[[HC Nové Zámky]] were the defending Champions after defeating [[ASC Corona 2010 Brașov (ice hockey)|ASC Corona Braşov]] in the 2014 Championship, but they lost their championship to [[DVTK Jegesmedvék|Miskolci Jegesmedvék]] in a 4–0 sweep against them.

The [[2015–16 MOL Liga season]] was the 8th season of the MOL Liga. [[DVTK Jegesmedvék]] was the defending champion after defeating [[HC Nové Zámky]] in the 2014-2015 season.

They once again successfully defended their title after beating [[MAC Budapest]] in the finals, this time in 5 games (4-1).
