Wisconsin hockey assistant becomes 2nd-youngest head coach One of head coach Mike Hastings's assistants is departing the Wisconsin Badgers to lead his alma mater

In what can only be described as the most-impactful personnel change for the #Badgers in the last 15 minutes, Wisconsin men's hockey assistant coach Nick Oliver is departing.

He will lead his alma mater as the 2nd-youngest men's DI hockey head coach.

In 3 years, Wisconsin hockey goes from miles to inches away Wisconsin men's hockey fell just short in the 2026 national championship game, but the Wisconsin Badgers have taken a huge leap under Mike Hastings

A 1,400 word exercise in catharsis as #Badgers fans finally get the opportunity to experience this level of devastation again.

The latest chapter in Wisconsin's unfinished return to glory ends in a blessed kind of agony that is impossible without something UW lacked for far too long: hope.

Well, Something has been done, just not in the way I’d hoped. According to Talia Goodman’s On3 Transfer Portal Tracker, junior wing Kyrah Daniels has put her name in.

Daniels was easily one of the #Badgers best players last year on both ends of the court and is a big loss for UW.

More coming from Vegas, but first, a huge thank you to all who clicked, read, and subscribed at badgerbreakaway.com this season.

You helped a proudly independent publication cover not one, not two, but three college hockey national championships.

Grateful for you, #Badgers fans.

Daniel Hauser gets a piece of his glove on DU's first goal and Ben Dexheimer hits the crossbar on a potential late-equalizer.

The #Badgers literally came up two inches short of a national championship.

Wisconsin hockey title game effort thwarted by Denver defense The Wisconsin Badgers fired an astounding 81 shot attempts, but failed to get more than one into the back of the net

A few miscues led to a third-period comeback that doomed the Wisconsin #Badgers.

Here's what happened.

Captain Ben Dexheimer on leaving the #Badgers better than 4 years ago:

"We've kind of set the standard for Wisconsin now. I couldn't be more proud to leave a place in the hands of the guys that are coming back next year and the coaching staff that will keep this program afloat."

"I'm just so proud of our seniors and what they've done for this program. It wasn't easy. I'm just so thankful to be a Badger." - #Badgers alternate captain Joe Palodichuk

#Badgers captain Ben Dexheimer: "I couldn't be prouder of this team from the ups and downs throughout the year."

Hell of a season, guys. Gutted it had to end like that, but you can easily hold your head high after that run. #Badgers

Can the #Brewers salvage this Saturday ?? … 😢 #FMFC 😭 #Badgers

#Badgers hockey may have broken the Wisconsin Sports Heartbreak mold with this one.

Last team into NCAA tourney field finds incredible way to bottle Championship Game it dominated opportunities in.

They played their hearts out. Devastating. #Badgers

Such a tough loss, but the #Badgers men should be proud of their season.

FINAL

Denver 2, Wisconsin 1

For the third time in five seasons, it's the Denver Pioneers.

#7 will have to wait for the #Badgers.

Holy Hauser. Trying to keep us in it. #Badgers #FrozenFour

That's a miraculous sequence of blocks and saves to keep the #Badgers within one. Wow.

#Badgers hockey players about to take this one to their fucking grave.

Feels like a soft call against Montgomery there.

Brutal break for the #Badgers to go on the PK down one with 4:14 to play.

Women’s teams at UW get it done. That is the takeaway.

Need a drink ontop of my drink 🥃 … #Badgers hockey 🏒 .. #OnWisconsin #Madison

Nobody loves innocuous blueline shots more than Bucci. Calm down guy #Badgers

Tell me color guy Colby Cohen calling the NCAA Men's Hockey National Championship doesn't sound EXACTLY like Brewers sometime color guy Vinny Rottino. I dare you!

Damn. #Badgers

What a save by Houser. If we could now just cruise to a title that'd be great #Badgers
