♪ (soft music) ♪ that was way too much. give me a b. - give me a "b"!- "b"! b! - give me an "a"!- "a"! - give me an a.- a! and what does that mean? humba-humba-humba-tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤ã¤!tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤ã¤! tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤ã¤!
humba-humba-humba-tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤! it's the guys that really takethe team concept to heart. they've got to prove themselves, they've got to learn that now every day. it's exciting to be back on the ice. i think everyone's really happythis season is going to start too. yes, it is always nice to be on the ice againafter the summer. we're all just looking forwardto getting in better shape everyday.
practices are intense andthat's kind of how you want 'em. you want to get ready for game shape, so we got a little bit of time hereto get ready. we have defense-menwho can really move a puck, forwards really like that. we have guys that are proven players,proven performers, and proven winners. no scrums? no fights today? no, no fights.we're just getting to know the guys. i really think,that the munich team
had the potential just before the season,to achieve a top 4 rank. but there were alsosome question marks left. for instance, they didn't know, how good a pinizzottois really working out on ice, how his toughnesswould be received here. starting:jaffray! kastner! mauer! sã¶derholm! boyle und a.d. birken! what's your order here?you guys have a special order? you guys have a special order? like whoever shoots first?
sparrzy and i would and then seids. fast hockey, fast hockey. for me, fast hockey is give and go. we're going to get the pressure. we're going to make quick passes and we're going to skate. let's go get 'em mate. have a little fun. two's a streak. two's a streak.
yes sir. the whole game like that too? the fans? go, go go! high, high, high! are you fucking stupid? i'll fucking kill you. hey-- hey, that was a good hit. what do you mean?hey, that's a good hit. no?
boy, you can't pull blindsides-- blindside, it was straight on. we can't see you. come on. can't see it. the first guy was on you. the second guy was also on you. i could have just run right through. real quick,pressure was phenomenal. forecheck was phenomenal. start up two is working.
they were not along those quick playsin the middle of the ice. b, your pinches, excellent. make sure we're stayingon those pinches. make sure that we're physicalon the draw. he's got this-- he's got this line. this is the guy that we kind of like|to be at. heads up, heads, heads, move it,move it, move it. you're not the fuckingfirst one here, boys. nice fuckin' try boys!
i'll tell you, for me, it's hardto look past one season. you plan for it and thenyou start day by day executing, making decisions every day, making practice plans, changing line ups,replacing injured players, and we had a great staff with our physios. they had a hard job. they would come in
and they would always have bad news like, "this guy is hurt" or "that guy is hurt" and so we started to call themthe bad news bearers, you know. the joke would be that don't they shoot the messengerswhen they bring bad news? then they started wearinga bullet-proof vest. they'd come in with vests on and then later on they stopped coming in, they started calling.
coming to germany, i didn't really knowwhat the style of play was going to be, how the feel of the dressing roomwas going to be, but it's been great for the first monththat i've been here i've enjoyed every minute of it. i think we've got a good leadership groupon our team that kind of helps it, the new guys out for sure. coming as new player into a team, it is most important,to be curious about everything and to find your place in the team,
and in this team, i think,this is really easy. yeah, it was kind of a quick trip for us. we got there at nightbut i did see the church coming in and it was a beautiful sight, some of a spot we'd like to goand see a little bit more of. the first day on this tripwas actually interesting. it's always good for the team to get away. they get to know each other a little bit. dominik told me he is the king of munich,
so he takes his seat first and then i take a seat after dominik. that's how it works.no problem for me. he can take a seat,wherever he wants. do you have yourpassport with you? yes, he's a good guy. my roommate is steve pinizzotto. i knew him before i came here, so i knew a lot about him
but he's good with technology so he's got a lot of moviesthat we can watch. i think it's been really good, got a couple card games in with the guys and figured out who likes to play cardsand who likes to gamble. we also got to see whothe best card players are on the team too. i just won a game, so that's always good. it's been a lot of fun. ♪ (dynamic music) ♪
but we got a lot of good veteran guysthat have been here for a long time that are very helpful, guys like wolf and regehrand smaby and dehner have been huge helps for myself. oh boy. crowded in here, huh? i just did an interviewwhile laying on a massage table. - you're next man.- not happening. we have a very experienced crewand it does make a lot of fun so far
and i think, this is what we also haveexperienced until now and of course i hope,this will continue. before games on the roadthere is almost the same procedure. we're getting up early,having breakfast together and then we're off to the stadium, pre-game skate usuallytakes 20-30 minutes. then the player may shoot or the goalkeepers doextra training on the ice. through all daykeeping this concentration.
