The 2015 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey tournament was the national championship tournament for men's college ice hockey in the United States in 2015. The tournament involved 16 teams in single-elimination play to determine the national champion at the Division I level of the NCAA, the highest level of competition in college hockey. The tournament's Frozen Four – the semifinals and final – were hosted by Hockey East at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.

Providence defeated Boston University 4–3 to win the program's first NCAA title.

The championship game is remembered for a gaffe goal that allowed Providence to tie the score with less than 10 minutes to play.
