The 1919–20 Toronto St. Patricks season was the third season of the Toronto National Hockey League franchise. The franchise was sold to the owners of the Toronto St. Patricks amateur hockey association and renamed the St. Patricks. The club improved on its record from the previous season, but did not make the playoffs as the Ottawa Senators won both halves of the season.