it makes you think about it,how everything looks in the stadium. are there fans?how noisy is it? which player has the opponent?tactical matters. and it's important for me also during the last oneto one and a half hours, also to think about other things. then i play card gameson my ipod, this is the only card gamewhat i do, because i have to reconsider other stuff.
after a match you'll noticehow exhausting it really is, not only physically,but mentally as well. there are a lot of things in a match. i'm getting along well with markusover the past ten, twelve years. he knows my quirks,i know his quirks, he is extremly helpful for me and for the whole team and actually he knows exactly,what we want and what we need, and these people are extremlyimportant for us,
not just for me,but for the whole team, and then all in all we are glad,that we have markus and didi. pre-game-meal is always important,a short break for the players, afterwards the video-meeting before the matchand then we went off in the stadium and all this stuff should work. this wasn't an easy gamefor us against hc. good team,even in the slovak league. the opponent put the pressureonto our system, but we were ready to play.
champions league has beena lot of fun so far and obviously we won the first game so that's always a good stepin the right direction. then i'm glad. honestly, i really have to say,i thought here, that the coach at the orationwas waiting for me, because i had to give a short interview and i did not really thought this far. when i saw the jersey and this helmethanging by my seat,
i should have really figured outthere is something behind this. don't know, who had this idea,but it was very funny. i'm strongly assumingit was daniel sparre, but i cannot tell for sure. when you play together,train together, sweat together, then you know each other betterthan many people. it's just the time outside of the matches,in the dressing room. i am not this young aynmore,so i am enjoying this time now much
and maybe more than ever in my career. i don't know,how long i am going to play, but the feeling,to belong to a team, is the best.that is all i can say. the definition of team is-- is not having 18 guys,it's having the 25 guys or the 23 guys that we're carrying. of course, the moodis very playful, if you win the game at the endand we knew, of course,
that it is going to continue now and tomorrow it's alreadycontinuing against klagenfurt. they're going to want their first gameunder their belt as a win we'll be ready to go. ♪ (music crescendoes) ♪ the players arrive at the beginning and then it's day by day and there were certainly timeswhen you wondered how you're going to get it together.
in those early weeks of the season, winning some games,we've been having a lot more difficulty than we think we should and fortunately the guysfinally get together, talk it over in the room,and they get the job done. great game last night.i wish everybody a good trip. so after beating koå¡icewe were of course very happy and we were already eagerfor the next match in klagenfurt. - hello!- hello!
hello! (group) hello. the journey was amazing,had a lot of fun with the guys. even the flight was superb. the hotel in villach was amazing, with the sauna,with the thermal bath behind, many have enjoyed this,and have relaxed and were also ready to play again on sunday in klagenfurt. so i'm sharing my roomwith yannic seidenberg,
already last yearand we already know us from mannheim and are actually very closely. yannic's the elder, and must then alsobe the first to the bathroom, also because for him it alwaystakes a bit longer than me. he says what he thinks,which is often very funny, when he might just have picked ona small, young player, because they screwed up something again, where perhaps another onewould have said nothing, but on the other side
a very lovable person again of course, when you see,how he skypes with his children and also on icehe is a very good player. he reads the game incredibly well and is very importantfor our team of course. my defense is really strong,which i appreciate, that many shots are blocked,many sticks are in the way and cleaned up really goodin front of the goal as well. so, now danny isa very difficult guy.
on the ice as well as off the ice ...noo, rubbish. i know danny alsofrom the national team and we are alreadyused to one another, and he is a very good goalkeepertransmitting a sense of calm. before the match, or during the matchwe talk to each other, communication worksreally very good and it is fun. you must always keep working on yourself,you want to improve every day, thats why you come into the stadium and simply exerciseevery day as hard as it gets.
so after the point shots are established we decided we're going to go the low play. when you look at the young playersthat we have, they want nothing more than to get better and as a coach, that's the foundationof all we can ask for. ♪ (dynamic music continues) ♪ our job is to help them get better and it's a really rewarding thingas a coach to see the players have success.
