The 2024–25 KHL season is the 17th season of the Kontinental Hockey League. There are 23 teams that will compete in 68 regular season games, with a record-breaking 187 playing days, having begun on 3 September 2024 until through 23 March 2025.[1]

Season changes

[edit]

For the 2024–25 season, the competition remained unchanged with the number of teams participating and divisional placements. Only minor rule adjustments geared towards encouraging offensive play were introduced.[2]

For the second consecutive season, the regular season will have 782 games scheduled for a new record-breaking 187 gamedays, with each club to play 68 regular season engagements. The regular season will feature three breaks, the first after 97 consecutive days of matchplay from 9–16 December 2023, followed by the traditional New Year's break from 31 December to 2 January, lastly followed by the 2024 All-Star Week from 7–10 February.[1] The league maintained the previous season playoff format for the Gagarin Cup playoffs with a cross playoff system in which teams participate in the Conference Quarterfinals before a cross conference switch and re-seeding take place from the second round.[1][3][4][5]

Teams

[edit]

The 23 teams are split into four divisions: the Bobrov Division and the Tarasov Division as part of the Western Conference, with the Kharlamov Division and the Chernyshev Division as part of the Eastern Conference.

Each team plays 68 games: in the Western Conference team play every other team home-and-away (44 games), plus an additional 20 intra-conference games (10 home and 10 away games). The remaining 4 games were slated against opposition selected with a view to increasing the number of high-profile match-ups (2 home, 2 on the road). In the Eastern Conference team play every other team home-and-away (44 games), plus an additional 22 intra-conference games (11 home and 11 away games). The remaining 2 games were slated against opposition selected with a view to increasing the number of high-profile match-ups (1 home, 1 on the road). Points were awarded for each game, where two points were awarded for all victories, regardless of whether it was in regulation time, in overtime or after game-winning shots. One point was awarded for losing in overtime or game-winning shots, and zero points for losing in regulation time.[6]
