In the regular season, the three teams played 24 games each. The two first-placed teams then met each other for the championship title in two-legged matches, with the better goal difference from both games being decisive. Each team received two points for a win, one point for a tie and zero points for a defeat.

With the Western Canada Hockey League , the PCHA got another rival for the best ice hockey players in North America. On January 9, Lester Patrick , defender of the Victoria Aristocrats, had to go into the goal of his team and even held a penalty shot by star player Jack Adams . Jack Adams was the PCHA top scorer with 30 points. After the regular season was already exciting and all three teams were only one point apart, the Vancouver Millionaires decide the championship title in the playoffs with two 1-0 victories against the Seattle Metropolitans.
