Nuremberg Ice Tigers (1995-2007)
From the 1995/96 season the first ice hockey team was renamed the Nuremberg Ice Tigers. You could only play for an average year again and finished eleventh. In the play-offs, the German record champions Adler Mannheim were eliminated 3-2 from Nuremberg's point of view.
The following season was much worse. After a catastrophic penultimate place in the preliminary round, the team only finished ninth in the subsequent relegation round. This meant having to compete in the playdowns to prevent relegation from the DEL. In the first round, the team met the Schwenninger Wild Wings , who lived up to their role as favorites and beat the Ice Tigers 4-1 in the series. As a result, they started at EV Landshut . As an outsider, they beat Landshut 3-0 and thus remained in the top German ice hockey division.
In the 1998/99 season , those responsible for the Ice Tigers were able to sign well-known players. Consequently, after the preliminary round, they were able to confidently qualify for the play-offs first. In the quarter-finals they met the Augsburg Panthers . In a hard-fought series, the team prevailed 3-2 and made it to the semi-finals for the first time. Another championship candidate was waiting there with the Frankfurt Lions . Despite the relatively balanced starting position, they beat the Lions 3-0 and were in the final of the German championship. In the final, the opponent was Adler Mannheim . The first game could be won 2-1 after extra time. Nevertheless, in the end the Nuremberg team lost just 3-2 and were only runner-up.
Nevertheless, this was one of the most successful seasons in the history of Nuremberg ice hockey. The following six years always followed the same pattern, no matter how successful the points round, the Ice Tigers were eliminated from the 2000/01 season six times in a row in the first round of the play-offs.
Sinupret Ice Tigers (2007-2009)
For the 2006/07 season the team was renamed “ Sinupret Ice Tigers” after sponsor Bionorica AG, Neumarkt . After qualifying again for the championship finals, this year it was finally possible to break through the series and advance to the final. There they were subject to the favored Adler Mannheim and were runner-up for the second time in the club's history.
Expectations rose with the runner-up and the first German championship was longed for for the 2007/08 season . At first it looked as if this endeavor would finally succeed. Promising names such as B. Ahren Spylo or the defender Shane Peacock were transferred to Nuremberg . After the main round, the Ice Tiger deservedly took first place and were now the first championship contender. Sovereign victories against the top teams from Cologne and Berlin gave courage for the subsequent play-offs . There the team first played in the quarter-finals against the DEG Metrostars , who previously only managed to prevail against the Hanover Scorpions in the pre-play-offs with great difficulty .
They went into the series as favorites and were able to take the lead after three and a half minutes through Ahren Spylo in the first game of the series, but then it was visibly difficult against the Düsseldorf team. Nevertheless, you won the first game and thus had the psychological advantage over the Metro Stars. In the second game, too, you clearly had problems. Despite another early lead, they lost the game 2-1. The following three games could not be won either. The DEG Metro Stars surprisingly made it to the semi-finals, while the champions of the regular season had to be eliminated in the quarter-finals for the first time in the history of the DEL. This meant that the season for the Nürnberg Ice Tigers ended after the quarter-finals. The first consequence was the resignation of long-time successful coach Benoît Laporte .
As the first in the main round, however, the Ice Tigers have the right to qualify for the newly founded Champions Hockey League . On January 8, 2008, sole shareholder Günther Hertel announced that the Ice Tigers would no longer be solvent if new sponsors were not found in the near future. Three months later, on March 10, 2008, Günther Hertel announced at a press conference that the DEL location in Nuremberg would remain. This is the second time the association has escaped bankruptcy within a few years. Günther Hertel, who runs the club as a hockey enthusiast, wanted to prevent him from having to compensate for deficits from his private assets, as in recent years.
For the 2008/09 season, the Sinupret Ice Tigers parted ways with their parent club, EHC 80 Nuremberg. For years the society and the association had a dispute, u. a. the parent club made excessive demands on the Ice Tigers. A new cooperation partner was found in the Höchstadter EC .
In September 2008, the Sinupret Ice Tigers took part in qualifying for the newly founded Champions Hockey League as the first in the preliminary round of the previous year . They met SC Bern from Switzerland and HC Košice from Slovakia. The first game against the first round of the Swiss National League A took place on September 13, 2008 in the local Arena Nürnberger Versicherung. With Christian Laflamme , the Nuremberg management was able to reactivate a former player for this tournament only. The Ice Tigers lost the game after a tough battle with 1: 4 in front of over 5,000 spectators. After SC Bern had also won the second game against HC Kosice, the Nuremberg team was unable to qualify for the primarily financially lucrative tournament. The Ice Tigers won the match against the Slovak representative HC Kosice 5: 3.
In November 2008 it became known that the GmbH was insolvent. As a result, a provisional insolvency administrator was appointed for the GmbH by the Nuremberg Local Court on November 25, 2008 under the file number 8000 IN 1963/08 , who prepared the insolvency report by December 30, 2008. On March 26, 2009, the previous shirt sponsor Bionorica withdrew, so that insolvency proceedings would have been opened within the following two weeks if no further investors had been found. The opening of insolvency proceedings would have resulted in the loss of the DEL license.
