2017-18 NCAA Division I Men's Independents

The NCAA Division I Men's Independents for the 2017-18 season consist solely of the Arizona State Sun Devils Men's Ice Hockey program. The team has been morphing into an NCAA program from the American Collegiate Hockey Association since the 2015-16 season. The team played a hybrid schedule in 2015-16 with both NCAA and ACHA games being played. The team plays as a Division I Independent. The team had hoped to be in a conference by the 2017-18 season  but the team will attempt to join a conference over the next few seasons with the Big Ten Conference, National Collegiate Hockey Conference, and the Western Collegiate Hockey Association being the most likely destinations for the program.
