The Badgers have earned six straight ranked wins after sweeping No. 4 Michigan over the weekend. In Friday's barnburner, Owen Lindmark shined with the second goal of the game and then the final goal of the game to secure the 5-4 win.

2. North Dakota (Previous: 1)

Nodak split with a gritty Boston University team over the weekend, taking a 3-2 loss on Friday and a 5-4 overtime win on Saturday. If you’re not watching Jackson Blake yet – you should be.
