The team has previously been known as Metelitsa Chelyabinsk, Nika Chelyabinsk, Kazak-Uralsky Chelyabinsk, and Fakel Chelyabinsk.
The team is a part of the Traktor Chelyabinsk hockey organization, which also operates Traktor Chelyabinsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), Chelmet Chelyabinsk of the VHL, Belye Medvedi Chelyabinsk of the MHL, and a number of youth and junior teams.
History
Founded in Chelyabinsk in 1997 as Metelitsa (Russian: Метелица, lit. 'Blizzard'), the club made its debut in the second round of the 1997–98 Russian Women's Hockey League (RWHL) season. Yelena Tyushnyakova, an ice hockey defenceman better known as an Olympic speed skater, was the first captain of Metelitsa. The team struggled in their inaugural season, recording a -165 goal differential and finishing at the bottom of the league.
Prior to the 1998–99 season, the team was renamed as Nika (Russian: Ника). In 2000, the name was changed to Kazak-Uralsky (Russian: Казак-Уральский, lit. 'Cossack-Urals'). During 2002 to 2014, the team was called Fakel (Russian: Факел, lit. 'Torch').
On 5 March 2014, the team joined the HC Tractor organization and their name was changed to Belye Medveditsy.[1] On 8 March 2015, the team was dissolved for financial reasons.
