Box ScoreWisconsin netminder Brian Elliott recorded a 33-save shutout and snapped Denver's seven-game unbeaten streak as the Badgers blanked the Pioneers, 4-0, in WCHA action before a sellout crowd of 6,136 at Magness Arena.
"I have to give Wisconsin credit, because their intensity gave us problems all weekend long," said Denver Head Coach George Gwozdecky. "We created some scoring chances, but Brian Elliott was there to respond. We didn't have a lot of answers tonight. "
Wisconsin outshot the Pioneers by a 17-5 margin in the opening frame and scored the only goal of the period when Michael Davies took a long outlet pass from Ross Carlson and made a cross-ice feed to Ben Street, who beat DU netminder Glenn Fisher stick side 54 seconds into the game.
The Badgers stretched their lead to 3-0 after two periods on a pair of power-play tallies. Tom Gorowsky buried a feed on the goalmouth off a pass from Kyle Klubertanz at the 10:00 mark, while Matthew Ford's slap shot from the point got past Fisher at 11:57.
