No Deutschland Cup for Moritz Seider due to Swedish coronavirus restrictions

This news comes from long-time IIHF.com writer and Alliance of European Hockey Clubs Director Szymon Szemberg:

Eishockeynews.de is reporting that Red Wings prospect Moritz Seider is going to remain in Sweden with Rogle BK during the Deutschland Cup due to coronavirus concerns.

Germany’s national team coach, Toni Soderholm, also tested positive for the coronavirus, so the German national team will be shorthanded during the Deutschland Cup.

This week is a week off for the SHL due to the various camps and cups taking place–the Deutschland Cup, the Karjala Cup (Jonatan Berggren and Filip Hronek are taking part in that one), the Swedish and Finnish World Junior Championship selection camps (see: Lucas Raymond, Albert Johansson, Gustav Berglund, Albin Grewe and Theodor Niederbach taking part for Sweden), et. al., so Seider will get a chance to catch his breath and settle down in Angelholm a bit.
