'''Vesa Helsinki''' (also known as '''Töölön Vesa''') is a sports club in [[Helsinki]], [[Finland]]. It was founded in 1906.

Vesa formerly had an ice hockey section which played in the top-tier [[SM-sarja]] during the 1950s and 1960s. They were not particularly successful in their six seasons spent in the top-level league, never finishing with a winning record or in the higher portion of the standings.

By the late 1960s, the hockey club had fallen into debt and faced the prospect of being disbanded. In 1967 it was sold to Aimo Mäkinen, who assumed half of the club's outstanding debt, along with all its players and its position in the second-level [[Suomi-sarja (1960-1974)|Suomi-sarja]]. Mäkinen also re-named the club [[Jokerit Helsinki]], which officially came into being on October 27, 1967.
