Register for Competitive Division Qualifier #1 (Oct 4) 🇫🇮 Register for Competitive Division Qualifier #2 (Oct 5) 🇫🇮 Register for Amateur Division Qualifier (Oct 4) 🇫🇮 This year’s tournament comes with a few key changes. Unlike last year, where some finalist pairs received direct invitations, every player – including the tournament’s headliner Erik @Eki Tammenpää – will need to battle through the qualifiers to earn their place. Another highly requested addition is the brand-new Amateur Division, offering a lower-barrier path for more casual players to join the action. “After last year’s success, we were excited to team up with ENCE again to take this tournament to the next level. The 2v2 format is truly unique in NHL – you won’t see it anywhere else at this scale. We’ve partnered with amazing sponsors who make this all possible. Nikke and I are ready to defend our title – come challenge us if you dare!” said tournament ambassador and reigning champion, Eki.

The Spring season in the Neo division is over, and Personal Rainerit have emerged as clear champions after defeating Fladie Faxes 3–1 in the final series. It was a dominant campaign from start to finish, with Personal Rainerit losing only one single game all season—and it came in the finals against Fladie Faxes. Their run was nearly flawless. They topped their group with 14 wins in 14 games, including one overtime win, scoring at will with over 10 goals per game on average while conceding just 2 per game. That offensive firepower carried over into the playoffs, where they swept past opponents and faced Fladie Faxes in the final. The final series showed they could handle adversity. After taking Game 1 with a convincing 7–4 win, they stumbled in Game 2, dropping it 2–3 in a tight battle—their only loss of the entire season. But they answered immediately with a statement 7–2 victory in Game 3 and finished the job in Game 4 with a decisive 5–1 win to clinch the title.   Offensive Powerhouses The team’s top scorers lit up both the regular season and playoffs. @ttskede was the league’s undisputed offensive leader with 121 points in 14 regular-season games (68 goals, 53 assists) and kept it going in the playoffs with 86 points in 16 games. @Elop-_- was equally lethal, adding 80 points in the regular season and 68 in the playoffs. They weren’t alone. @hugobrann72, @Veljenpoika69, @Maltseviii, @joku_johonki and backups like @Mallungoldi and @J20NA01 added depth and balance, making the lineup dangerous from top to bottom. Reliable in Goal In net, @The-Tankki235 and @JonttuM12 shared duties and delivered when it counted. Both goalies posted solid numbers with save percentages over 80%, helping keep the team steady even when games got tight.   A True Statement Season Personal Rainerit’s run in Neo was nothing short of dominant. Their ability to score in bunches, bounce back immediately from their lone loss, and finish series with authority showed they were a level above the competition. With this title, they’ve proven they’re ready for the next step and will be a team to watch going forward.
