† League had team(s) challenge for the Stanley Cup

Early North American leagues portal

The Maritime Professional Hockey League (MaPHL) was a professional men's ice hockey league operating in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia from around 1911 until 1914. Two of the league's champions challenged for the Stanley Cup. The league was preceded in 1910–11 by the Interprovincial Professional Hockey League and followed in 1914–15 by the Eastern Professional Hockey League.

History

The 1913 Sydney Millionaires Professional Ice Hockey Team, Maritime Professional Hockey Association champs, Stanley Cup Challengers.

The league was founded in 1910 as the Interprovincial Professional Hockey League in 1910. The name changed in 1911 to the Maritime Professional Hockey League. In 1914, the name changed again to the Eastern Professional Hockey League. The league suspended operations on February 7, 1915.

Two MaPHL champions went on to challenge the NHA champion for the Stanley Cup:

In September 1913, the MaPHL arranged with the NHA and the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) for the formation of a hockey commission to govern inter-league operations, contract issues and the play of the Stanley Cup between the league champions. In 1914, it was expected that the MaPHL champion would play the Toronto Blueshirts of the NHA for the Stanley Cup, but this was cancelled and Maritime champions did not play for the Stanley Cup again.
