Wisconsin's Eddie Wittchow Ejected After Destroying Minnesota's Tommy Novak With Vicious Hit

There is certainly no love lost between the Minnesota and Wisconsin hockey teams. The games can get pretty heated at times between the two rivals. Last year one of the game's ended with Wisconsin defenseman Eddie Wittchow igniting a brawl after laying out a Minnesota player. He received a suspension for that hit.

He didn't learn anything from it though. Around a year later his team is down big once again and he lays out another Minnesota player (and gets ejected):
