As the saying goes, you only get one chance to make a good first impression. The Notre Dame men’s hockey team (1-0-0-0, 0-0-0 Big Ten) did just that on Saturday night, kicking off their 2021-22 regular season with a 5-2 victory over the Long Island University Sharks (0-3-0-0, Independent). Better yet, they did so in

The Notre Dame hockey team announced the incoming first-year class for the 2021-2022 school year which includes three forwards and one defenseman. Two of them are prospects for the upcoming 2021 NHL Entry Draft. After making the NCAA Championship field for the fifth consecutive season in 2020-2021, the Irish hope the new additions will bolster

After positive COVID-19 test results within the team during tier 1 testing and a consultative decision made with the Albany County Public Health Department and NCAA Medical Advisory Group, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish men’s hockey team will not be participating in the 2021 NCAA Division I Championship. The Irish were selected as the fourth

Nearly three months after their regular season started, Notre Dame (14-12-2, 12-10-2-1-2-2) finished it in style. The Irish swept the Penn State Nittany Lions (9-11-0, 7-11-0-2-1-0) out of Compton Family Ice Arena with a 5-2 victory on Friday night. They were even better on their senior night Saturday, pulling out a 7-1 offensive explosion to

Two weeks after being shut out in consecutive games, the Irish (12-12-2, 9-10-2-1-2-2 Big Ten) were able to return the favor. Notre Dame took care of business with back-to-back 2-0 shutout victories in East Lansing over the Michigan State Spartans last weekend. The sweep wraps up an incredible road regular season for the Irish, as

Irish hockey continued their success on the road with a series sweep of the Michigan State Spartans at Munn Arena in East Lansing this past weekend. The Irish (12-12-2, 9-10-2 Big Ten) dominated both games in the series, winning both games against the last-place Spartans (7-15-2, 5-14-1 Big Ten) by a score of 2-0. In

For the final time this regular season, the Irish are gearing up for a match-up away from Compton Family Ice Arena. That actually may not be as great as it sounds. The Irish own a stellar 8-2-0 record on the road this regular season. But with a home series against Penn State and the Big

This past weekend, the Notre Dame hockey team looked to avenge their season-opening sweep by Wisconsin, but the Irish (10-12-2, 8-10-2 Big Ten) left LaBahn Arena in Madison with a loss and a tie against the No. 5 Badgers (15-8-1, 13-6-1 Big Ten). Notre Dame started strong Friday, with junior forward Alex Steeves scoring a

Let’s have some fun with this nostalgic piece looking back on my Notre Dame sports experience. Sure, some more moments could occur this spring in the men’s and women’s basketball or hockey realms (or any sport for that matter) that could reshuffle this list, but for now I’m willing to put it in stone. So

Notre Dame hockey will take on Ohio State this weekend in a Big Ten showdown. The Buckeyes (5-12-1, 5-11-0-0-1-0 B1G) come into this game in a slump, losing six of their last seven games, all by two or more goals. The Irish (8-9-1, 6-7-1-1-2-1 B1G) hope to take advantage of that and continue a more
