Ice Tigers can surprise
Our opponent Nuremberg starts the duel from eleventh place in the table. Nevertheless, the Ice Tigers are always good for surprises. The Franconians were also recently in action against Mannheim and Ingolstadt.
Like our boys, coach Tom Rowe's team took three points from these two games: The 2:0 win against the Eagles was followed by a clear 0:6 at the Panthers. The Ice Tigers can still be satisfied with their start to the calendar year, as only five teams have a better point average in 2023.
Treutle, Weber, Reimer - Nuremberg axis is in place
With Niklas Treutle in goal (catch rate: 90.5 percent), strong defenders like Marcus Weber or the forward line around scorer Gregor MacLeod (37 scorer points) and captain Patrick Reimer, the Ice Tigers are well positioned. Also important: Daniel Schmölz. When the German national striker approaches the goal, caution is called for.
