The 2020 NCAA Men's Division I Ice Hockey Tournament was a planned national championship tournament for men's college ice hockey in the United States that was scheduled to take place from April 9–11, 2020. The tournament was to involve 16 teams in single-elimination play to determine the national champion at the Division I level of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the highest level of competition in college hockey. The tournament's Frozen Four – the semifinals and finals – was to be hosted by Michigan State University and the Detroit Sports Commission at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan.[1] This was slated to be the seventh Frozen Four in the city of Detroit, with the most recent visitation being at Ford Field in 2010.
