This year only five of six Big Ten Hockey Conference teams participated in the event. Curiously, a Wisconsin team off to an unprecedented and historically bad start to the season (1-8-1) were the only Big Ten club not participating this year, which, convenient.
Minnesota (7 points) and Penn State (6) lead the way for the Big Ten. New Hampshire, of all teams, led the way for Hockey East with five points with victories at Michigan and at home vs. Michigan State. Boston College was no help, obviously, dropping a 6-2 decision at home to Minnesota in their only Big Ten/Hockey East Challenge gamea result that proved to be the deciding three points in the Challenge. Womp.
