The 1930–31 Philadelphia Quakers season was the Quakers' sole season in the National Hockey League (NHL). The team moved from Pittsburgh, where they had played as the Pittsburgh Pirates since 1925.
The team relocated to Philadelphia and was in the charge of Benny Leonard, the prizefighter.
The team finished with 12 points for the season, the worst performance in the six-year history of the Pirate/Quaker franchise. The team lost $100,000 on its operations and folded after the season. As a result, Philadelphia was left without an NHL franchise until the Flyers arrived in 1967.
