The 2010–11 Boston College Eagles men's ice hockey team represented Boston College in the 2010–11 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey season. The team was coached by Jerry York, '67, his seventeenth season behind the bench at Boston College. The Eagles played their home games at Kelley Rink on the campus of Boston College, competing in Hockey East.
Boston College entered the 2010-2011 season as reigning National Champions, having defeated Wisconsin in the 2010 Frozen Four Championship Game. The Eagles also began the season as defending Hockey East tournament and Beanpot champions, having alo won both tournaments during the 2009-2010 season. The Eagles raised their 2010 National Championship banner in the home opener against Merrimack on October 29, 2010. BC skated to a 3-2 victory.
On February 14, 2011, BC defeated Northeastern 7-6 in overtime on a goal by junior forward Jimmy Hayes in the Beanpot Championship. It was the first time the Eagles have won back-to-back Beanpots (having also won in 2010) since the team won three-in-a-row from 1963-1965. Sophomore forward Chris Kreider was named tournament MVP.
BC clinched the Hockey East regular season crown by sweeping New Hampshire in the final series of the regular season. It was the Eagle's record eleventh Hockey East regular season title and the team's first since 2005. The Eagles also repeated as Hockey East Tournament champions, defeating Merrimack 5-3 in the tournament championship game. It was also BC's tenth Hockey Tournament Tournament title, a conference record. Junior Cam Atkinson was named tournament MVP.
The Eagles entered the 2011 NCAA Tournament as a number one seed in the West Regional played in St. Louis at the Scottrade Center. BC failed to defend their 2010 National Championship, losing in the first round to fourth-seeded Colorado College 8-4.
