The 1985 Abby Hoffman Cup was the fourth staging of Hockey Canada's women's national championships (at the time known as the Shoppers Drug Mart Women's National Hockey Championships). The four-day competition was played in Summerside, Prince Edward Island. The Edmonton Chimos won the Abby Hoffman Cup[1] for the second year in a row, this time after a 4–3 win over the Hamilton Golden Hawks.
