It took eight games, but the Wisconsin men’s hockey team [eventually won one](http://uwbadgers.com/sport_news/mhky/headlines/story.html?sportid=119&storyid=15584). The Badgers had seen numerous third-period leads slip away during their first seven contests–including Friday night’s [3-2 loss to North Dakota](http://uwbadgers.com/sport_news/mhky/headlines/story.html?sportid=119&storyid=15565). But Saturday, they scored five third-period goals to top the Fighting Sioux 5-2 in Grand Forks. The seldom-used senior forward Tom Gorowsky scored two goals for UW in the win, including the eventual game-winner. Junior captain Blake Geoffrion also contributed a pair of goals, while freshman Derek Stepan found the net for the second time of his collegiate career. Wisconsin (1-6-1, 1-4-1 WCHA) returns home to the Kohl Center this weekend to host Michigan Tech Friday and Saturday.
