2012–13 HC Slovan Bratislava season
The 2012–13 HC Slovan Bratislava season was the first season for Bratislava based club in Kontinental Hockey League.
Slovan opened the 2012–13 season with a home game against Ukrainian HC Donbass on 6 September 2012, losing 2–4 in front of a capacity crowd. The first win was achieved 4 days later by defeating Spartak Moscow 2–1 after shootout . During the NHL lockout between September 2012 and January 2013, two defenders Ľubomír Višňovský and Andrej Sekera enhanced the team. Slovan ended the season with 78 points as 6th of the Western conference and thus clinched the play-off in their first KHL season.[ 2] In the first play-off round Slovan played against Dynamo Moscow and lost all four matches.
During the regular season, Slovan had sold out 25 out of its 26 home games with an average attendance of 9,977 spectators which was the 7th highest average attendance in Europe.[ 1]
