The 2005–06 Southern Professional Hockey League season was the second season of the Southern Professional Hockey League. The regular season began October 21, 2005, and ended April 12, 2006, after a 56-game regular season and a six-team playoff. The Knoxville Ice Bears won their first SPHL championship.

Preseason

[edit]

The Asheville Aces,[2] Macon Trax,[3] and Winston-Salem Polar Twins[4] all folded following the 2004–05 season. Replacing them were the Florida Seals[5] and Pee Dee Cyclones.[6]

A new playoff structure was announced, with the top seed and sixth seed playing each other in a best-of-5-game series, with the winner advancing to the championship. The second and fifth, and third and fourth seeds each play a best-of-3-game series, with the winners meeting in another 3-game series to determine the second finalist.[7]
