Course of the season

Again, the teams played the PCHA in a common game plan with those of the Western Canada Hockey League. Had the PCHA teams nor the majority of games between teams from both leagues can decide for last year, they lost this time 29 of 48 games against the WCHL teams, so that all three teams in the PCHA finally had a negative balance. In the championship final of the PCHA, the Vancouver Maroons defeated the Seattle Metropolitans, which still featured in the regular season one point more, just with 2:2 and 2:1. Following the season, the Seattle Metropolitans withdrew from the league and the two remaining PCHA franchises in Vancouver and Victoria changed in the WCHL, which meant the end for the PCHA.
