In 1997 the club sold the Extraliga license to HC Karlovy Vary, and was thus relegated to the second-level league.

But then a rapid fall came and the team fell from 5th place to 13th, thus it had to play play-outs and then relegation play-offs. They ended on 1st place, staying in league with Piráti Chomutov.
