Kalevan Pallo (KalPa) is a professional ice hockey team which competes in the Finnish Liiga.

Established in 1929 as Sortavalan Palloseura in Sortavala, the club relocated to Kuopio in 1945 after its original hometown had been annexed by the Soviet Union.

During its Sortavala years, the club was not active in ice hockey, but competed in association football, bandy, and pesäpallo instead.

Hartnell purchased a minority share of the team after getting financial advice from Kimmo Timonen during a road trip to Boston.

After winning the Mestis championship, KalPa returned to SM-liiga for the 2005–06 season, after being relegated six years earlier in 1999.
