The 2014 Memorial Cup was a four-team, round-robin format tournament played from May 16–25, 2014 in London, Ontario. It was the 96th Memorial Cup championship and determined the champion of the Canadian Hockey League (CHL). The tournament featured the Guelph Storm, champions of the Ontario Hockey League; the Val-d'Or Foreurs, champions of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League; the Edmonton Oil Kings, champions of the Western Hockey League; and the London Knights, who won the right to host the tournament over bids by the Barrie Colts and the Windsor Spitfires. London last hosted the Memorial Cup in 2005.

The semi-final match on May 23 between Val-d'Or and Edmonton was, at 102 minutes and 42 seconds, the longest game in Memorial Cup history and to date is the only game to go into triple overtime.

Edmonton defeated Guelph 6–3 on May 25 to win the Memorial Cup. The victory was the first Memorial Cup for the Western Hockey League since the Spokane Chiefs won the Memorial Cup in 2008. Guelph became the first team since the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in 1992 to lose the final after going 3–0 in the round robin.
