The Champions Hockey League is a European ice hockey tournament launched by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF), which started in the 2014–15 season.

Background

The IIHF launched a tournament with the same name in 2008 to coincide with the IIHF's 100th anniversary. The tournament's only season was played between 8 October 2008 and 28 January 2009, and was won by the ZSC Lions who got to play in the 2009 Victoria Cup game as a result. The IIHF planned to launch another season, but was ultimately forced to cancel the tournament due to problems with finding sponsors and failure to agree on a format. On 9 December 2013, the IIHF officially announced that they had launched a new tournament with the same name, born out of the European Trophy, starting in the 2014–15 season.[2]

F founding leagues

Note: It was decided that the 2021–22 season would not be accounted for.[12]

League ranking points calculation

Each match is counted for league ranking points. Points collected by all teams from a specific league are summed up and then divided by number of teams from that league. The final result represents the league's coefficient for that year. Coefficients are then sorted from highest to lowest: the best league gets 100 points with each following getting five points less than previous one (95, 90, 85...).

Points are awarded as follows:

  • win in regulation time – 3 points (group stage, playoffs)
  • win in overtime – 2 points (group stage only; no overtime in playoffs)
  • tie in regulation time – 1 point (playoffs only)
  • loss in overtime – 1 point (group stage only)
  • loss in regulation time – 0 points (group stage, playoffs)

Additionally, each team is awarded 1 point for reaching each of next rounds.

The last four seasons are taken into account for berth allocation for the 2018–19 season. League points are made of 25% of points won in first season, 50% of points won in second season, 75% of points won in third season and 100% of points won in last, fourth season.

For the 2018–19 season, each of the four previous seasons will be taken into account and starting with 2019-20 season each will be based on points from last five seasons.

Prize money

In the 2014–15 season, 40 teams competed for a grand total of 1.5 million euros.[3]

European Trophy

The winner of the Competition will receive the “European Trophy”.[13]
