Just a reminder that, in Europe, at least, teams’ training camps are about to get underway by the end of the first week of August: Mannheimer Morgen, the main newspaper in Moritz Seider’s off-season home, let us know that his German Eishockey Liga “parent club,” the Adler Mannheim, took part in their annual charity golf tournament today:
Sankt Leon-Rot. This year, the Adler Mannheim once again traditionally swapped out their ice hockey sticks for golf clubs at the start of their preparations. At the “Eagles’ Cup,” the golf tournament where they collect money for the association “Adler Helfen Menschen” (Adler Helps People), prominent visitors were also in attendance. The two former Eagles and current NHL players Moritz Seider and Tim Stuetzle also hit the golf ball over the perfectly-manicured greens. For the Adler/Eagles, meanwhile, their first on-ice training session is on Tuesday, before the team presents itself for the first time to its fans on Saturday at the “Boys Are Back in Town” party.
As much as I like Raymond, I was hoping Stutzle would have been available at 4th.
Ich auch (me, too).
