The Wisconsin Badgers men's hockey non-conference schedule is here, and it's headlined by a pair of games at a school where Mike Hastings used to coach.
Dates had already been revealed for a thrilling showdown against Omaha on December 10-11, but now a few more opponents and locations have been revealed.
To get the season started, Robert Morris will come to Madison for a series on October 2-3. From there, things get interesting.
Other than the neutral site Kwik Trip Holiday Face Off, the Badgers lone non-conference slate will be at Minnesota State on October 9-10.
Obviously, Hastings has quite the ties with the Mavericks, as he was the head coach over there from 2012-2023.
Remember, Wisconsin and Minnesota State split two games at the Kohl Center during the 2025-26 season.
The only other notable addition to the Badgers' schedule sees Canisius come to town on November 28-29.
As for the rest of their 2026-27 slate, here's a reminder of what to expect in terms of Big Ten action.
