The Badgers came from behind once again to steal points away from Penn State, battling back from a pair of two-goal deficits in the final period to tie the Nittany Lions 4-4.



Wisconsin topped Penn State in the shootout to earn the extra point in the Big Ten standings.

The tie comes one night after the Badgers rallied from a 2-1 deficit in the third period on Friday to beat Penn State 4-2.

Ryan Wagner, J.D. Greenway, Linus Weissbach and Max Zimmer tallied Wisconsin's four goals, with Zimmer's going down as the game-tying score with just under three minutes to play in regulation.

Badgers goaltender Jack Berry recorded 32 saves -- including three in overtime -- and sealed the shootout win with a stop of a shot from Penn State forward Liam Folkes.
