Conference history
Prior to the 2013–14 season, the team competed in the Central Collegiate Hockey Association, and also won its last ever conference championship. In the 2013–2014 season, the team began to play in the Hockey East conference, where it played until the conclusion of the 2016-2017 season. Beginning in the 2017–2018 season, the team joined the Big Ten Conference.{{cite web |url=http://www.uscho.com/2016/03/22/sources-notre-dame-leaving-hockey-east-for-big-ten-in-2017/|title=Sources: Notre Dame leaving Hockey East for Big Ten in 2017|first=Jim|last=Connelly|date=March 22, 2016|website=USCHO.com|access-date=2016-03-23}}
History
Ice hockey has existed on and off as both a club and varsity sport at Notre Dame since 1912. The modern era of Notre Dame hockey began in 1968, when the Fighting Irish began to play as a Division I independent. In 1971, the team joined its first conference, the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA). The team continued playing in the WCHA for a decade until moving to the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) with the conference's three Michigan schools in 1981.{{cite web|work=US College Hockey Online|url=http://www.uscho.com/stats/history/notre-dame/mens-hockey/2010-2011/|title=Notre Dame Men's Hockey: Team History|date=1996–2010|access-date=December 12, 2010}}
The Fighting Irish lasted only two years in the new CCHA, when ice hockey was downgraded to a club sport for the 1983–1984 season. During that season, the Fighting Irish played in the Central States Collegiate Hockey League (CSCHL). Notre Dame finished that season second in the CSCHL with a record of 13–2–0.{{cite web|publisher=Central States Collegiate Hockey League|url=http://cschl.com/page.php?page_id=5262|title=Year-by-year Standings|access-date=August 4, 2011}} In 1984–1985 Notre Dame Hockey was once again elevated to varsity status with the team playing as a Division I independent. In 1992 Notre Dame rejoined the CCHA. The Irish struggled to remain competitive in the CCHA, but began to improve under head coach Dave Poulin. In 2004, Poulin led the team to its first ever NCAA Tournament. However, the following season was dramatically different. They only won five games, the worst season in school history. Poulin resigned after the season.

In 2005, Jeff Jackson took over as head coach. Jackson, who had already won two national championships at Lake Superior State University, had an immediate impact at Notre Dame. In his first season with the Irish, the team greatly improved upon the five-win season, boosting its record to 13–19–5. 2007 was even more successful. The Irish achieved their first ever number one ranking in both the Uscho.com and USA Today Polls and their first number one seeding for the NCAA Tournament. The following year, the Irish finished fourth in both the CCHA's regular season and playoffs, and again made the NCAA Tournament. Once there, the Irish went on to beat top-seeded New Hampshire 7–3 and third-seeded Michigan State 3–1 to advance to the Frozen Four for the first time in school history. From there, they defeated first-seeded Michigan in overtime to advance to the national title game, ultimately losing to Boston College 4–1.{{cite news|publisher=USA Today|url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/hockey/2008-03-30-nd-msu_N.htm|title=Notre Dame books ticket to first frozen four|date=March 31, 2008|access-date=March 31, 2008}} Notre Dame also became the first four-seed to advance to the national semi-finals, and eventually to the national title game since the new 16-team format was introduced in 2003. In the 2008–2009 season, the Irish added another CCHA regular season title and a CCHA Tournament title, defeating Michigan 5–2 in the title game. Notre Dame advanced to the 2009 NCAA Tournament where the Irish was upset by 16th seeded Bemidji State 1–5.{{cite web|publisher=National Hockey League|url=http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=415765|title=Bemidji State stuns top-seeded Notre Dame; Cornell nips Northeastern|date=March 28, 2009|access-date=August 4, 2011}}
The following season, Notre Dame finished with a record of 13–17–8 and ended the season after being swept by Ohio State two games to none in the three game opening round series of the CCHA Playoffs.{{cite web|publisher=U.S. College Hockey Online|url=http://www.uscho.com/stats/team/notre-dame/mens-hockey/2009-2010/#teamsummary|title=Notre Dame Fighting Irish Men's Hockey 2009–2010 Team Statistics|year=2010|access-date=August 4, 2011}}{{cite web|last=Boggs|first=Justin J.|publisher=U.S. College Hockey Online|url=http://www.uscho.com/recaps/2010/03/06/carlson-stops-47-as-ohio-state-sweeps-notre-dame/|title=Carlson Stops 47 as Ohio State Sweeps Notre Dame|date=March 6, 2010|access-date=August 4, 2011}} The Irish rebounded in the 2010–11 regular season at 23–13–5, and clinched their second trip to the Frozen Four in program history by defeating New Hampshire 2–1 in the Northeast Regional Final.

Compton Family Ice Arena
{{Main|Compton Family Ice Arena}}
In February 2009, The University of Notre Dame announced it will begin construction on a new, freestanding, on-campus ice arena designed to meet the needs of both the Irish hockey team and the local community.{{cite web|publisher=University of Notre Dame|url=http://www.nd.edu/~univarch/documents/HockeyArenaConstruction2.pdf|title=Hockey Arena Construction|year=2010|access-date=August 4, 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121014223714/http://www.nd.edu/~univarch/documents/HockeyArenaConstruction2.pdf|archive-date=October 14, 2012|df=mdy-all}} Construction on the 5,022-seat arena began on March 15, 2010 with the venue opening in the Fall of 2011.{{cite news |last=Masoud |first=Chris|publisher=The Observer|url=http://www.ndsmcobserver.com/sports/hockey-new-arena-to-boost-program-1.1349200|title=Hockey: New arena to boost program|date=April 19, 2010 |access-date=August 4, 2011}} The arena held its first Notre Dame hockey game on October 21, 2011 when a sellout crowd saw Notre Dame defeat Rensselaer 5–2.{{cite news|last=Meenan|first=Jim|publisher=South Bend Tribune|url=http://articles.southbendtribune.com/2011-10-22/sports/30312068_1_riley-sheahan-sam-calabrese-compton-family-ice-arena|title=Notre Dame hockey: Irish win first game in Compton Family Ice Arena|date=October 22, 2011 |access-date=November 26, 2011}}
The new ice arena is located south of the Joyce Center, just north of Edison Road, and just west of where the new Irish track and field facility is being constructed. The majority of the general public arena seating is of the chair-back variety with bleacher seating in the student section.{{cite news| url=http://und.cstv.com/sports/m-hockey/spec-rel/021209aaa.html| title=Notre Dame to Construct New Ice Arena on Campus| work=und.cstv.com| access-date=February 12, 2009| archive-date=February 16, 2009| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090216045814/http://und.cstv.com/sports/m-hockey/spec-rel/021209aaa.html| url-status=dead}} The Compton Family Center replaced the rink inside the Edmund P. Joyce Center. During the time that the Irish played at the Joyce Center, the facility was the second smallest home rink in the CCHA with a hockey capacity of 2,857. All seats were benchers, and most of the seating consists of temporary bleachers. In 2007, the Irish compiled an impressive 14–2–2 home record at the Joyce Center.
