The 2022 Hockey East Men's Ice Hockey Tournament was the 37th edition of the Hockey East Tournament. It was played between March 9 and March 19, 2022. As the tournament champions, Massachusetts received the conference's automatic bid into the 2022 NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Tournament.

Format

The tournament included all eleven teams in the conference. Teams were ranked according to their finish in the conference standings. Seeds 1–5 earned a bye into the quarterfinal round, while seeds 6–11 played to determine the remaining quarterfinalists. Winners in the opening round were reseeded and advanced to play top three seeds in reverse order. Winners of the quarterfinal matches were again reseeded for the semifinal, and the winners of those two games faced off in the championship.

All series were single-elimination with opening round and quarterfinal matches occurring at home team sites. Beginning with the semifinal round, all games were held at the TD Garden. The tournament champion received an automatic bid into the 2022 NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Tournament
