Two of the league's champions challenged for the Stanley Cup. It was also known as the Inter-Provincial Professional Hockey League and Eastern Professional Hockey League.

As part of the general progression of elite ice hockey leagues to paid professionals in the time period around 1910, the league made the switch official in 1910, calling itself the Inter-Provincial Professional Hockey League.
