Seider beat pretty decisively by Wolanin on that one.
Seider is a big guy, who isn’t going to get up to speed like a smaller guy would. On the bigger ice the faster skaters beat him wide like that, but it won’t happen so much on our ice.

The game could be 3-3. Germans have too bad finnishing ability. Yesterday they should have won. They play nice hockey, but cant finnish.

Germany is tired, the minds are done, this game was done before it even started.
Now Germany has to fight in order not to be blown out.

That's always their biggest problem, I remember when it used to be Switzerlands. The skill level is getting better, it will come.

I doubt it. The game is actually pretty even possession-wise and scoringchances. Germany just cant finnish.

Germany's international success in men's tournaments is more recent so it's understandable that they aren't quite as motivated for the game.

They have absolutely nobody with scoring ability. Even if Draisaitl was here 99% of offensive ability would rely on him.

They remind me of Finnish national team’s of the past, always playing well and sacrificing body to block shots just to end up losing purely because of lack of finishing.
