This is a list of seasons completed by the University of Alaska Anchorage men's ice hockey team. Alaska Anchorage has made three NCAA tournament appearances in its history, all in consecutive years. As of 2018 the Seawolves are the last independent team to receive a bid to the NCAA tournament.
The team was established in 1989 as the Anchorage Aces. They were originally a semi-professional club in the Pacific Southwest Hockey League organized by Dennis Sorenson, as a senior men's ice hockey team to compete against the established Alaska Gold Kings in Fairbanks. The Aces played four unofficial games during the 1989–90 season.
The 2019–20 Alaska Anchorage Seawolves men's ice hockey season was the 41st season of play for the program, the 36th at the Division I level and the 27th in the WCHA conference. The Seawolves represented the University of Alaska Anchorage and were coached by Matt Curley , in his 2nd season.

Sullivan Arena hosted the 1989 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships along with the Harry J. McDonald Memorial Center in Eagle River. In ice hockey, it was the home of the professional Alaska Aces of the ECHL from 1995 to 2017 and the University of Alaska Anchorage Seawolves men's NCAA Division I team from 1983 to 2019.
The end result was that Alaska Anchorage could no longer support several of its programs and, despite once being the cornerstone of the athletic department, the expensive ice hockey team was scheduled for a swan song in 2021. Before a single game could be played, however, the COVID-19 pandemic made playing the season untenable.
The 2024–25 Alaska Anchorage Seawolves men's ice hockey season will be the 44th season of play for the program and the 39th at the Division I level. The Seawolves will represent the University of Alaska Anchorage, play their home games at the Avis Alaska Sports Complex and be coached by Matt Shasby in his 3rd season.
