The quarterfinals was played at the campuses of the seeded teams on Saturday, March 16, 2019. The Frozen Four was played on March 22 and 24, 2019 at People's United Center in Hamden, Connecticut. Quinnipiac University hosted the tournament, the second time that it and People's United Center hosted the Frozen Four. It was the third year that the Big Ten Network aired the championship game live and the second year the semifinals was aired live on BTN. Syracuse made the NCAA tournament for the first time in program history. The Wisconsin Badgers defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers 2âÂÂ0 for their fifth championship in program history.
In the fifth year under this qualification format, the winners of all four Division I conference tournaments received automatic berths to the NCAA tournament. The other four teams were selected at-large. The top four teams were then seeded and received home ice for the quarterfinals.
