Changes

After only one season, the 2014 newly founded club Steelers Kapfenberg had to pay tribute to the massive financial miscalculations and file for bankruptcy on July 7, 2015. A successor association was founded in June 2015. The KSV Hockey as a separate section under the umbrella of Kapfenberger Sportvereinigung . This kept the number of Austrian clubs the same. On the other hand, 2 Slovenian clubs, HK Triglav Kranj and HK MK Bled, ended their involvement in the INL .
