The draw of the regular season took place on 22 May 2024 in Prague, Czechia.[6]
Pots
editThe participating teams were seeded into Pots A to D according to their achievements in their national leagues and their respective league’s standing in the CHL league ranking. The reigning CHL champions Genève-Servette HC were the top seeded team and therefore given a place in pot A. The top pot also contained the reigning champions of four of the top five founding leagues according to the league rankings (Sweden, Switzerland, Germany, Finland and Czechia). Pot D contained 2023–24 ICE Hockey League regular season runners-up Fehérvár AV19 and champions of five challenger leagues.[7]

Regular season tie-breaking criteria
editTeams were ranked according to points (3 points for a win in regulation time, 2 points for a win in overtime, 1 point for a loss in overtime, 0 points for a loss in regulation time). If two or more teams were tied on points, the following tiebreaking criteria was applied, in the order given, to determine the rankings (see 8.4.4. Tie breaking formula group stage standings):[8]
- Greater number of wins in regulation time (3 point wins);
- Greater number of wins in total (regulation time wins + overtime and shootout wins);
- Better goal difference;
- More goals scored;
- More away goals scored;
- The higher position in the CHL Draw pot allocation.
Results
editPlayoffs
editFormat
editIn the playoffs, pairings will be formed based on the positions of the teams in the regular season as follows: the team finished 1st in the regular season faced the team finished 16th, the team finished 2nd faced the team finished 15th, and so on. There will be no play-off draw or any reseedings for the quarter-finals and semi-finals. In each round except the final, the teams play two games and the aggregate score decides which team advances. The first leg is hosted by the team with the lower seed with the second leg being played on the home ice of the other team. If aggregate score is tied, a sudden death overtime follows. If the overtime is scoreless, the team who wins the shoot out competition advances.
The final will be played on the home ice of the team with the higher seed.
