Growing and capable of improvement
“I think we experienced players have to hold each other against something. We just have to lead the team with more dominance.”, said top defender Seider, who is contesting his third World Cup at the age of only 21. The first of seven group games on the way to the quarter-finals “rather mixed” been, he summarized: “There were some plays that I wasn’t happy with.” NHL forward Stützle von den Ottawa Senators accounted for: “We can still improve as the tournament progresses.” Unlike the World Cup, no NHL professionals took part in the Olympic Games in Beijing.

Character and morals were right
Three months ago, the 2018 Olympic silver medalist started the tournament with a 1:5 loss against the Canadians. It was the beginning of a disappointing participation. This time the team of national coach Toni Söderholm made a better impression. But the Finnish coach also warned: “One danger in the tournament is believing that you can just progress the way you played the last game”the 44-year-old replied to the question of how much courage the final third gave: “If you think it will just go on like this, you have a problem. We need experience for that.”

Unlike in Beijing, character and morale were right this time against strong Canada. After a 0:2 in the first third, the underdog came thanks to Marc Michaelis from the second-class North American AHL to the connection (28th). And even after a significant 1: 5 deficit in the meantime, the 2021 World Cup semi-finalist did not give up and improved the result thanks to the goals of Matthias Plachta (42nd) from Adler Mannheim and Seider (53rd). The star defender scored three points with one goal and two assists, Stützle prepared two goals.
