The Saskatchewan Huskies men's ice hockey team is an ice hockey team representing the Saskatchewan Huskies athletics program of University of Saskatchewan. The team is a member of the Canada West Universities Athletic Association conference and compete in U Sports. The Huskies play their home games at the Merlis Belsher Place in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.^[1]

History

Shortly after the founding of the University of Saskatchewan in 1907, the school fielded its first ice hockey team.^[2] Sparse records exist for the team before and during World War I, however, by at least 1918 Saskatchewan was playing in the provincial senior league. The following year, the Huskies were founding members of the Western Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union (WCIAU) along with Alberta and Manitoba. Unfortunately, travel expenses hampered the league in the early years and it was played on an infrequent basis between the three schools. For the first 20 years of the program, Saskatchewan spent much of its time playing senior hockey and battled the Toronto Granites for the 1923 Allan Cup.

By the mid-30s, Saskatchewan and Alberta finally came to terms on an annual series and stabilized the WCIAU into a permanent fixture. Taking a break only for World War II, the conference played every year from 1936 until 1962. The Huskies weren't able to break Alberta's hold on the crown until 1952, though they pushed the Golden Bears to the limit in most years. In 1962, the CIAU announced that it would be holding its first national ice hockey tournament and would be inviting the champion of four conferences to participate. The WCIAU rebranded as the Western Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Association (WCIAA) with Saskatchewan as one of four founding members. The Huskies won the title in 1967 to make their first appearance in the University Cup. The program would have to wait quite a while for their next trip but, by the early 80s, Saskatchewan was ready to cash in on their opportunity. Now in Canada West The team finished as national runners-up in '81 and '82 before finally winning the championship in 1983.^[3]

Saskatchewan would make only one trip back to the tournament over the next 15 years, however, by the late 1990s, the program was able to regain some of its past glory. The 21st century proved much more successful for the Huskies as the team made 13 trips to the University Cup in the first two decades. Three of those years ended with a loss in the championship game, leaving Saskatchewan with an unenviable record of 1–6 in the national final (as of 2024).
