The Eastern Canada Amateur Hockey Association (ECAHA) was a men's amateur, later professional ice hockey league in Canada that played four seasons. It was founded on December 11, 1905 with six clubs: four from the Canadian Amateur Hockey League and two from the Federal Amateur Hockey League(FAHL), to bring together the top teams of both leagues. It was formed to enhance the revenues of a now popular spectator sport and help it cope in Canada with professionalism in the sport. The league would shed its amateur status for the 1908 season, leading to the split between Canadian amateur ice hockey teams playing for the Allan Cup, and the professionals playing for the Stanley Cup. The league would itself dissolve in 1909 over a dispute between team owners over business issues, and the emergence
