The NCAA men’s hockey selection show takes place tonight, Sunday, March 21.
16 teams, including 6 autobids, will be slotted into four regional sites: Albany, NY; Bridgeport, CT; Loveland, CO; and Fargo, ND. The regionals will take place from March 26-28.
The winners of each single-elimination regional will advance to the NCAA Frozen Four in Pittsburgh, PA on April 8-10.
Due to the lack of nonconference games, this is the first time in decades that the NCAA hockey tournament field will be picked subjectively by a committee, rather than dictated by the Pairwise rankings.
