Heimo Esports is the esports section of the floorball club Westend Indians, hailing from Espoo, Finland. The club has been running their esports section since the fall of 2022 and are now entering NHL esports for the first time. The Esports section for Finnish floorball club Westend Indians have acquired the former roster of JANO Esports, who made an excellent Playoff push back in their rookie season in the European top 16 last season. This will be the first time this organization is seen in the NHL esports scene but the partnership seems to be a great fit, with players in their roster more or less invested in Floorball as a sport outside of their NHL esports careers. "NHL esports has shown a steady growth throughout the past few years and an interest towards the sport has been there ever since Heimo Esports was founded. I think the greatest aspects of esports, being dynamic team play and individual mechanic ability, are heavily present in NHL esports. Our expectations are high and the team is stronger than ever, we are ready for puck drop. GLHF!" - Samuel "Mäyrä" Lindholm, GM of Heimo Esports In their inaugural season among the European top 16, the new Heimo Esports roster managed to surprise several doubters by squeaking into the Playoffs as the #8 seed, seeing an impressive season individually by rookie of the season Wade @Wpaanane Paananen and impressively mature team play from the rookie squad. The roster is looking to continue on their great form and haven't made any changes to their lineup in the offseason.

"Our contract with JANO was up and the opportunity to sign with Heimo Esports presented itself. It was a team decision to make the move in search of fresh new wind for our sails. I'm obviously hoping for success in the upcoming tournaments and I believe we can do even better than in ECL '23 Winter."
