Christian Fitzgerald’s OT goal caps wild win for Wisconsin men’s hockey over No. 14 Michigan
The Wisconsin men’s hockey team refused to go down for the count Saturday.
The third-ranked Badgers came back from deficits four times before leaving Yost Ice Arena in Ann Arbor, Michigan, with a 6-5 overtime victory over No. 14 Michigan.
Sophomore Christian Fitzgerald’s score 57 seconds into overtime allowed the Badgers to leave town with a series split.
Friday, Michigan handed UW its worst loss of the season, 5-1. Saturday, the Badgers responded by tying their second-highest goal total of the season.
BOX SCORE: Wisconsin 6, Minnesota 5 overtime
The victory raised Wisconsin’s record to 20-5-1 overall and 11-3 (33 points) in the Big Ten. That result coupled with first-place Michigan State’s 5-1 loss at Minnesota cut the Spartans’ lead over UW in the standings to four points.
The win also gave the Badgers a 3-1 record in games tied after two periods and a 2-0-1 mark in overtime contests.
The offensive eruptions resulted in four players with multi-point nights for Wisconsin and 11 players with at least one goal or assist. Fitzgerald (one goal, one assist) recorded his third game-winner of the season. Freshman Quinn Finley (one goal, three assists), freshman Joe Palodichuk (two assists) and senior Anthony Kehrer (two assists) also had multi-point nights.
The tone for the game was set during the first 10 minutes when Michigan scored during the first 2 minutes and UW responded with goals by Finley and senior Carson Bantle to take a 2-1 advantage at the 7-minute, 27-second mark.
Michigan game back with two more goals before the game was 10 minutes old to take a 3-2 lead.
Wisconsin wouldn’t reclaim the lead again until Fitzgerald’s game winner, which came off passes from Finley and Kehrer.
The victory sets up a visit from ninth-ranked Minnesota at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the Kohl Center. UW swept the Golden Gophers, 5-2, on Oct. 26 and 3-2 on Oct. 27.

How to milk a cow as seen at the Wisconsin State Fair
There’s more to milking a cow than you might think. In this archived video at the Wisconsin State Fair, a Journal Sentinel reporter gave it a try.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel files
Wisconsin Republicans had a field day when the state Democratic Party celebrated the start of National Dairy Month with a post featuring male cattle that don’t produce milk.
The Democratic Party of Wisconsin initially posted a “Happy Dairy Month” graphic on Facebook, Instagram and X showing two brown and white cattle with horns and no visible udders.
The party later posted a corrected version, featuring two black-and-white spotted Holstein cows. T-bone steaks with halos and wings floated above them – presumably, where the male cattle had gone.
“We regret that our Dairy Month tweet contained an error. We have ‘taken care’ of the issue, if you catch our drift,” the party wrote June 1.
Side note: Many dairy cattle, including females, naturally have horns. In most cases, they’re removed to prevent injuries to farmers and cattle themselves. But udders are visible only on female cattle, a.k.a. cows.
Tom Tiffany, the leading Republican candidate for governor, jumped on the mistake, posting a video touting his experience growing up on a Wisconsin dairy farm.
Tiffany and other Republicans also criticized Democrats for celebrating the start of Pride Month, which recognizes LGBTQ+ communities and begins June 1 alongside National Dairy Month.
“I regret to inform [Wisconsin Democrats] that you cannot milk a bull. But considering they think men can get pregnant, I guess thinking you can milk a bull tracks too,” Tiffany wrote on X.
Tiffany also said June 1 that, if elected governor, he would no longer fly the Pride flag over the state Capitol in June – a practice started by Democratic Gov. Tony Evers in 2019.
Evers also celebrated June Dairy Month with a video message, in part criticizing President Donald Trump’s tariff policies and cuts to federal programs supporting farmers.
Wisconsin is home to about 5,000 dairy farms – more than any other state – and has about 1.27 million cows. National Dairy Month originally started in 1937 as National Milk Month.