something significantin defensive zone coverage, they try to swarm a little. as soon as the puck stops,we'll start to see three guys get into the corner. they've got three guys that are tryingto outnumber us down low, so for us, step one is try notto let the puck stop. if we're always moving,the puck is moving, we're skating. if we're stoppedwe're an easy target but if the puck is moving, if we're moving
it makes it really hard to do this. our coaching staff breaks down the video into the elements of the game, forechecks, breakouts,special teams, face offs, and then we'll make notesspecifically for our players and really when we're watching the games the biggest thing we're looking for is things that we're doing really well that we want to keep doing well
and then we're looking for thingsthat we can do better. so when we're looking at our pre-scouts, the things we're looking at arethe other team's breakout patterns, the way that they forecheck,their special teams, who their top players are, any moves that they like to do, and then we're having a big focuson what our strategy will be. here i think they've done a great job. we go over a lot of video.
we work on systemsin between practices, before games, and i think derek and matthave done great video presentations before most of our games and have us prepared for the games. sometimes it goes so fast, so we have to make a live video sectionduring the game, so were able to analyzethe match already in the intermission something to correct in the system or being able to correctthe size of individual errors.
for every minute video,we present, it is at least oneto two hours of work for the trainer. in the end it's worth it,to do this. and so one big key to this play, you watch the krefeld player's stick it's going to sweep over to the other side and while that stick sweepsto the other side, that opens up the lane that tobiis able to make his little move and now he gets in and he's all alone.
so i have to say,we came slowly into the game. a bit asleep at the beginning,klagenfurt was immediately there. certainly they werethe better team at the beginning. (commentator) the puckgoes across the line. too much to handle.emotions get high. after that wepulled together a bit and got out. and they create chaosin the defensive zone for klagenfurt and boyle scores.
so at the beginning it was hard, but i have to say,we have fought back well. then i have seen it as wellin the middle, that kasti is running one against one and then i quickly rushedthrough the center towards the goal and kasti made a super move,placing it onto me and i have managed somehow to put itacross the goalie's pads. this is munich, straight back,and a goal and it's a massive one! maximilian kastner stays with it,
he's dumped, he goes hardinto the end boards... how about the play madeby maximilian kastner who's down in the corner,injured after it? unfortunately we lost max on that play and it was disappointing. it was really disappointing because we're with himfor so much this summer watching him train and watching him work. he's really doing a great job for our team
and he's becoming a big part of it. i think he's backon the right path now and he will certainlyfight himself back there, because he is a cool guy and also a superb playeron the ice. we've got good doctorsand we've got good physios and we've got good trainers that are going to help him get backas quickly as he can. so a team means to me,
it's a feeling of selflessness. it's a feeling of working for somethingthat's bigger than yourself. it's a feeling of sacrifice. to do everything for the teams success. whether it be a marriage, or whether it be a hockey team, there's not much better feelingthan being a part of a real team. i have to praise this very much this year,so everyone is fighting for one another and that's really good.
when i was young, i was alwaysvisiting pro matches in czech republic and then also in germanyi was always in the stands and watching the pro'sand in klagenfurt there was a situation, where seven of us, players,went out after the game still partying on a bitwith the fans. then we wanted to leave and then they have called my name again, but i did not know exactlywhat i should do. then franky mauerlocked the door
and then i had to sort of remain out and then sat alone on the ice, but, as i said, one feels honored when all the fansare shouting your name. humba-humba-humba-tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤!tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤! tã¤tã¤rã¤ã¤! and yes. amazing. i believe,it really honors kahun, that he has incredible playing potential and i believe,although at the beginning
it worked out really goodfor him in offense and he scored incrediblemany points, even during the seasonhe had to learn in this process,the team has gone through, that defense is also important. so you learn a lotfrom the older, experienced players, for example, jason jaffray, how many times he explains to methe face-off situation after the game how to do it right,since i have had my problems so far.
jason jaffray was oneof the new players, which you had little on the radar and of course he instantlyset a benchmark with the eight-matches-eight-goals,new del-record. then of course alreadyone of the new players is directly in focus. i mean jaffs is a playerin every category; he does well, he shoots well, he's a big body,he's in great shape, and those are tough things to find
in a complete player. he was definitely a good additionfor our club this year. my decision making onwhere i'm going to go play has to do a lot with my family. i've got a nine year oldand a five year old now. i'd never been to europe,i'd never been to germany, so this was a wholenew situation for myself. here we go. really cool.
