The National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) revealed the 2022-23 league schedule on Wednesday. Once again, Colorado College will face one of the most demanding conference slates in the country, which includes 18 of its 24 games against teams that competed in the 2022 NCAA Tournament. 

Second-year head coach Kris Mayotte and the Tigers open league play the weekend of Nov. 4-5 by hosting Minnesota Duluth, winners of two of the last four NCAA titles, at Ed Robson Arena. The Bulldogs did not travel to Colorado Springs this past season.
 
The following weekend, CC travels to Miami University (Nov. 11-12), then returns home to host St. Cloud State, Nov. 18-19. The 2022 calendar year closes out with series at Minnesota Duluth, Dec. 2-3, and at home against Omaha, Dec. 9-10.
 
After the new year, Colorado College plays 14 consecutive league games, starting with a series at St. Cloud State on Jan. 13-14, followed by a home weekend against Western Michigan on Jan. 20-21. Also during the second half of the season, CC will host North Dakota (Feb. 24-25) and travel to Omaha (Feb. 10-11) and Western Michigan (Feb. 17-18).
 
The Battle for the Gold Pan against in-state rival and defending national champion Denver begins on Saturday, Jan. 28 at Magness Arena. The teams will then battle on Saturday, Feb. 4 at Robson Arena and close the regular season on March 3-4.
 
Once again, all eight league teams will play five teams in both home and away series, while facing the other two teams for just one series. Colorado College will not host Miami or travel to North Dakota in '22-23.
 
Following the regular season, the NCHC Tournament begins with the best-of-three quarterfinal series March 10-12, with the top four seeds hosting the bottom four seeds on campus sites. The series winners then advance to the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul for the NCHC Frozen Faceoff with the semifinals scheduled for Friday, March 17 and championship game on Saturday, March 18. The Frozen Faceoff champion receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
 
CC will release its non-conference schedule, as well as game times and TV schedule, at a later date.
