The Quebec Major Junior Hockey League is one of the three top-level amateur hockey leagues, along with the Ontario and Western Hockey Leagues, which comprise the Canadian Hockey League. As of the start of the 2022-23 season, 405 National Hockey League players had been members of a CHL team before making the leap to professional hockey.
