Wisconsin Women's Hockey 2025-2026

Yeah we were sitting right above the Maine fans and I was reminded of the part from Braveheart where he's like "They seem quite optimistic to me..." lol.

I mean... I'm a former hockey parent, so I get it.

Fantastically fun night. Great to see the banner raised and solid win.

I have a new favorite player in Sapovalivova. Was she the one where I was watching a U18 or something and they were talking about her being the best player in her country and she was comitted to WI?

Very noticeable even before she put up a point in that she was not backing down in the scrums. If this is her start here... watch out!

So glad Eden came back.

Was surprised to see Edwards on the point most of if not all of the night.

Got to get a few of last years seniors to sign the mini banner that they gave out. Told Casey that I was gonna miss seeing her play and she said how much she was gonna miss playing at LaBahn.

A+++ night

She played for Czechia in the 2022 U18 championships at LaBahn (she actually played only once at LaBahn, the other games at the rink in Middleton). She had just turned 16 at that point. She says it was that trip to Madison that convinced her to come here to play for UW.

I feel like I was watching that and they were talking about her coming to WI. I don't think I'm imagining that memory.

Excited to see her career based on the tiny sample size I saw tonight!

True freshman on a line with Eden and Simms... I mean... C'mon... :D

They should have had ushers telling people that sections 4 and 3 were reserved or have clear signage because there was a constant stream of people sitting in there and then getting kindly booted out. We sat up high in section 5. I may sit on the glass behind the UW bench at some point. It would be interesting to see the coaches and players interact.

I believe that was/is actually Nela Lopušanová. She committed to WI as soon as she could and plays at Bishop Kearney Selects.

I believe you are correct. It feels like it was more recent than Sapovalivova could have been meaning the player I'm recalling couldn't be here yet.

Regardless though... Sapovalivova jumped off the ice in terms being noticeable. Not quite like but almost like the first time I saw Harvey play.
