The '''2010–11 KHL season''' was the third season of the [[Kontinental Hockey League]]. It was held from 8 September 2010 and ended on 16 April 2011.

The season started with the [[Lokomotiv Cup|Opening Cup]] game between the [[2009–10 KHL season|last season's]] finalists, [[Ak Bars Kazan]] and [[UHC Dynamo]], the new team that was created by merging last season's Western conference winner [[HC MVD]] with [[HC Dynamo Moscow|Dynamo Moscow]].

[[Salavat Yulaev Ufa]] won the [[Gagarin Cup]] and the Russian Championship after beating [[Atlant Moscow Oblast]] 4–1 in the play-off final series.

==League changes==

===Team changes===
'''Folding of Lada Togliatti'''

[[HC Lada Togliatti|Lada Togliatti]] dropped out of the league and joined the [[Russian Major League]] instead, after failing to meet the league's financial requirements.

'''Merger of HC MVD and Dynamo Moscow'''

On 30 April 2010, it was announced that [[HC MVD]] would merge with [[HC Dynamo Moscow|Dynamo Moscow]] to form [[UHC Dynamo]], which for the time being will play the majority of their games at [[Megasport Arena]] in Moscow, while also attempting to play some games in [[Balashikha]]. The current plan is to have a new, large and modernized arena constructed in Balashikha by 2012.
