The 1922–23 Michigan College of Mines Huskies men's ice hockey season was the 4th season of play for the program. The Huskies were coached by Bill Murdoch in his 1st season.

Season

For the fourth consecutive season, the Huskies were led by a new head coach. The change in leadership, however, was the least of the team's worries. After a stellar 12-game campaign the year before, MCM was limited to just 4 games for the entire season and lost every single match. After starting late, the team lost a home stand to Notre Dame. Since the Irish were one of the better teams at the time, that was hardly a black mark on the program.^[1] A couple of weeks later, however, the team was swept by St. Thomas, who were a middling team at best. Bill Murdoch resigned as coach after the disastrous season.