i think we areabsolutely ready for oktoberfest and are very excitedand look forward, and now actually only tobi ederhas to work on his schuhplattler, and then, i think,we are ready to go. i believe,the team has eventually figured out that we have a very good team, but we must alsowork extremely hard for this, for achieving success in the end. fuck, why is that so hard right now?
can't feel my legs... there are good personalitiesin this team, calm people like michael, uli, and then players,which ensure a good mood, franky, florian and there are a lot of good peoplein this team. also good personalities. who is coming?who is coming? of course it is hard.
i mean, you comefrom another club and you also have expectationsfor yourself. and of course you wantto put yourself into a proper perspective and claim a good place in that way. just because the coachdoesn't even know you of course, first you have to prove yourself and then i was stilla bit handicapped from the last season, because my knee was still injured. it's been difficult for mein the beginning.
and then as i was just backon my foot somewhat, and then came an injury at the right shoulderand of course that was damn bitter. of course, you sporadicallythink about it. do you come back?how is it, when i'm back? am i able to return to my performancecurve again, or will it take longer? is it going to be a transitional season? or i come back,and it does just work out? but also my girlfrienddid always help me very much and always supported mewith encouraging words,
which in such phasesi think, as an athlete is quite nice, when you have people in the background,coaxing you. kettemer for example.who has already lost two finals and that isa brutal disappointment. this brings you down properly. but well, flo. what can be said about him at all? he has always a smile on his lips.
yes, i think,we are in a beautiful city. it's fun to dress up good.i feel so well. always a stupid slogan. think i can still show frank mauera lot and help him. yes, you can experience with himbut every now some odd little story, those i think where youhave to smile about afterwards. or what do you say? what kind of stories are this? since you can not elaboratethis now in public.
flo is someone, like said with whom we had a lot of fun,could laugh a lot and often carries this overto others. and therefore we liketo have him with us, stenz. who has made definite progress. of course ketzi now has alreadybecome a munich checker. so, he is really quite tranquil. how he always delivers crude behaviorin downtown and else. - this is of course something ...- that has to be earned.
that's what you have to aqcuire, yes! you go through a course of a season, there's so many inside jokes, there's just themes that come up. oh yeah, i mean you love to see the guys having fun and they do that and work hard too. that's always the key to having fun. overall you have to say,
in our group chatthe battles were incredible. yeah, it's always interestingwhen you join a team later in the year, guys that are developing relationshipsand got to know each other. leggio, who came indeed during the season,and like so often you say about goalkeepers there was something very weird about him and funny, where you had to laugh a lot. i quickly found outthat it's a pretty tight team, a team that liked to jokearound and make jokes and give it to each other.
i learned that pretty quick. every single player on this team in 10, 15 years you'll be able to nameevery single guy on the roster. that doesn't only come from just winning, that comes from having fun with these guys and everyone being so tight. at the end of the day,when everyone's like that, that's how you build a championship team. here we are on a penalty kill face off.
we don't win but now what we want to do is we want to try get out and block the shot. daryl is faced with a decision right now, he can either find a way to block the shot or he can get out of the way. so daryl comes down and ends upblocking the shot, thank god it didn't hit himanywhere but the visor and he ends up being okay. we definitely don't want guystaking pucks off their head
but it just shows a lot of character for daryl and the kind of playerthat he is. but yeah, hit me right in the visor, broke the visor in half, and it was just something thati didn't want to watch for a while but i did watch it and it's probably not the best wayto go about it but possibly saved the goal,so i'll take that and i wasn't seriously hurt
but it's definitely somethingthat was pretty scary and then we did get the win that night, so that was, i guess, it was all worth it. me and our goalie coach patrickwould watch the video and no matter what the game was shut out, five goals against,and you learn from it. you have to learn from itand then you have to put it away. you can't be too high or too low because you're playing well
or you had a bad game. you always just got to learnfrom those things and then hopefully they make youstronger in the end. okay good, scoot over to the right. oh! this wasn't a match. bitter, isnt it? indeed, shouldnt takethe fun for sports from him. victory and defeatare alternating,
but you always have won matches,also close matches. there were many new players,which just took a bit of time, until everything has come together. the system that we play,takes a bit of time, until you knowwhat exactly you have to do. but faith in the team,was always there, because we knew,what we have. especially defeats revealwho the characters in the team are and then how the overall characterof the team is.
