The 2012–13 CHL season was the 21st season of the Central Hockey League (CHL).

League business

Following the 2011–12 CHL season the number of the teams in the CHL dropped to 10 teams, with the Ray Miron President's Cup-winning Fort Wayne Komets moving to the ECHL along with the Evansville IceMen, the Dayton Gems ceased operations and were replaced by a Federal Hockey League team, the Dayton Demonz, the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees ceased operations, the Laredo Bucks were moved to St. Charles, Missouri, and would rejoin the league as the St. Charles Chill in the 2013–14 CHL Season. The Denver Cutthroats joined the CHL to play in their inaugural season. The CHL played the 2012–13 season with a single conference known as the Berry Conference, rather than its previous two-conference system consisting of the Berry and Turner conferences. For the 2013–14 the league will add its first ever Canadian team in Brampton, Ontario, just north of Toronto.
