The new ECL '25: Winter - Neo season is here, with the action set to begin today Sunday, November 17th. We’d like to extend a warm welcome to all the new players and teams joining the league, as well as those returning from previous seasons.
With five weeks of regular-season play ahead, the competition is about to kick off as teams battle for a spot at the top of the standings. Which team has perfected the Golden One-T? Who will dominate with bone-crushing hits? Which players will rise above the rest as the future stars of ECL? These questions—and many more—will be answered as the season unfolds.
Group 1
Davemiehet made a strong run to the semifinals in ECL '24: Spring but after losing some key talent didn't manage to keep their level and take the step up the ladder. However, they are expected to have another strong season and will certainly be a team to watch. Meanwhile, CzechoSvizzera Ravens performed well in the pre-season tournament, reaching the semifinals. If they can maintain that momentum, they could be an interesting team to follow this season.
Group 2
Lassen Lampaat is one of the more experienced teams in the league. Founded in 2019, the team reached the semifinals in the pre-season and is now looking to make a return to the higher divisions. Viitapohja Vikings, who played in the higher divisions last year, have recruited some completely new ECL players who are committed to playing the majority of the season. Either way, they are also expected to be a strong contender this year.
Group 3
Taifun Veterans dominated their group in the ECL' 24: Spring season but fell short in the first round of playoffs as the top seed. Whether they can carry over their strong regular season form and convert it into success in the playoffs will be seen. This group also features a rematch from the pre-season tournament, as Red Bull Munich Academy faces Uotilan Pallo. Both teams made it to the quarterfinals with impressive offensive performances, making this match-up one to watch.
Group 4
Group 4 is set to feature this season's most anticipated rivalry “The Battle of Clowns”: Clowns On Ice versus Twisted Clowns, set to be played on the 1st of December. Don’t forget to keep an eye on The Flying Elbows, another team that had a strong showing in the pre-season and could make it far this season.
Group 5
Fallen Rangers dominated their way through the pre-season playoffs, losing only one match on their path to victory. If they can maintain that strong form throughout the season they will be the team to beat. Karhukissat, who managed to split a high-scoring series with them in pre-season, will be looking to get the upper hand in their upcoming rematch, making it another exciting match-up to watch.
Good luck to all the teams as they hit the virtual ice. Have fun and let the games begin!