and i thought on this team everyone played their role. there was no one looking or doingother things trying to do too much. everyone had their role. we have guys that play power play, we have guys that penalty kill, and we have guys that don't do either but when they're on the icethey're effective and they do their jobs
and that's what our team was built on. yeah, danny and i, i think we're bothgood teammates toward each other. we respect each other and it could have been either of us in the net in the playoffs. head coach made a tough decision. i'm happy it was me but i think we couldhave had the same success with him. with david leggio we'vecertainly been lucky again, but you also should not forgetdanny aus den birken,
having played an excellent season. tonight, wearing the 33:danny! aus den birken! i'm also not the youngest anymore and i never was a great dancer, but then i didnt wantnot say no again and then i just tried,to unpack my dancing shoes, but i think,i then rather forgot them. so, i am not a great dancer,
but i'll like to do it again now and then. i think such a turning pointin a complete season were these two halleluja gamesaround christmas. played twice in the olympic hall,significantly won there twice, and not only clearly won,but noticed there for the first time, how incredibly goodthe defensive can be, because actually it wasalready insuperable. no chances allowed, nothingand given nothing to the opponent. perhaps it was this focuson the halleluja-matches,
where it has been said,if already 12,000 people are there, then we want to show perfectionand then the consistency came. halleluja!zefix. hockey hallelujah. zefix hallelujah. hockey hallelujah. zefix hallelujah. (laughter) hockey hallelujah.zefix hallelujah. zefix hallelujah!
zefix hallelujah. fix hallelujah. hockey hallelujah. zefix hallelujah. hockey hallelujah. zefix hallelujah. (laughter) hockey halleluja! the ehc red bull munich against augsburger pantherand against the eisbã¤ren berlin. to beat augsburg the first night,
i was always told it doesn't matter what you do here as long asyou don't lose to augsburg. everybody seems likethat's our biggest rival and i'm starting to learn that. now i'm just going to flip my socks and that's always good video. just goals from last game and then some clipsfrom augsburg last time, which i thought was one ofour very top games
in forechecking and goal number one should win again, at the middle uli, wide, stickson the ice, deflecting in. the hard work part iskeeping the puck, okay? starting kahun, christensen, wolf, kettemer, regehr and aus den birken. i had such a premonitionhow it could be. when we went out for the first game, it really has exceeded everything.
thank you. back on track right away, good teams respondright away, that's us! i mean you can't hearthe person talking to you on the ice because they're extremely loudall game long. they're always chatting,there's always drums. we have to play harder.we have to play smarter. you've got to get your fucking feetgoing everywhere. you're the guy?you've got to move your feet.
my girls enjoy also every time to come in after the game. also they have a lot of friendsor players, they really like to visit. flo, they love him.they know him, since they were born, often he attends dinner with us at home,it is a amazing relationship between them. when you leave for the rinkand your son tells you to go win so you can come in the locker room, it means a lot after the gameto see him on the bench,
he has your jersey on, and he's smiling, he can't wait to see you. it brings a lot of emotion. you don't get to do that very often and to be able to spend winswith your family like that and then you know thatthey look forward to it. it's a lot of fun. muichkandl-cup. muichkandl-cup.
here is steve pinizzotto,local ontario native, rochester institute of technologyand alumni tiger. great job our there,showed a lot of heart, lot of courage, came up short,tell us about the game. i was just laid back, chilling, made a couple plays, tried to. you can ask kettemer, he went 145% in a fun game. florian kettemer absolutelyloves the game.
shows his heart on his sleeve every game. or maui too. just heart every game. ricky maurer another heart guy.big guy with a big stick. tim and mike. for me, that is really morelike a married labour couple. the two depend on each other,sitting on the bus next to each other, within the plane... so sometimes i feelthey can not breathe without each other. come on boys!
