After a long hiatus with uncertainty as to when games would begin, college hockey is finally returning this weekend. For the first time since the NCAA created a hockey championship in 1947, there is not an incumbent champion. The start of a new season places every team on even ground but, because COVID-19 cancelled last season before the NCAA tournament could determine a champion, that sensation of it being anyone’s season feels more true than ever before.
