The 1916–17 Army Cadets men's ice hockey season was the 14th season of play for the program.

Season

For Frank Purdon's final season behind the bench, Army almost tripled the number of games on its schedule. The team benefitted from having an artificial ice rink for both practices and games for the first time, enabling the Cadets to finished with a winning record, defeating four other colleges along the way (a task they had a difficult time achieving over the previous few seasons).
