The 1982 NCAA Men's Division I Ice Hockey Tournament was the culmination of the 1981–82 season in men's ice hockey for teams in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The North Dakota Fighting Sioux defeated the Wisconsin Badgers in the championship game, held in Providence, Rhode Island.
Qualifying teams[1][]
The NCAA permitted 8 teams to qualify for the tournament and divided its qualifiers into two regions (East and West). Each of the tournament champions from the three Division I conferences (CCHA, ECAC and WCHA) received automatic invitations into the tournament. Two additional automatic bids were received by the two ECAC division champions that did not contain the ECAC champion. At-large bids made up the remaining 3 teams, an additional 1 eastern and 2 western schools.
