2021–22 Boston College Eagles men's ice hockey season

The 2021–22 Boston College Eagles men's ice hockey team represented Boston College in the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey season. The team was coached by Jerry York, '67, his 28th season behind the bench at Boston College. The Eagles played their home games at Kelley Rink on the campus of Boston College, competing in Hockey East. It was the 100th season of play for the program, and the 38th season in the Hockey East conference.

Previous season recap
The Eagles entered the 2021–22 season following a strong 2020–21 effort. With a 17–6–1 record, going 16–4–1 in conference play, the Eagles finished first in Hockey East for a second straight year and returned to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2016. Despite clinching the top seed in the conference, no regular season trophy was awarded due to disparate scheduling among the league. The Eagles advanced to the Semifinals of the Hockey East tournament where they fell in double overtime to the UMass Lowell River Hawks. Earning a top seed in the NCAA Northeast Regional, the Eagles fell in the Regional final to the St. Cloud State Huskies. No mid-season tournaments were held due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
