List Of Frisk Tigers Seasons

Frisk Asker Ishockey is a Norwegian ice hockey club based in Asker. They are members of the highest Norwegian ice hockey league, Eliteserien (known as GET-ligaen for sponsorship reasons). The Tigers are the ice hockey department of IF Frisk Asker, a sports club founded in 1922. In 1935, the club began playing ice hockey, joining the newly established Norwegian Ice Hockey Association as its twelfth member. The "Tigers" nickname is a recent addition, used in recognition of IK Tigrene with whom Frisk had merged in 1969. As of 2010, they have completed forty-three seasons in the Eliteserien and have won 684 regular season games and five league titles.

Having spent their early years in the second level B-serien, Frisk briefly played in the top flight, then known as 1. divisjon, for a few seasons following World War II. For the most part, however, their achievements remained modest until the construction of the indoor ice rink Askerhallen-based club who had a strong team but nowhere to play, and the two clubs agreed to a merger. Frisk thus gained entry into the highest division for the first time in twenty years and were one of the leading teams in Norway during the 1970s, winning the Norwegian Championship twice. The club's fortunes then began to fade until reaching a low point in 1994, when they spent one season playing in the second tier. The Tigers have since enjoyed another period of success, making three appearances in the Finals during the 2000s and adding a third Norwegian Championship title in 2002.
