Idrottsklubben Pantern, known as IK Pantern, were a Swedish professional ice hockey club based in Malmö, Sweden who mostly played in the Hockeyettan, the third tier of ice hockey in Sweden, before gaining promotion to the HockeyAllsvenskan in the 2015–16 season. The club participated on two occasions in the promotion qualifiers to Sweden's top flight, the Swedish Hockey League (SHL), without success before filing for bankruptcy following the 2018–19 season. The club was re-formed shortly thereafter under the new name Ishockeyklubben Pantern and will play the 2019–20 season in Hockeytrean, the fifth tier of ice hockey in Sweden.[1]
History
IK Pantern was founded in 1959. On June 23, 1960, the association's first annual meeting was held, whereby Göran Pettersson was elected chairman with Jan Magnusson as deputy, treasurer Lars-Erik Hansson and secretary Berth Danefors with Kjell Olofsson as deputy. The first official match of the Panther was played in December 1960 and ended with a 8-1 victory in over Lund IS.
The club was in danger of facing an automatic relegation prior to the 2019–20 season due to having insufficient funds in order to meet the requirements to play in HockeyAllsvenskan and later withdrew its place in the league. The league allowed Almtuna IS to fill the void left by IK Pantern.[2] On 7 June 2019 the club filed for bankruptcy.
