The 2013–14 KHL season was the sixth season of the Kontinental Hockey League.
The league's 28 teams played a 54-game balanced schedule. The regular season began on 4 September with the Lokomotiv Cup between last year's finalists Dynamo Moscow and Traktor Chelyabinsk. The all-star game took place on 11 January in Bratislava, Slovakia and was followed by a 27-day break for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi from 30 January to 25 February. The last day of the regular season was 4 March.
Sixteen teams, eight from each conference, advanced to the Gagarin Cup playoffs, which began on 7 March. The winner of each conference, Metallurg Magnitogorsk from the East and Lev Prague from the West, met in the Gagarin Cup Final. The seventh and last game was played on 30 April, with Metallurg winning 7-4. All four playoff rounds were best-of-seven series.
In late April 2013 it was announced that a newly created team from Vladivostok would be admitted to league and become the league's second far-eastern team. The team is called Admiral Vladivostok and its name and emblem were chosen by the public. Its initial roster was filled in an expansion draft on 17 June.
A few days after Vladivostok was admitted to the league it was also confirmed that KHL Medveščak from Zagreb, Croatia would join the league.Medveščak previously played in Austrian-based EBEL league. This made Croatia the eighth country with a KHL team.
