The Coquitlam Express were a Tier II Junior "A" hockey team from Coquitlam, British Columbia. They were part of the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) and played in the (Mainland Division / Coastal Conference). They began play as a new franchise for the 2001-2002 season, and played in the city for four seasons at the Coquitlam Sports Centre.
Due to unsatisfactory conditions at the Sports Centre (specifically a reduction of parking due to the construction of a new swimming complex), the team relocated to the neighboring city of Burnaby for the 2005-2006 season, renaming themselves as the Burnaby Express.
