Hockey SERIES PREVIEW: No. 10 Penn State vs Wisconsin

I really respect how Gadowsky has built this program and won a Big 10 Tournament Championship in 2017 and a regular season Big 10 Championship in 2020. However, to really take that next step and be able to compete with programs like Michigan and Minnesota, he's going to have to begin to recruit more kids who get drafted into the NHL, which still has not happened yet. I mean, probably 2/3 of the rosters of Michigan and Minnesota are made up of NHL draft picks.

Considering how close PSU is to Ontario and Quebec and even hockey hotbeds in the USA, and the fact that PSU plays in a great arena and a great conference, it should be able to attract several kids who have been drafted.
