History
The Campbell Trophy was donated by the NHL's clubs in recognition of the contributions and services of its president at the start of the Modern Era expansion. It was designed to be a parallel to the Prince of Wales Trophy from its outset, being awarded to the West Division regular season champions from its inception in the 1967-68 NHL season to the 1973-74 NHL season. From the 1974-75 NHL season to the 1981-82 NHL season, it was given to the Campbell Conference regular season champions, and from the 1982-83 NHL season to the 1992-93 NHL season, the Campbell Conference playoff champions. The Campbell Trophy is given its present role following the 1993-94 NHL season, when the Campbell Conference became the Western Conference.
