The 1924–25 Toronto St. Patricks season was Toronto's eighth in the National Hockey League (NHL). The St. Pats qualified for the playoffs for the first time since the 1921–22 season, finishing second. The St. Pats lost to the Montreal Canadiens in what turned out to be the NHL championship when Hamilton was suspended..

Offseason The team's majority shares held by Percy and Fred Hambly were sold to the partnership of mining magnate J. P. Bickell and movie theater impresario Nathan L. Nathanson, managing director of the Famous Players Theatre chain. Part-owner Charlie Querrie retained his minority ownership.
