The regular season began on October 1, 2022 and concluded on March 11, 2023.^[1] Two programs played their first Division I games this season while a third restarted its program.

After playing at the lower level of college hockey for over 40 years, Stonehill was promoted to Division I along with all of the varsity programs at that school.^[3] Due to the late announcement, however, the majority of teams that populated the Skyhawks' schedule were from the Division III and II levels.

The independent ranks also welcomed Lindenwood in its first varsity season. The Lions had fielded at least one team at the club level since 2003, and are 4-time national club champions.^[4]
