Elite Prospects Notes and Trivia

Helsingin Jääkiekkoklubi, also known as HJK, is the successor of Helsingin Jalkapalloklubi. It was created in 1972 after its predecessor opted to focus solely on football. The team first attempted to a merger with Karhu-Kissat, but opted to part ways following its first season in 1972-73.
