Six have come from the WCHA, five from the ECACHL, three from the CCHA and one from Atlantic Hockey. (16 Hockey East teams have been sent to the western regionals, with just two advancing to the Frozen Four.)
- Over the last fifteen seasons, Hockey East has boasted
22 of the 56 Frozen Four qualifiers, the most of any conference.
By comparison:
Hockey East: 22
WCHA: 18
CCHA: 15
ECACHL: 3

Atlantic Hockey 1
- At least two Hockey East teams have qualified for the
Frozen Four in 13 of the conference's 28 seasons, dominating
the competition in that span. By comparison:
Hockey East: 13 times
WCHA: Six times
CCHA: Six times
ECACHL: Zero (last time was in 1983)
- Hockey East was represented by at least one team in the NCAA championship game in 13 of the last 15 years, and each of eight straight years from 1997 to 2004. That is the most consecutive appearances in the title game by any conference since the inception of Hockey East in 1984-85. Hockey East has boasted 19 of the 40 teams that have advanced to the championship game since 1993.
- On two occasions, 1995 and 1999, the NCAA championship
game featured two Hockey East squads. Only the
WCHA (in 2005) has been able to make that claim since
the inception of Hockey East in 1984-85.
