Another fun piece of trivia: the translator was Don Koharski. Not THAT Don Koharski. That would stretch believability.

If anyone is interested... Hecht has played 7periods in Germany now.

1Goal 6Assists +5.

Since Hecht arrived, Pommers started scoring. In his first game with Hecht, Pommers had 3G and his totals since his arrival are 4G 3A in those 7 periods.

Thanks for the update, but everyone will probably be able to figure out what I'm thinking.

Since it is the festive season I won't say it, but uuuggghhh!!

[Spndnchz]

Pominville and Hecht are goin' crazy in Germany.  22 points in the last four games.

Some highlights from last Friday's game here

I am loving it: 10 points in 4 games. Nice.

They have always worked well on the same line (e.g. Hecht-Briere-Pommers)

[bunomatic]

Pominville scores in o.t. Mannheim stuns Canada at Spengler cup. Three minutes into overtime Pomms scores on a breakaway.

I should add that although the Spengler is usually filled with castoffs and dogs that couldn't get their teams in the playoffs this year Canadas roster has some high profile players due to the lockout. Mannheim blocked a ton of shots apparently and played  well defensively

Blast from the past... speaking of the Spengler Cup,

Anybody remember when the Rochester Americans were invited to play and represent the United States? They got killed in the first two games, i think Davos won like 9-2 but they won their last two, and finished in 3rd place? Also, interesting note, the Amerks wanted a legit backup goalie so they "loaned" Kevin Weekes to be the teams backup during the tournament from AHL's Carolina.

They play in roughly 2 hours and you can watch it.

Pominville,Hecht and Seidenberg vs. Stastny and Wheeler

[LaLaLaFontaine]

Thanks peppy,
i justed watched the second period. Pominville shots a lot but did not score so far.

Hecht scored his 15th point, 1 helper for the first goal.

[Peppy22]

There goes Hecht and Pominville's last chance, to win a championship this year.


MAJOR UPSET in Germany...


In Germany we have pre-playoffs.

FIrst 6 go through,

7th vs. 10th (Best of 3)
8th vs. 9th (Best of 3)


So the first round this year was:

(1.) Adler Mannheim vs. (10.) Grizzly Adams Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg won the Best of 7 series 4:2. Never ever before has a 10th seed knocked out the 1st seed in Round 1. Major Upset.

Mannheim was the big favorit to become champion this year.

Apparently I got my colors mixed up.  So it went to game 5 and I'm guessing Berlin won that as well?

[Peppy22]

Yeah 3:1

[LaLaLaFontaine]

Ahhhh this threat is as painful as Sabres hockey.

My pain reliever team, which let me survive the bad hockey of the Sabres, got the Buffalo Sabres flue by playing without heart against a team who really wants to win.

Not a good hockey year.
