history
The Huddinge IF ice hockey department was founded in 1946. In January 1950, this split off from the parent club and was henceforth called Huddinge IK . Initially, the club's first team played on a regional level in the Stockholm series before being promoted to third-class Division III in 1955. The club belonged to this division until 1966, when it was promoted to the then second division, Division II. From 1975 to 1999 Division I was the second highest league, which has been called HockeyAllsvenskan since 1999 .
In 1978, 1979, 1986 and 1993 the club took part in the Kvalserien , the qualifying round for the Elitserien , but could never achieve promotion. In the 1989 play-offs, a game against Timrå IK was only decided in the third extra time. At the time it was the longest ice hockey game ever played in Sweden. It still ranks among the top 10 longest games in Sweden.
During the last attempt at promotion, in 1993, the Huddinge IK moved for the home game against local rivals AIK Ishockey in the Globes and set a new attendance record of 12,487 visitors. Huddinge also won the game 5: 3. A month later the second leg was played, which ended in a 3-3 draw and attracted 13,124 spectators. These two games went down in the history of Swedish ice hockey because of their high attendance numbers as they set the attendance records for games outside the Elitserien.
At the end of the 1999/2000 season, the club was relegated to the third-class Division I, but managed to return to the Allsvenskan a year later (without losing points in the promotion games). In the following years, the team occupied mostly back places in the Allsvenskan, before relegation to Division I again in 2005. Again, the direct rise succeeded, but since then the club denies the relegation round every year. At the end of the 2007/08 season, the club did not manage to stay up in the relegation series at first, but received the license for HockeyAllsvenskan in the summer of 2008, because Nyköpings Hockey had to be relegated . At the end of the 2008/09 season, the club was relegated to Division I. Since then he has been playing in the third division now called hockeyettan .

Home ground
Initially, the club used an ice rink in Sjödalsparken before the Huddinge Ishockeybana was opened in 1952 . More than 1200 spectators came to this ice rink for a regional promotion game in 1952. In 1967 the club moved to the Björkängens artificial ice rink , which was roofed over in 1978 and has since been called Björkängshallen . The opening game against Linköpings HC ended 6-0.
Individual home games of the club are played in the Johanneshovs Isstadion , in the Scaniarinken or in the Ericsson Globe , especially if a large number of spectators are expected.
Floorball
In 1996 the women's floorball department was founded. From 1998 a first women's team took part in Division IV and established itself in this division. In spring 2001 this team should be dissolved, but then the club got the request to take over the Division II team of LM Ericsson . After the integration of this team in the Huddinge IK, they first played on in Division II, before they achieved promotion to Division I against the Visby IBK in 2004 . In Division I, the team established itself quite quickly, so that at the end of the 2007/08 season, the Kvalserien for promotion to the Elitserien was achieved. There the women met the first division club from Skellefteå and the second division club from Västerås . Both clubs were defeated by the Huddinge IK , so that the women's team rose to the top division.
