GMHL seasons

The 2013–14 GMHL season was the eighth season of the Greater Metro Junior A Hockey League (GMHL). The twenty teams of the GMHL played 42-game schedules.

Starting in February 2014, the top teams of the league played down for the Russell Cup, emblematic of the grand championship of the GMHL. Since the GMHL is independent from Hockey Canada and the Canadian Junior Hockey League, this is where the GMHL's season ended.

In the end, second year team Bradford Bulls defeated the defending champion Bradford Rattlers in the "Sidewalk Series" 4-games-to-1 to win their first ever Russell Cup as GMHL playoff champions.
