The 2022–23 SHL season is the 48th season of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). The regular season began on 17 September 2022 and is scheduled to end on 9 March 2023, where it will be then followed by the playoffs and the relegation playoffs.

Teams

The league consists of 14 teams; HV71 returned to the SHL after one season in the HockeyAllsvenskan, where they won the 2021–22 title.[1] Djurgårdens IF were relegated to the HockeyAllsvenskan, and as a result, Stockholm was not represented by a top-division team for the first time.[2]

Regular season

Each team plays 52 games, playing each of the other thirteen teams four times: twice on home ice, and twice away from home. Points are awarded for each game, where three points are awarded for winning in regulation time, two points for winning in overtime or shootout, one point for losing in overtime or shootout, and zero points for losing in regulation time. At the end of the regular season, the team that finishes with the most points is crowned the league champion.[citation needed]
