Savage Cup

The Savage Cup is the trophy that is awarded to British Columbia’s senior ice hockey champions.[1] This trophy was first presented in 1912-13 to the ice hockey team fielded by the Vancouver Rowing Club.[2] and the Savage Cup will be awarded to the BC provincial champions for the 2009-10 season.[3]

Historically the Savage Cup winner was advanced directly to the Allan Cup playoffs, with the first playoff game against the Alberta champions.[4] However, starting with the 2009-10 season, the Savage Cup will be awarded to the top British Columbia team at the Allan Cup.[3][5]
