2024–25 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey season

Shortly after the 2023–24 season, the men's Atlantic Hockey Association and women's College Hockey America formally merged under the new name of Atlantic Hockey America, retaining the Association's AHA initialism. The merged league included all members of both predecessors. Arizona State formally joined the NCHC, bringing the number of conference members up to nine. Initially, the league instituted a play-in game for the final quarterfinal spot in the NCHC tournament. However, due to the logistics of a play-in game prior to the quarterfinals being too complicated with travel and additional strain on student-athletes and staff, the play-in game was scrapped and only the top eight teams qualified for the NCHC tournament. Augustana, which had joined the CCHA in 2023, had been scheduled to become a full-time member beginning with the 2025–26 season. However, despite only playing a partial conference schedule, the league decided to accelerate the Vikings assimilation into the league and made Augustana eligible for the conference tournament. Because Augustana's schedule had already been set prior to the announcement, the CCHA elected to have their conference standings decided by winning percentage of conference games. Despite this bringing the number of full conference members up to nine, the CCHA decided against expanding their conference tournament, meaning only the top eight CCHA teams qualified for the playoffs. Shortly after the start of the season, American International College announced that its men's hockey team would leave AHA after the 2024–25 season and join the bulk of AIC's other sports in the Northeast-10 Conference, which plays the sport under NCAA Division II regulations and does not participate in the Division I championship. ==Polls==

Season tournaments Standings ==PairWise Rankings==

The PairWise Rankings (PWR) are a statistical tool designed to approximate the process by which the NCAA selection committee decides which teams get at-large bids to the 16-team NCAA tournament. Although the NCAA selection committee does not use the PWR as presented by USCHO, the PWR has been accurate in predicting which teams will make the tournament field. For Division I men, all teams are included in comparisons starting in the 2013–14 season (formerly, only teams with a Ratings Percentage Index of .500 or above, or teams under consideration, were included). The PWR method compares each team with every other such team, with the winner of each “comparison” earning one PWR point. After all comparisons are made, the points are totaled up and rankings listed accordingly. With 64 Division I men's teams, the greatest number of PWR points any team could earn is 63, winning the comparison with every other team. Meanwhile, a team that lost all of its comparisons would have no PWR points. Teams are then ranked by PWR point total, with ties broken by the teams’ RPI ratings, which starting in 2013–14 is weighted for home and road games and includes a quality wins bonus (QWB) for beating teams in the top 20 of the RPI (it also is weighted for home and road). When it comes to comparing teams, the PWR uses three criteria which are combined to make a comparison: RPI, record against common opponents and head-to-head competition. Starting in 2013–14, the comparison of record against teams under consideration was dropped because all teams are now under comparison. ==Player stats==
