The 1924–25 Hamilton Tigers season was the fifth and last season of the Tigers. The club won the regular season but did not play in the playoffs as the players went on strike for increased pay. NHL president Frank Calder suspended the team. In the off-season, the assets of the Tigers were sold to form the new New York Americans expansion team.

Playoffs

The Tigers players went on strike to gain an increase in pay for the longer season.

Calder imposed a fine on the players and this was paid after the franchise was sold to New York.