Thomas Sabo Ice Tigers (2009-2020)
At the beginning of April 2009, a group of investors around the jewelry manufacturer Thomas Sabo took over Ice Tigers GmbH, so that bankruptcy was averted and gaming operations were secured in the 2009/10 season. In April 2019, the club announced a realignment with a greater emphasis on working with young players. The previous sporting director of EHC 80 Nuremberg, André Dietzsch, took over the office of sporting director at the Ice Tigers, and Kurt Kleinendorst was the new coach . For Martin Jiranek, his work in Nuremberg ended after six years as responsible for sports.
In August 2018, Thomas Sabo announced that it did not want to extend its sponsorship contract, which would expire on April 30, 2020.
Placements since the founding of the DEL
For the 1994/95 season, the ice hockey Bundesliga was replaced by the German ice hockey league, in which the Nürnberg Ice Tigers started as a founding member for the first time in the club's history in the top German division.
The greatest successes were the two runner-up championships in 1999 and 2007, in which the Ice Tigers failed in the final at Adler Mannheim . In the 2007/08 season, the team took first place after the preliminary round and thus went into the play-offs as favorites. Then the team was eliminated in the first round against the DEG Metro Stars , who had only qualified for the quarter-finals via the pre-play-offs.
In 2013 and 2014 the Nuremberg team reached the playoff quarter-finals, in 2016 and 2017 they were eliminated in the semifinals against Wolfsburg.

From the 2003/04 season, the Ice Tigers for two years were trained by the then national coach Greg Poss, who, however, announced after the game 2004/05 entirely on his national coach to focus -Amt. From the 2005/06 season to the end of the 2007/08 season , Benoît Laporte was a coach in Nuremberg, having previously worked for the Augsburg Panthers . Although on the first game day of the Sinupret Ice Tigers in the 2006/07 DEL season, partner Günther Hertel announced in a pre-game speech that the contract with Benoît Laporte had been extended prematurely for another two years until 2009, the contract was shortly after End of the 2007/08 season, as Laporte immediately moved to Switzerland as a "firefighter" at EHC Basel , which is threatened with relegation . On April 29, 2008 the Ice Tigers announced that the new coaching team would be Andreas Brockmann (Landshut) and Martin Jiranek (EHC 80). After three game days of the 2011/12 season, the Ice Tigers dismissed Brockmann and signed Peter Draisaitl as his successor until the end of the season. He was succeeded by Jeff Tomlinson, previously coach of the Düsseldorfer EG . After the 26th match day of the 2012/13 season, the Ice Tigers sacked Tomlinson. As the new head coach Bengt-Ake Gustafsson was signed, but his contract was not extended after the elimination of the Ice Tigers against Grizzly Adams Wolfsburg in the pre-play-offs.
In April 2013, the Ice Tigers announced that the previous assistant coach Tray Tuomie would take over the post of head coach for the coming season. Maurizio Mansi, who had previously been under contract with EHC Red Bull Munich for three years , completed the new coaching team. After a successful first season, the two’s contract was extended for another two years. But the start of the 2014 season did not make it easy for the Tuomie-Mansi coaching team, so the Ice Tigers increasingly had to worry about the pre-playoffs. Jiranek drew the consequences at the end of December and released the coaching duo from their duties. By the end of the season, Jiranek took over the post of head coach and hired Rob Wilson , who had previously been dismissed in Straubing, as assistant coach. After reaching the playoff quarter-finals, it was decided that Rob Wilson would take over the position of head coach for the 2015/16 season and Martin Jiranek, in addition to his duties as manager, would occupy the position of assistant coach.
Wilson led the Franks into the DEL playoff semi-finals in 2016, 2017 and 2018. At the beginning of May 2018, he asked Nuremberg to terminate his contract for personal reasons. The club complied with this request, successor was Kevin Gaudet , who had previously worked very successfully for the second division side Bietigheim. After only four DEL match days in the 2018/19 season, Gaudet was released, the reason given by the Franks was "different views on the tactical direction and leadership of the team". Under Gaudet's leadership, the team had won four games.
Venues
Since February 2001 the Nürnberg Ice Tigers have been playing in the Nürnberger Versicherung Arena , a multifunctional hall that was also used for the 2001 Ice Hockey World Championship in Germany . It can also be used for basketball , handball and indoor soccer .
Previously, the venerable stadium Linde on the exterior Bayreuther Straße played, originally for the Winter Olympics in 1936 of Garmisch-Partenkirchen was built.
The stadium was open on both sides and had only 800 seats, which were located in the middle of the main and opposite stands. The opposite stand was only a provisional tubular steel stand. After major renovations at the end of the 1980s, the capacity increased to 4,200 places. Despite the renovation, the demand was greater than the space available.
In 2001 the Nürnberg Ice Tigers played their last game in the "Linde". For the fans there was also a farewell jersey with the imprint Servus Linde to buy. In the same year the stadium was demolished and the “ Mercado ” shopping center was built in its place .
