The Continental Hockey League (CnHL) is a defunct semi-professional ice hockey league which operated from 1972 to 1986.[1] It is known as the predecessor to the All-American Hockey League, in which three teams (Danville Dashers, Dayton Jets, and Troy Sabres) were charter members.

The league ceased operations after the 1985–86 season.

The championship trophy for the CnHL was called the 'Walmer Cup'.[2]
