==Franchise history==
Donbass-2 was created following the split of [[HC Donbass]], following its joining of the [[Russian Major League]] (VHL) and the creation of the [[Professional Hockey League]] (PHL) of [[Ukraine]]. In its first season, Donbass-2 acted as a [[farm team]] for the parent Donbass club, finishing 2nd in the inaugural PHL regular season, and captured the national championship in the playoffs, defeating [[Sokil Kyiv]] in the finals with the aid of [[Oleksandr Materukhin]] and [[Stepan Goryachevskikh]] from the parent club;<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.championat.com/hockey/article-118811-desjat-zvjozd-chempionata-pkhl.html |title="Чемпионат.com" подводит итоги чемпионата Украины по хоккею - Чемпионат |access-date=2012-05-08 |archive-date=2016-03-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160314190152/http://www.championat.com/hockey/article-118811-desjat-zvjozd-chempionata-pkhl.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> who had also defeated Sokil for the national title the prior season. Following HC Donbass' announcement of joining the [[Kontinental Hockey League]], team owner and president [[Borys Kolesnikov]] announced that Donbass-2 would continue to act as a farm team for the KHL team. Moreover, the team would place an emphasis on the development of [[junior ice hockey]] players, limiting the roster to those under the age of 25, with focus on 17- to 21-year-olds.<ref>http://www.hcdonbass.com/home/news/news/17538?lang=ru</ref>
===Origins===
Donbass made its first appearance in 2001, participating in Belarus' and Ukraine's respective entry divisions, earning bronze medals in each league's finals. The team would be dissolved shortly thereafter, however.<ref name=hcdbhistory>{{cite web|title=Club History|url=http://hcdonbass.com/home/club/history?lang=en|work=HCDonbass.com|accessdate=11 September 2011}}</ref>
In 2005 the team was reformed, reapplying for participation in the 1st division of the [[Ukrainian Major League]]. A lack of artificial ice in [[Donetsk]] forced the team to practice on Lake Yasinovataya.<ref name=hcdbhistory></ref> On only three weeks of practice, the team still managed to win goal in its respective division. Donbass would lose to [[ATEK Kyiv]] the following March, failing to earn promotion to the top national division. In the years that followed, though the team was promoted, it remained near the bottom of the standings on an annual basis.<ref name=hcdbhistory></ref>


The team was dissolved in 2013 following their second PHL championship in a win against [[HC Kompanion-Naftogaz]].<ref>http://hcdonbass.com/news/phl/kompy/</ref> [[Bilyi Bars]] would assume Donbass-2's role as farm-team affiliate in the PHL, while Molodaya Gvardia would act as HC Donbass' junior affiliate in the MHL.<ref>http://hcdonbass.com/news/phl/v_chempionate_ukrainy_khk_donbass_budet_predstavlen_farm_klubom/</ref>
===Kolesnikov era===
Fortunes for the club changed in 2010 when owner [[Borys Kolesnikov]] gained full control of the team,<ref>{{cite news|last=Leshchenko|first=Serhiy|title=Борис Колесніков: Чому зібрався в Києві податковий майдан?

Under Kulikov, the team would extend a record 27-game win streak in the[[Ukrainian Hockey Championship]] on their pace to winning the national championship for the first time.<ref name=hcdbhistory></ref> With the win, Donbass became the first non-Kiev based team to win the national title. The win also secured the club entry to the 2011-12 [[IIHF Continental Cup]], the third round of which Donetsk will host.

Following the 2011 Ukrainian League season, Donbass applied for and was given membership to the [[Russian Major League]]. A vast majority of championship winning roster from the 2010-11 season were cut from the roster as the team rebuilt for its freshman year in the VHL. While the primary team would compete in Russia, Donbass also iced a team in the newly formed [[Professional Hockey League]] of Ukraine.

In July, 2011, Donbass trained for the upcoming season in [[Ontario]] and held an exhibition game against the [[Ontario Hockey League]] all-star team. Donbass won the fight-filled game 4-1 and was reported to have garnered overwhelming fan support from the local [[Ukrainian diaspora]], accounting for approximately 500 of the 550 in attendance.<ref name=ohl>{{cite news|title=HC Donbas won the first match at the training camp in Canada|url=http://news.sevrugin.com/node/26566|accessdate=16 September 2011|date=23 July 2011}}</ref>

===Logo===
The team's original colors of 2001 were blue and grey and featured a logo representing a [[hockey puck]], with a [[hockey stick]] overlain. On November 14, 2008 the club changed their logo and team colors to the current scheme of red, black, and white. As part of this change, the team's name was changed from the Ukrainian spelling (Хокейний Клуб Донбас, ''Khokeinyi Klub Donbas'') to Russian (Хоккейный Клуб Донбасс, ''Khokkeynyi Klub Donbass''). The team again altered its logo in 2010, where it remains currently. The modern Donbass logos feature prominently two [[spoil tip]]s, which represent the city's strong ties to the steel and coal mining industry. The change from a metallic script to white is meant to symbolize "a blank page".<ref name=hcdonbasslogo>{{cite web|title=Club Logo||url=http://hcdonbass.com/home/club/attributes?lang=en|work=HCDonbass.com|accessdate=11 September 2011}}</ref>

In its first season, Donbass-2 acted as a farm team for the parent Donbass club, finishing 2nd in the inaugural PHL regular season, and captured the national championship in the playoffs, defeating Sokil Kyiv in the finals with the aid of Oleksandr Materukhin and Stepan Goryachevskikh from the parent club;[1] who had also defeated Sokil for the national title the prior season. Following HC Donbass' announcement of joining the Kontinental Hockey League, team owner and president Borys Kolesnikov announced that Donbass-2 would continue to act as a farm team for the KHL team. Moreover, the team would place an emphasis on the development of junior ice hockey players, limiting the roster to those under the age of 25, with focus on 17- to 21-year-olds.[2]
