We’re excited to announce that XPS Network will be part of Hockey Performance Xchange 2026 as an official event sponsor later this month.

Taking place on May 28-29 at Malmö Arena in Sweden, HPX brings together coaches, performance staff, sports scientists, and practitioners from across Europe and North America for two days focused on learning, sharing ideas, and talking hockey performance. The event has quickly become one of the best places in the sport to exchange practical insights and connect with people working inside elite environments every day.

“Having XPS Network as a partner at Hockey Performance Xchange strengthens the connection between performance, data, and daily practice in elite hockey,” says Robert Cretney, the HPX director.

That connection is a big reason why we’re genuinely looking forward to being there. HPX brings together exactly the kind of people XPS is built for: coaches, medical teams, analysts, and performance staff all working together to improve communication, planning, and player development inside their organizations.

XPS Users Featured Among the Speakers

We’re also proud to see several XPS users included in this year’s speaker lineup.

One of them is Erik Jansson from Frölunda HC, one of Sweden’s top hockey organizations with most NHL draft picks in Europe and 5 Champions League titles. Frölunda uses XPS to help connect coaches, medical staff, and performance teams across the club, creating a smoother day-to-day workflow and better communication between departments.

“I communicate through XPS Health with the coaches, the GM, and the medical team, so everyone sees the same player status.” – Rasmus Bergström, Rehab Coordinator, Frölunda HC

Also speaking is Marko Haverinen from Tappara Tampere, a club that has built one of the strongest cultures in European hockey in recent years. Tappara’s success has been driven by consistency, preparation, and strong collaboration throughout the organization.

“I think it’s a core value for us that we’re a club-led and club-directed organization, that every team has their own responsibilities and actions.” – Kimmo Vähä-Ruohola, Director of Player Development, Tappara Tampere

Also joining the speaker lineup are several professionals from organizations using XPS in their daily environments, including Ludvig Nilsson from Rögle BK and Stephen Breisner from Malmö Redhawks. Together with speakers from clubs across the SHL, Liiga, and NHL environments, they’ll bring practical insights and real-world experience from some of hockey’s top performance programs.

See you in Malmö!

We’re looking forward to a great couple of days in Sweden! Meeting people from across the hockey world, catching up with existing XPS users, and hearing conversations around where the game is heading next.

“As someone based here in Malmö, it’s especially exciting to see an initiative like HPX brought to the city. I’m really looking forward to meeting both existing and hopefully many new XPS users, while connecting with people who are passionate about developing the game. A big credit as well to Rob and Freddie for putting together what I believe can become a fantastic meeting place for hockey performance across Europe.” – Gustav Rosqvist, Sideline Sports Sweden
