The 1923–24 PCHA season was the 13th and last season of the professional men's ice hockey Pacific Coast Hockey Association league. Season play ran from November 26, 1923, until February 25, 1924. Each team played 30 games, including eight games against Western Canada Hockey League (WCHL) teams. The Seattle Metropolitans club were the regular-season PCHA champions, but lost the play-off against the Vancouver Maroons.

League business

The league approved a rule limiting goalkeeper pads to 12 inches (300 mm) in width. The league also banned goalkeepers from going behind their own net.[1]
