HC Slavia Praha and HC Dukla Jihlava have won this season of the league, neither succeeded in the Extraliga qualification.

== Format ==
14 teams compete in the league, with the top 6 teams at the end of the regular season play qualifying for the playoffs. The teams that finish 7th through 10th play a play-in series (best-of-five) to determine who will join the top six into the playoff quarter-finals (best-of-seven). No final is played. Instead, two teams which win the semifinals advance to the qualifying group against two worst placed teams at the end of the Extraliga regular season. The better of these two teams after the regular season is the champion of this league for that season.
The four lowest ranked teams (11–14) after the regular season play in a play-out group (12 games, all regular-season matches are counted into the ranking). The worst team after 12 rounds is relegated to the Czech 2. Liga.
