There are Division I college hockey programs outside of the Hockey East. Despite what east coast citizens may think, college hockey spans from Maine all the way to Colorado. With leagues like the Atlantic Hockey league, Central Collegiate Hockey Association, College Hockey America, Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Hockey League and the Western Collegiate Hockey Association making up the men’s Division I, the NCAA hockey league is nationwide.
