Lidl Hockey Games

Summarize
Perspective

The second event of the season was a four-nations tournament in Södertälje, Sweden during 6 to 9 November 2024. Officially called the Lidl Hockey Games, it was the first WEHT tournament with a title sponsor to be hosted in Sweden.[9] The core WEHT national teams participated and all games were played at Scaniarinken.[10][11][12]

Czechia secured three victories – two in regulation and one in overtime – to win the tournament. Finland placed second, with two wins and one loss, and Sweden placed third, with one win, one overtime loss, and one loss in regulation. Switzerland finished last with zero points after notching only one goal across their three losses.[13]

With four assists in three games, Finnish defender Ronja Savolainen led the tournament in scoring. Teammate Susanna Tapani ranked second, with a goal and two assists. Czech centre Kateřina Mrázová and Finnish centre Sanni Vanhanen tied for third on the tournament scoring chart, with three assists each. In total, the tournament's top-ten scorers[a] featured six Finnish players, three Czech players, and three Swedish players, led by Lina Ljungblom (2+0). Rahel Enzler scored Switzerland's only goal of the tournament unassisted and was the only Swiss player to record a point.

Eighteen year old Barbora Dalecká of Czechia and Salla Sivula of Finland both recorded shutouts in their respective match played and topped the tournament goaltending table with perfect marks across 60 minutes in play (MIP). The Lidl Hockey Games served as the two goaltenders' senior national team debuts.[14][15] Finland's Anni Keisala recorded the best statistics of goalies playing in more than one game, earning a 93.9 save percentage (S%) and 1.55 goals against average (GAA) in 116 minutes on ice, and was named Best Goaltender of the tournament.[16] Andrea Brändli was Switzerland's top performing goaltender, with a 91.7 S% and 3.00 GAA in 60 MIP, and Emma Söderberg led Swedish netminders, with a 90.0 S% and 1.00 GAA in 60 MIP.

  1. The tournament's list of top-ten scorers included three players tied for tenth place, resulting in a total of twelve players ranked within the top-ten.

6-Nations in Tampere

Summarize
Perspective

The third event of the season was a 6-Nations Tournament in Tampere, Finland during 11 to 15 December 2024. In addition to the four core WEHT teams, the Canada women's national development team and the United States collegiate women’s national select team participated.[27][28][29] Games were played at Hakametsä, officially known as Tampereen jäähalli or Tampere Ice Stadium. Unlike the other 2024–25 WEHT tournaments, the six-nations in Tampere was played in two stages: a group stage followed by a placement round.[30]

It was reported that the national programs involved had tacitly agreed to focus their roster selections on young players in senior national team pipelines.[31] While such an agreement was not explicitly announced by any national team, the rosters of all six teams were dominated by players in the 18 to 24 age group, many of whom were actively playing or were committed to play college ice hockey at the time of the tournament.
