2020 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey tournament

The 2020 NCAA Division I men's 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. 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.

On March 11, 2020, the NCAA announced the entire tournament would be conducted with "only essential staff and limited family attendance" due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The following day, the NCAA announced that all NCAA championships for spring sports would be cancelled due to the pandemic.
