Photographers at Champions Hockey League games capture some amazing moments, be it teams celebrating crucial goals, fans cheering in eye-catching ways, stunning or specific features of venues across Europe or just giving photos an extra twist or a fun angle.

As a pan-European club competition, the variety of photos is outstanding and picking some that stand out and giving you, the fans, the chance to vote for your favourite, all while highlighting the people behind the lens, is something we love to do.

After the Semi-Finals Return Games, fans on our Instagram voted this picture as their favourite, taking a record 49% of the vote! The picture taken by Fredrik Sundvall captures EV Zug's goaltender Leonardo Genoni taking a moment alone to focus and think ahead of the start of the game against Luleå Hockey, what a cool moment to capture!
