The fourth season of Svenska Serien, at the time Sweden's top-tier hockey league, was scheduled to be held over the winter of 1938–39, but due to a harsh winter, the series was played as a shortened single-round robin tournament in the autumn of 1939, immediately prior to the start of the 1939–40 season. For this reason, there was no promotion or relegation as a result of this tournament. Hammarby IF went undefeated, winning all seven matches, to win the league title. This was their first time Hammarby finished first-place in Svenska Serien, and the fourth time Hammarby finished first in Sweden's first-tier league.
The 1939–40 Svenska Serien season was the fifth season of the Svenska Serien, the top level ice hockey league in Sweden. Hammarby IF won the league title for the second consecutive season.

The 1942–43 Division 2 season was the second tier of ice hockey in Sweden in for the 1942–43 season. The league operated a system of promotion and relegation, to the first-tier Svenska Serien and to district-level hockey leagues. The league consisted of four groups, two with seven clubs and two with six, giving a total of 26 clubs. The group winners, Brynäs IF (north), IF Aros (central), Nacka SK (east), and Årsta SK (south) won their groups, and continued to play in a qualifier for promotion to Svenska Serien, which resulted in Brynäs and Nacka being promoted to the 1943–44 Svenska Serien. IFK Stockholm finished last in Division 2 North, and as a result were relegated to their local level hockey league.
Division 2 was the second tier of ice hockey in Sweden for the 1943–44 season. The league was divided into six groups, and the winner of each group was promoted to Division 1 for the 1944–45 season. This change from previous seasons—in which the group winners had played a qualifier which resulted in only two teams being promoted—was prompted from the change in format from the eight-team Svenska Serien to a twelve-team Division 1 following the 1943–44 season. Sandvikens IF, IF Göta, Surahammars IF, IFK Mariefred, Tranebergs IF, and Skuru IK won their groups, and were therefore promoted into the new Division 1.
