The 2024–25 NHL season was the 108th season of operation (107th season of play) of the National Hockey League (NHL). The regular season started on October 4, 2024, when the Buffalo Sabres and New Jersey Devils played the first of two games in Prague, Czech Republic, as a part of the 2024 NHL Global Series. The Stanley Cup playoffs began on April 19, 2025 and ended on June 17, with the Florida Panthers winning back-to-back Stanley Cups. This season was the first for the expansion Utah Hockey Club (officially named the Utah Mammoth at the close of the 2024–25 regular season), who were established with the hockey assets of the Arizona Coyotes following the latter team's deactivation.
