Following an impressive
2014–15 season, Karlskrona HK qualified for the
SHL, only 14 years after the club was established. Important factors for the promotion were strong team play, reliable goaltending by
Patrick Galbraith and offensive production by
Joel Kellman (39 points) and
Filip Cruseman (20 goals). The club was relegated back to the second-tier league following the
2017–18 SHL season. After being denied the mandatory elite license, the club was further relegated to the third-tier league
Hockeyettan following the
2019–20 HockeyAllsvenskan season; they were replaced by
Väsby IK HK. The club was saved from bankruptcy by a fund raiser by fans and alumni including former player
Joel Kellman and Swedish athlete and entrepreneur
Jon Olsson. ==Season-by-season records==
