There are a lot of young guys here, and plenty that have no international experience at this level. It's nice for team USA to give some of these guys a look. An interesting pick is Chris Kreider (a rangers draft pick from last year). He played well for team USA in the world juniors this year. Also, go Andy Greene!! EDIT: Yandle typo fixed.

GermanDevil Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 (edited) The atmosphere sounds indeed awesome. The arena which is normally the home of the soccer club Schalke is one of the loudest in the German soccer league. Team Germany has impressed me so far, hopefully they can keep it up. I expect a much needed boost in popularity for hockey in Germany from this game and the whole tournament.

Neutral Zone Trap Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Here an updated pic GO GERMANY! Side note Eagle. Who is your favorite team in the Bundesliga ? I like several teams (some which may have dropped to the lower tier) Kaiserslautern, Borussia Munchengladbach, Bayer Leverskusen, and Shalke 04. I don't mind Dortmund, Cologne, Stuttgart, or even Bayern Munich. Please correct the spelling mistakes. PS. I've always had a massive respect for the German nation football team.

Neutral Zone Trap Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Werder Bremen is my favorite team as I am from northern Germany Ah, perhaps a little feeling for Hansa Rostock ? ( even though they are terrible) Bremen has risen through the years, similar to Chelsea in England. My favorite German players (all time) Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Franz Beckenbauer, and of course Jurgen Klinsmann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglejelly Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Denmark wins 2-1 in OT. The Danes are the big surprise so far with wins against Finland and the US. They were suppose to be the punching bag of the group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like they didn't really use players that just played in the Olympics, I guess to give them a rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
