BRINKMAN

The Big Ten announced Monday that Minnesota senior defenseman Ben Brinkman has been suspended for one game as a result of an incident that occurred in a game against Ohio State on February 12, 2022.

The action was taken by the conference after a review of a slew-footing incident that occurred near the 19:33 mark of the third period and resulted in Brinkman receiving a major penalty and a game misconduct.

Brinkman is ineligible to play in Minnesota’s next game against Penn State on Feb. 18, 2022.
