The '''2001–02 AHL [[Season (sports)|season]]''' was the [[List of AHL seasons|66th]] season of the [[American Hockey League]]. It was the season of the biggest growth in the AHL's history, as it accepted eight new teams. The demise of the [[International Hockey League (1945–2001)|International Hockey League]] brought six teams transferring from the defunct league, in addition to two expansion teams.
The AHL realigns divisions again. The Eastern conference consists of the East, North and Canadian divisions. The Western conference consists of the Central, South and West divisions. The league also announces three additional trophies. Two of which are to be awarded for the regular season champions of the new divisions. The [[Norman R. "Bud" Poile Trophy]] goes to the West division, and the [[Emile Francis Trophy]] goes to the North division. The third trophy, the [[Michael Condon Memorial Award]] is first awarded for outstanding service by an [[Official (ice hockey)|on-ice official]] in the AHL.
