They continued the trophy's tradition in the new league when it was awarded to the west division champions, Syracuse Stars. The Oke trophy remained the west division championship until the 1952–53 season, when it became the trophy for the regular season champions of the American Hockey League, while the Calder Cup remained the AHL championship trophy. The 1960–61 Oke Trophy champions the Springfield Indians took the trophy with them, winning the east division in 1961–62. The newly christened John D. Chick Trophy replaced the Oke Trophy as the west division's trophy the same year. The AHL realigned divisions several times since 1961–62, but since then, the Oke Trophy has followed the previous winning team to the new division.
