Slovenian Ice Hockey League

The Slovenian Hockey League (Slovene: Slovenska hokejska liga) or the National Championship (Slovene: Državno prvenstvo Slovenije) is the highest level ice hockey league in Slovenia. The championship phase is contested after the regular season to determine the national champion.

History

The Slovenian Hockey League was firstly contested in the 1991–92 season, with the championship being held at the end as the play-offs. Over time, some Slovenian teams entered the Austrian Hockey League, and joined only for the play-offs. In the 2007–08 season there was an issue, as the Croatian team Medveščak qualified for the play-offs. As the Slovenian Champion could only be a team from Slovenia, they did not take part in the play-offs. The Slohokej League was established and played its first season in 2009–10, but was cancelled after the 2011–12 season.
