The Spengler Cup remains the wackiest tournament in hockey

Gang, the holiday season means spending time with your family, eating snacks and enjoying lots of sports.

And one of the most enduring holiday traditions in hockey is the annual Spengler Cup tournament in Switzerland. Held every year in Davos – in one of the most breath-taking buildings in all of sports with its iconic wooden roof – the Spengler Cup is an invite-only tournament that sees HC Davos welcome five teams for a sprint of a tournament.

The 2025 edition of the event will be the 97th time the Spengler Cup has been held, and features a mix of familiar teams and a brand-new entry. Here’s a rundown of the six teams headed to Davos on Boxing Day and what we’ll be looking for during the event.

HC Sparta Praha​


Hailing from Prague, Czechia, HC Sparta Praha compete in the Czech Extraliga, Czechia’s top domestic league. They were the top regular season team in 2024-25 but lost to the eventual champions Kometa Brno, in the semi-final round.

Former Flame forward Roman Horak and former Wranglers defender Mark Pysyk play for HC Sparta Praha.

HIFK​


Hailing from Helsinki, Finland, HIFK competes in the Liiga, Finland’s top domestic league. They finished fourth in the regular season in 2024-25.

HIFK features zero former Flames or Wranglers players, but their head coach is Olli Jokinen and one of his assistants is Toni Lydman.

HC Fribourg-Gotteron​


Hailing from Fribourg, Switzerland, HC Fribourg-Gotteron competes in the National League, Switzerland’s top domestic league. They finished sixth in the regular season in 2024-25. They won last season’s Spengler Cup.

HC Fribourg-Gotteron features former Flames netminder Reto Berra.

Canada​


Every year, Hockey Canada puts together a rag-tag group of Canadians – a mixture of players from European club teams and, more recently, the American Hockey League – to compete for the Spengler Cup. And Canada’s entry is tied with the hosts, HC Davos, for the most championships won at this event.

Canada’s entry this season features former Flames forward Derek Grant.

HC Davos​


The hosts of this event, HC Davos hails from Davos, Switzerland and competes in the National League. They were fifth in their league in the 2024-25 regular season. As mentioned, they’re tied with Canada for the most Spengler Cup championships over the years with 16.

HC Davos features former Flames forward Joakim Nordstrom, and Rasmus Andersson’s big brother, Calle, also plays for them.

U.S. Collegiate Selects​


A new wrinkle in this year’s Spengler Cup is the presence of the U.S. Collegiate Selects team. So, y’know how USA Hockey puts together a strong World Junior team every year? Well, they’ve also put together a group of college players – all too old to compete in the World Juniors – that will vie for the Spengler Cup instead. They’re led by Penn State head coach Guy Gadowsky, and features 14 NHL prospects – notably, Calgary product Aidan Fink and T.J. Hughes, tied for second in the NCAA in scoring as of right now.

Usually the Spengler Cup is an exercise in “Oh hey, I guess that former NHLer is still playing in Europe!” but the inclusion of the Collegiate Selects means that NHL clubs will be paying attention, as a standout performance could nudge some of the unsigned college prospects towards an NHL deal.

The Spengler Cup runs Dec. 26-31 in Davos, Switzerland and the games can be seen on TSN’s programming – check your listings for times and specific channels.

Can Zayne Parekh and Cole Reschny lead Canada to gold at the 2026 World Juniors?

It’s the holiday season, friends, and when it comes to the world of hockey, that means one of the best tournaments in sports: the IIHF’s World Junior Championship!

Held every year, the World Juniors pit the 10 top under-20 national teams head-to-head for supremacy, glory, and medals. If you want a preview of the upcoming NHL Draft, or a snapshot of the quality and quantity of prospects on their way to the NHL, the World Junior is a tremendous event. Plus, the hockey is fantastic.

The Calgary Flames will be represented by 2024 first-round pick Zayne Parekh and 2025 first-round pick Cole Reschny, who are both suiting up with Team Canada at this year’s event. But we ran through the rosters and schedule to provide a quick rundown of this year’s festivities.

For a more detailed snapshot, head over to Daily Faceoff, where our pal Steven Ellis is on the ground in Minnesota for the whole tournament! We also recommend Steven’s recent Top 50 ranking for the upcoming 2026 NHL Draft, as many of the top prospects are in action at the World Juniors.

The Flames have decisions to make on nine minor-league RFAs this spring

Friends, if you look at our rundowns of Calgary Flames prospects toiling in college and major junior hockey, you’re probably thinking to yourself, “Oh boy, there are a lot of players I’d like to see suit up with the Wranglers or Flames pretty soon.”

And yeah, the Flames have a lot of players they want to get into their pro development system and get on the path to the NHL. (Spoiler: for some players, the path is very short and direct.)

So, uh… who’s leaving to make room for these youngsters?

Well, the primary spot to look is usually pending restricted free agents at the minor-league level. These are usually guys that have been in the system and working on their game, but for one reason or another haven’t quite found the thing that’ll make them a successful pro and move them up the ladder.

This coming spring, the Flames have nine players on expiring deals that are eligible to become RFAs: goaltender Owen Say, blueliners Artem Grushnikov and Jeremie Poirier, and forwards William Strömgren, Carter King, Parker Bell, Lucas Ciona, Rory Kerins and Sam Morton.

We would say there are four guys we’re a bit concerned about right now: Grushnikov, Poirier, Bell and Ciona. In particular, we’re wondering about the two blueliners – Bell and Ciona have been in and out of the lineup, but when they’ve been in and playing their physical, up-tempo games, they’re quite good. But Grushnikov and Poirier have both been healthy scratches this season. With the Flames having oodles of young defenders in their pipeline, those two gentlemen may be under the gun in the second half to prove that they should remain in the Flames system.

Onto the updates!
