Deutschland Cup
 

Does somebody know when the official Rosters for the "Deutschlandcup" next Weekend will be announced? Could be a great Team Canada when you look at all the Players in Europe right now.

I live 1h from Munich and will be in attendance.

Switzerland's roster has been announced already, but I couldn't find anything about the three other teams.

I guess it should be announced soon, the tournament starts in just one week.

i think that is last years Roster of Team Canada. Brathwaite has retired and Schneider is injured f.e.

EDIT: Must be two years ago cause Derek Hahn is playing for Ingolstadt since 2011 and not Straubing

The slovak roster is this years roster, but the Canadien one is from 2010. I hope they release the rest of the rosters soon. I want to put these teams in my NHL 13 and see who comes out on top.

Well the German and Swiss teams will be playing without any of the NHL-players who are currently playing in Europe.

This is the German team:

Goalies: Dimitrij Kotschnew (Hamburg Freezers), Dennis Endras (Adler Mannheim), Rob Zepp (Eisbären Berlin)

Defensemen: Sinan Akdag (Krefeld Pinguine), Moritz Müller (Kölner Haie), Jens Baxmann, Frank Hördler (beide Eisbären Berlin), Nikolai Goc (Adler Mannheim), Benedikt Kohl, Benedikt Schopper (beide EHC Wolfsburg), Florian Ondruschka (Straubing Tigers), Felix Petermann (EHC München)

Forwards: Alexander Barta (Rögle BK/Schweden), Martin Buchwieser (EHC München), Garret Festerling, Jerome Flaake, David Wolf (alle Hamburg Freezers), Kai Hospelt (EHC Wolfsburg), Marcus Kink, Frank Mauer, Christoph Ullmann (alle Adler Mannheim), Philip Gogulla, Felix Schütz (beide Kölner Haie), Thomas Greilinger (ERC Ingolstadt), Marcel Müller (MoDo Hockey/Schweden), Daniel Pietta (Krefeld Pinguine), Patrick Reimer (Nürnberg Ice Tigers), Michael Wolf (Iserlohn Roosters)


And this is the Swiss team:

Goalies (2): Reto Berra (EHC Biel), Martin Gerber (Rögle BK / SWE)

Defensemen (8): Eric Blum (Kloten Flyers), Alessandro Chiesa (EV Zug), Patrick Geering (ZSC Lions), Robin Grossmann (HC Davos), Clarence Kparghai (EHC Biel), Romain Loeffel (HC Fribourg-Gotteron), Tim Ramholt (HC Davos), Patrick von Gunten (Kloten Flyers)

Forwards (14): Andres Ambühl (ZSC Lions), Patrik Bärtschi (ZSC Lions), Simon Bodenmann (Kloten Flyers), Dario Bürgler (HC Davos), Ryan Gardner (SC Bern), Denis Hollenstein (Kloten Flyers), Inti Pestoni (HC Ambrì-Piotta), Kevin Romy (Geneve-Servette HC), Daniel Rubin (SC Bern), Fabian Schnyder (EV Zug), Victor Stancescu (Kloten Flyers), Reto Suri (EV Zug), Julian Walker (Geneve-Servette HC), Roman Wick (ZSC Lions).

Canada and the Slovaks to, so basicly this Tourni sucks...

... do you watch hockey or just the names on the back of the jerseys? those are still good rosters, will be good hockey

I`m watching hockey every week in the Stands in Germany. But the same Players that are playing at the Deutschlandcup are playing in the DEL, so its kind of boring for me. I was looking forward seeing some "NHL Stars", Switzerland is not far away from Germany...

These tournaments exist for the coachs to try players, line combinations and work on their system, there is no point in trying to have the best possible team now.

For Canadas Point of View this is not right. Canada plays the Deutschlandcup every Year with Players from the DEL. These Players never played in a other Tournament.
Even the Coach is not the "real" one.

I`m not talking about best possible, but some NHL Players would have been nice. Maybe it`s also a insurance problem like the NHL Player from Germany who are also not playing.

True, Canada is a bit of a special case. I guess that from their point of view, the main benefit of that kind of tournament is to give staff experience with internation hockey and short competitions and to see if they can work there way to a World Championship or Olympic team.

Just a guess, but I can't think of any other reason for Canada to play in this tournament.

Dont think so.

Coach will be Rich Chernomaz, longtime DEL Coach and now in Ingolstadt. The Rest of the staff are also "German based". Dont think Rich will be in play for any bigger tournament.
I think its a bit like Spengler Cup, Canada has a big Name and trys to give a good show with little effort (costs).

A Team Canada with Thornton,Nash,Giroux,Myers would have been great one hour away from my home, too bad...

The Swiss League has agreed to only let it's Canadian players play in the Spengler Cup, not The Deutschland Cup. That's why there are no "regular" Canadians from the NLA at the tournament either

The Canadian goalie in this(Canada-Slovakia) game looks like a soup sandwich.

Having said that, it's cool to see some different international games. If the No-Hockey-League hadn't been locked out I wouldn't have heard of this tournament(also looking forward to the Spengler Cup again this year, I'm very much in the minority in this regard).

I'm enjoying the Deustchland Cup, even if Team Canada's best player is Nigel freaking Dawes.

Just finished watching Germany beat Slovakia 2-0 and I could really go for some Calcium-Sandoz. Or Magnesium-Sandoz, for that matter.

This is not true, leagues can't prevent their players from playing for their national team during international breaks.

Team Canada is mostly made of DEL players because Hockey Canada wanted it this way.
