The 1944–45 season of Division 2, then the second tier of ice hockey in Sweden, consisted of 35 clubs divided into six geographical groups.

The group winners were Mora IK (norra), UoIF Matteuspojkarna (östra), Västerås SK (Västmanland), Forshaga IF (västra), Södertälje IF (Sörmland), and Atlas Diesels IF (södra).

Three clubs were relegated from Division 2 to play in their local district leagues for 1945–46 season, these being IFK Lidingö, IF Eyra, and GoIF Tjalve.

The four best teams from the qualifier were promoted to Division 1 for the 1945–46 season, replacing the four bottom teams from the 1944–45 Division 1 season (Sandvikens IF and Surahammars IF from the north group, and Skuru IK and IF Göta from the southern group).

Mora IK, Västerås SK, Södertälje IF, and Atlas Diesels IF were promoted as a result of this qualifier.
