Badgers' 17-2 victory is that UW defender Caroline Harvey extended her point streak to 15 games, setting a new career-best scoring streak.
She currently leads the country in scoring with 37 points through 18 games.

Somehow, a Kirsten Simms hat trick is the second-most notable hat trick from today's #Badgers women's hockey game.
Nevertheless, here's how the senior became just the eighth player in program history to log four hat tricks in a career.

Three shots, three goals for McKayla Zilisch.
The Appleton, Wisconsin native has tied the program record for goals in a period with three, becoming the first #Badgers player to do so in 14 years.
Before today, the senior had scored just one collegiate goal during her rookie year in Bemidji.

Since 2024, the #Badgers are 0-11 in games when power conference opponents score first.
Among the laundry list of problems Wisconsin has, its inability to fight back from a deficit is pretty high up there.

Luke Fickell has won 16 games over three seasons leading the #Badgers.
Probably better than a coin flip's chance that Fickell needs until at least October of year four to match, let alone surpass, Gary Anderson's 19 wins in two years at UW.

How on Earth is bringing Hunter Simmons to the ground under the weight of two defenders on a long dead play not unnecessary roughness? By the very obvious letter of the law, that's what the penalty is.

Earlier this week, I asked Jackson Acker if there had been a moment that stood out to him from his games against the Gophers. He recalled a 28-yard reception in the 2023 meeting but admitted, "it all sort of just blurs together."
Well, he's got a standout moment now.
