The 2022–23 Union Dutchmen ice hockey season was the 82nd season of play for the program and the 31st in the ECAC Hockey conference. The Dutchmen represented Union College, played their home games at Achilles Center and were coached by Josh Hauge, in his first season.

After John Ronan finished the previous years as interim head coach due to the resignation of Rick Bennett, Union began a search for a permanent replacement. In mid-April, the team chose former Clarkson assistant Josh Hauge as the 22nd head coach in program history.^[1] John Ronan returned to his former post as an assistant while the rest of the staff was filled by new entries.

With a new coach came a new philosophy for the team and nearly half the roster changed in the offseason. While the Dutchmen retained their starting goaltender, the top 4 scorer all moved on. Several of the new faces filled in among the scoring leaders for the team but none were particularly outstanding. The result was that Union's offense was about as effective as it had been the year before; average. On defense, the team did well, allowing just over 30 shots per game, which was much better than they had the year before. Unfortunately, Connor Murphy was inconsistent throughout the year and the Dutchmen had a difficult time stringing wins together. Union's biggest problem was their performance on the road. The Dutchmen won just 2 out of 16 away games and more often than not had some lackluster results, including a 1–10 loss to Cornell.

Union finished the regular season in the bottom half of the ECAC standings but still managed to earn a home site for the first round of the postseason. The team faced a wounded Princeton squad and had a good opportunity to advance by scoring 4 times. Unfortunately, Murphy allowed 6 goals on just 27 shots and the Dutchmen's season ended with a thud.^[2]
