The Times Union Center (formerly known as the Pepsi Arena and as the Knickerbocker Arena) in Albany, New York is the current home of the ECAC men's hockey tournament. It has hosted the tournament annually since it moved from Lake Placid for the 2002-2003 season.
Every October since the 2006-2007 season, the Times Union Center also hosted the Governor's Cup tournament featuring four ECAC teams (so far RPI, Union, and Colgate have appeared each season, with Quinnipiac and SLU each appearing once) in a weekend of non-league games.
