European Hockey League 1996/97
The 1996/97 season of the European Hockey League was the first edition of the competition of the International Ice Hockey Federation IIHF and took place parallel to the last edition of the European Cup . It was held between September 1996 and January 26, 1997. A total of 20 teams from twelve nations took part. The leagues from Finland, the Czech Republic and Sweden were each represented by three teams, while Russia and Germany each provided two participants.
As the first winner of the competition, the Final Four of which was held in the Elysée Arena in Turku , Finland , TPS Turku emerged from the Finnish SM-liiga , which was the first to win an international title and was immortalized in the Silver Stone Trophy . The Finnish team met the winner of the national championship competition at the beginning of the following season in order to play off the winner of the IIHF Super Cup .
The national champions from Sweden and Finland did not participate in the European Cup and started in the EHL. Otherwise, the sporting qualification was the responsibility of the respective countries. In order to fill the field of participants, the IIHF decided to invite teams from the densely populated cities of Europe in order to attract audiences in the metropolises. Since the HK ZSKA Moscow , CE Vienna , Manchester Storm and HC Milano 24 disappointed four such invited teams and failed in the preliminary round, the world association partially rejected this plan for the following year and placed more emphasis on the athletic performance of the individual teams.
Attendees
The 20 participants who attended the first event came from twelve different European leagues. The strongest among them had more than just one participant, including the Finnish SM-liiga , Swedish Elitserien and Czech Extraliga with three teams each, as well as the Russian Super League and the German Ice Hockey League with two teams. The national champions took part in the parallel European Cup - with the exception of the champions of Sweden and Finland, who waived the European Cup. The athletic qualification took place according to the final placements of the previous year. In addition, the International Ice Hockey Federation IIHF awarded some wild cards , including to the Manchester Storm with the recently built NYNEX Arena .

Group stage
In the group phase, which took place between September and December 1999, a total of 20 teams took part in five groups of four teams each. These determined the placements in the league system . The group first in each group and the three runners-up with the highest points reached the quarter-finals.
Group A
In Group A, the Finnish runner-up TPS Turku made it through to the quarter-finals as the only one of the four teams in the group. With the exception of the home game against Luleå HF from Sweden, which ended in a draw, the Finns won all games. Luleå, with seven points in second place, and the German representative Berlin Capitals , with six points third, lost too many points and failed. Leaving behind and without a win, Manchester Storm, representing the British Ice Hockey Superleague, brought up the rear of the group.

Group B
The balanced group B, in which each of the four teams could win at least once, saw the Russian representatives HK Dynamo Moscow and HC České Budějovice from the Czech Republic reach the quarter-finals. The progress of the Czechs was mainly characterized by three wins in the respective second legs, after they had only drawn two in the previous three games and were surprisingly defeated Vålerenga IF Oslo . The victory of Oslo was also their only one, whereby they were eliminated as the bottom of the group, as did Färjestad BK Karlstad as third in the table with 5: 7 points.

Group C
From Group C, HC Sparta Prague and HC Slovan Bratislava made it to the quarter-finals. While Bratislava was one of the positive appearances in the preliminary round, the Russian army club and series winner of the European Cup , HK CSKA Moscow , disappointed across the board and were eliminated with only three wins. The preliminary round was just as disappointing for the only representative from Austria, CE Vienna , who clearly lost all games, including two with eight or more goals difference.
For Prague, reaching the next round as top of the table was all the more astonishing, as the team suffered from protracted food poisoning from the trip to the second round game in Moscow , which subsequently forced them to postpone games.

Group D
In Pool D, the reigning Finnish champions Jokerit Helsinki became the favorites early on. After they had all won their first three games and the Kölner Haie and SC Bern - the other two contenders for group victory - had separated in a draw, they led the group unchallenged. Since neither Cologne nor Bern could take the maximum number of points from the second comparison, only the Finns reached the quarter-finals. The Italian representative HC Milano 24 was also eliminated with six defeats from six matches.

Final round
For the final round, the first-placed and the three second-placed runners-up of the five preliminary round groups qualified. In the quarter-finals, two teams met each other in the first and second leg. If both teams had won a game and had the same number of goals scored, or both games ended in a draw, the second game was followed by decisive overtime or, if necessary, a penalty shoot- out that started when the score was 0-0. The goal difference played no role. The four winning teams of the comparisons eventually reached the Final Four .
The semifinals and the two placement games were decided in just one duel. In the event of a tie after regular time, there was also an extension and, if necessary, a penalty shootout.

Quarter finals
After the group stage was over, two champions, four runner-ups and two teams that were placed further behind in the national championship qualified for the quarter-finals. The Czech Republic was the only country still represented with three teams in the competition, Finland with two.
While the teams from Turku and Moscow won the games between Turku and Litvínov as well as Moscow and Bratislava with two wins, in the purely Scandinavian duel between Gothenburg and Helsinki and the Czech duel between České Budějovice and Prague only Prague and Gothenburg won their home game surprisingly in the Hartwall Areena of Helsinki . Since the other games ended in a draw, Gothenburg and Prague could buy the ticket to the Final Four .

final
With a 5-2 win over Moscow, Turku won the first final of the European Hockey League and thus secured the Silver Stone Trophy for the first time . Turku striker Sami Mettovaara played a major role in winning the title with a hat trick in the final. The decisive factor for the win, however, was Turku's 3-2 opening goal halfway through the game, after the Muscovites had equalized 2-2 a minute earlier by two-time goalscorer Dmitri Chumachenko .
