  • Lönsamhet I FM-Ligan För Ishockey Profitability in the Finnish Liiga Kan Professionell Ishockey Fungera Som Lönsam Verksamhet I Finland?
    Lönsamhet i FM-ligan för ishockey Profitability in the Finnish Liiga Kan professionell ishockey fungera som lönsam verksamhet i Finland? Max Gotthardt Examensarbete Förnamn Efternamn Företagsekonomi EXAMENSARBETE Arcada Utbildningsprogram: Företagsekonomi Identifikationsnummer: 6082 Författare: Max Gotthardt Arbetets namn: Lönsamhet i FM-ligan för ishockey Kan professionell ishockey fungera som lönsam verksamhet i Finland? Handledare (Arcada): Maj-Britt Granström Uppdragsgivare: - Sammandrag: Arbetets mål är att undersöka lönsamheten inom den finska professionella ishockey ligan och vilka faktorer som bidrar till ekonomisk framgång. FM-ligan för ishockey är en av Finlands mest följda idrottsserier och den enda fullständigt professionella inhemska serien. Arbetet utgörs av en kvantitativ bokslutsanalys med nyckeltal och en teorigrund. Teorigrunden är baserad på aktuella artiklar samt en intervju med FM-ligalaget HIFK:s VD Jukka Valtanen. Bokslutets delar och uppbyggnad behandlas inför den empiriska forskningen. Bokslutsanalysen täcker en 5 års period, där lönsamheten, likviditeten och soliditeten för de enskilda företagen granskas. I kombination med teorigrunden kan man dra en slutsats om lönsamheten och framtiden för dessa företag. Lagen har väldigt stora personalkostnader årligen vilket orsakar för många företag tryck på likviditetssituationen. Men för att uppnå goda resultat krävs det för de flesta lag framgång på isen, och som förutsättning för det måste man investera på personalen. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att även om det finns några få lag som gör goda resultat på årlig basis, så planerarmajoriteten av lagen runt ett nollresultat och försöker upprätthålla det de har för tillfället. Vissa lag har stora problem att hållas på ytan på egen hand och har behövt och kommer fortfarande att behöva utomstående stöd för att hållas kvar i ligan.

  • Mestis-Seurojen Asema Suomalaisessa Jääkiekkoyhteisössä Seuratoimijoiden Tulkitsemana
    MESTIS-SEUROJEN ASEMA SUOMALAISESSA JÄÄKIEKKOYHTEISÖSSÄ SEURATOIMIJOIDEN TULKITSEMANA Teemu Suvinen Liikunnan yhteiskuntatieteiden pro gradu -tutkielma Liikuntatieteellinen tiedekunta Jyväskylän yliopisto Syksy 2020 TIIVISTELMÄ Suvinen, T. 2020. Mestis-seurojen asema suomalaisessa jääkiekkoyhteisössä seuratoimijoiden tulkitsemana. Liikuntatieteellinen tiedekunta, Jyväskylän yliopisto, liikunnan yhteiskuntatieteiden pro gradu -tutkielma, 129 s., 2 liitettä. Jääkiekko on Suomen suosituin urheilulaji, joka monilla mittareilla mitattuna menestyy nyt jopa paremmin kuin koskaan. On kuitenkin yksi huolenaihe, joka toistuu keskusteluissa kerta toisensa jälkeen: Mestiksen asema sarjajärjestelmässä, jossa SM-liigassa pelaa 15 joukkuetta eikä sarjaan voi nousta urheilullisin perustein karsintojen kautta. Monien laji-ihmisten mielestä tällainen sarjajärjestelmämalli ei tee hyvää suomalaiselle jääkiekolle. Mestiksen näivettymisestä ja seurojen huolestuttavasta tilasta on keskusteltu paljon mediassa, mutta akateemista tutkimusta ilmiöstä ei juuri ole tuotettu. Siksi aiheen tutkiminen on perusteltua. Mestiksen ja SM-liigan väliset karsinnat poistettiin kauden 2012–2013 jälkeen ja käyttöön otettiin niin kutsuttu lisenssimenettely. Seuraavien vuosien aikana SM-liiga laajentui 15 joukkueen sarjaksi. Mestiksen suurseurat Jukurit, KooKoo ja Sport nostettiin juuri lisenssimenettelyn turvin pääsarjaan. Karsintojen poistaminen ja kolmen suurseuran poistuminen on horjuttanut Mestiksen dynamiikkaa. Samaan aikaan Mestistäkin koettelevat koko urheilukentän suuret

    NEW YORK RANGERS PROSPECT REPORT: DEC. 14 • Brett Berard was named to the United States’ roster for the 2021 IIHF World Junior Championship, and he will be playing in the tournament for the first time in his career. The Rangers’ fifth round pick (134th overall) in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft is the second-youngest player on the United States’ roster and one of only six players born in 2002 who will represent the United States in the tournament. • Dylan Garand was named to Canada’s roster for the 2021 IIHF World Junior Championship, and he will be playing in the tournament for the first time in his career. The Rangers’ fourth round pick (103rd overall) in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft is the second-youngest player (and the youngest goaltender) on Canada’s roster for the tournament. Garand has the opportunity to become the second goaltender drafted by the Rangers in the NHL Entry Draft Era (since 1979) to play for Canada in the IIHF World Junior Championship, joining Dan Cloutier, who did so in 1995 (note – Doug Soetaert represented Canada in the tournament in 1975 as a 19- year-old before he was selected by the Rangers in the 1975 NHL Amateur Draft; at the time, the eligibility age for the Draft was 20 years old). • Braden Schneider was named to Canada’s roster for the 2021 IIHF World Junior Championship, and he will be playing in the tournament for the first time in his career. The Rangers’ first round pick (19th overall) in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft skated in 60 games with the Brandon Wheat Kings of the Western Hockey League (WHL) last season, registering seven goals and 35 assists for 42 points, along with a plus-nine rating and 42 penalty minutes.
