Jase Weslosky stopped 24 shots as St. Cloud State beat the Wisconsin Badgers 3-0 in the first game of their best-of-three first-round WCHA playoff series.
The Huskies converted on 2 of 6 power-play opportunities. The Badgers were
0-for-3.
It's the Huskies second straight win over the Badgers after snapping a 14-game winless streak against Wisconsin in their last regular-season matchup.
The Badgers need to win game two tonight to force a deciding third game in the series on Sunday. The series winner advances to the WCHA Final Five in St. Paul next weekend.
