Lester Patrick Cup History

The Lester Patrick Cup was emblematic of the professional Western Hockey League. Originally named the President's Cup, the playoff championship trophy was renamed in 1960-61 to honour the late Lester Patrick following his death.

The league originated as an amateur loop called the Pacific Coast Hockey League in 1944-45. The league turned professional in 1948-49 and changed its name to the Western Hockey League in 1951-52. It operated with teams in the Western United States and Western Canada until 1973-74 when it suspended operations.
