Brown's return to the ice after losing the entire 20–21 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic began well with Luke Kania posting a shutout in the opening match.

In early December, Brown finally ended its losing streak when Caron posted back-to-back shutouts with the first coming in surprise fashion against Harvard, a team that would eventually make the NCAA tournament.

After losing the first game, Brown fought back to tie the series with an overtime victory and then built a 3–1 lead midway through the deciding match.

Unfortunately, the Bears couldn't hold the advantage and after the Saints tied the game things looked bleak for the Brunos.

However, before the Bears had a chance to generate any opportunities, St. Lawrence scored on the first shot of the extra period and ended Brown's season.
