Franchise history
EC Kassel Huskies

The Kassel Huskies are a professional ice hockey team based in Kassel, Hesse, Germany. They played the majority of their seasons in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga.

The club was founded as ESG Kassel in 1977 and was renamed into EC Kassel in 1987. Since 1994, the professional crew of the club had been outsourced into a company with limited liability and belonged as Kassel Huskies to the founding members of the DEL.

It was announced 27 August 2010, that the club had folded from the DEL due to bankruptcy.[1]

Following the bankruptcy the club was relegated to the fifth tier Hessenliga.

In 2011 the Huskies finished first in the Hessenliga and were promoted to the third tier Oberliga.

In 2014 the Huskies finished second in the qualification round for the second tier DEL2.

In 2016 they won the DEL2-Championship after sweeping the reigning DEL2 champion Bietigheim Steelers.
