Not surprised at all. He helped Germany get to it's World Championship medal round since the 1950's in 2021. Very impressive.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Wouldn't be surprised if he wears a letter for this tournament.

 

[Go Wings]

Oooooo the Germans, I'm sooo scared

I was too lazy to upload the Simpsons meme.

 

[Oddbob]

No offence, but not like Germany is loaded with talent, so not even a little surprising he makes the cut. Not as slight in Moritz at all, but Germany only has maybe half a roster of NHL players to pick from.

Congrats Young Goat!

Dumb a** Sens fans are very sour Stutzle wasn’t one of the first 3 lol

He's quoting Mr. Burns from the Simpsons. It's not meant to be a slight. Just a bit of goofing about.

 

[RedWingzz]

Olympics?

He got dangled by Patrik Laine a couple games ago. This guy is a massive bust.

Their defence is pretty bad, but it's just great that Seider has to play over his head against best players in the World. Olympic Tournament is just good for his development, he becomes a diamond when he has to face some damn tough assignments.

It's great to see that Hockey Nation rising. World will need more legit hockey Nations and Germany is very potential to rise on the TOP6, over the Czechs, Slovaks or Switzerland.

Big country, lot of people and lot of money.

Kahun (ex-EDM) - Draisaitl (EDM) - Reichel (CHI)
Elias (not drafted) - Stützle (OTT) - Peterka (BUF) strong U20 line.
Bökk (STL) - Sturm (MIN) - Rieder (BUF)
Michaelis (VAN) - Bergmann (SJS) - Kuhnhackl (ex-NYI)

X - Seider (DET)
X - X
X - Holzer (at Europe)


Grubauer
X (if Greiss is banned)

That's kind of the ugly truth. No future defencemen yet. Just guys playing at Europe.

Forward core is young and the whole goup is generally in prime somewhere after 5 years.

 

[Oddbob]

Why would Greiss be banned?

Yes, but what are his busts/60?

The German national program has had issues with him in the past. As recently as this year, they cut ties with him over his "values."

You can read the HFBoards thread about it here, which will satisfy everyone's opinions that have been discussed:
Thomas Greiss retires from national team after controversies about his political statements

The primary sources are all going to be in German. As a note, I'd ask we not discuss the politics involved in this thread. I just wanted to answer to hockey related question as to the rift between Greiss and his German national team career.

[OneMoreTry]

[SpookyTsuki]

Good for him.

Pretty dumb comment, especially after all the trouble the Commie Nazis have caused.

#neverforget

Even Germany agrees that Apple Seider >>> Timoaster Strudel

My opinions are only 99% represented in that thread, and I wish to contribute the remaining 1%.

I really.... and I mean really, like German beer. It's so good, Bench!