that's it! fuckin' right here! fuckin' right! both pampered me, where i had my shoulder injury and wasalmost out for four and a half months. so i owe both of themvery much, because thereafter i reallyhad no more problems. so, thanks, guys. working with don jackson isone of the biggest blessings
i've had in my life. he's... one of the most selflesspeople i've ever met and he's obviously got a lot of knowledge and understanding and he's gota lot of passion for the game. yes, that is like easterand christmas together. i mean, this is a manwith such an experience and above all humanity, he is always able to add to the match,
which i believe is unparalleled. there's two things that arethe most impressive i think, one of them is his humility, to have had so much successbut to remain so humble and the second thing that as a young coach sitting here looking at somebodythat i want to be like someday, seeing how much he reallygenuinely cares about the players. he sits in that room and he's constantly thinkingabout the players
and how are they goingto receive a message, how can they perform, how can he better serve them, and for me as a young coachlooking up to don, it's remarkable and i feel extremely luckyto work with him. this is what you shouldenjoy every day and you learn every day as well. he is the calm, and i must say,he got me pretty well under control, so i alreadybecame much calmer,
because don alwaysbrings me down then and says: "calm". all you have to dois watch him during a game and you know, you can tell pretty muchhow he's doing. you can have a camera on him all game and be entertained. he needs a camera. you can see the fire in his face, the fire after we lose, how mad he is,
and you're almost afraidlook him in the eyes. he's got a great story toofrom where he came from, from the third league to the second and kind of building his way up. i believe one growsalways with his duties and no one has to believe now, that the work in the thirdor in the second division is easier than in the first division. the circumstances thereare often more difficult,
but the work is still the same. there's no tough guy in the leaguethat's going to score a hat trick. i consider him a good player that can chuck the fist. he's got a great shot, he's got a goodset of hands on him, and he's very strong in corners, i'm glad he's on our team and i don't need to messwith him every night. i thought it would bea little more of a culture shock here,
but in munich especially,a lot of people speak english, so it's a lot easier for me and i think they're tryingto change the game a little bit here, try to add a little bit more physicality. it's a process and hopefullywe're going to be here for a long time. as far as my game i think i'm an aggressive guy, grew upwith two older brothers. they used to beat on me pretty good so that's where i got my aggressive side.
hey, you can't stay that close to him. everybody realized,well, this guy can play. he's not the bad guy of the del or just going to be a fighterthat breaks guys' jaws and does whatever, right? you saw it, right? in the playoffs finished,what, plus 15 rating? led our team in scoring, top fivein the league in playoff scoring. if you were to have said thatto the fans or the coaching staff
ten games into the season everybody would have been laughing at you. have you brushedyour teeth this morning? everyday buddy, twice. you? why do you have shit breath than? mine is brutal. i mean, i had a conversationwith my mom the other day, i said, "when i was a young guy and it was a sport,everything was fun every day"
so i mean now i've learneda lot about the game. it's obviously a business but i want to tryand make it a sport as well. when you're having funall the guys around you are having fun that's when the team starting winning. everyone is gelling as a group. hey, hey, hey. try to make the game fun. make it a sport, not a business.
at the end, it's all fun and i'm just trying to keep it that way. for me actuallyso my personal mvp, if i'm honest. he can be fired upon the ice, [up] on the bench and come into our bench and just have a regularconversation with us. big mac or a whopper? - big mac.- big mac?
i told you it's an art. it's not just a burger, it's a creation. how many big macs did you have? just one. come on. yeah but i'm not talking the full meal. - i'm talking hamburgers.- supersize, large size. you don't even believe that yourself. do you see my body, son?
what?! - have you seen it?- unfortunately. i think tony he definitely made mea better player coming in. the presence he has, he's a veteran, he knows the game, and i learned so much from him and guys like smabeswho you watch him on the ice and the hits he makes,
it almost makes you hurt too but you're just happy he's on your team. becoming succesful means, sometimes you have to go beyondthe absolute limit. there's a sayingthat the more aggressive that you are, the more detailedthat you have to be. especially now once we're gettinginto the playoffs and games are tighter, we want to do everything we can
to keep pucks away from the net. the fitness coaches... who likes fitness coaches? ah well, i like fitness coaches because they're having to dothe dirty work i don't have to do. i think they just enjoythe bikes too much. they like the bike. tobi likes the bike. quirin and tobi deserve a lot of credit for what they did and bringingthis work ethic to our team
and then there's markusand didi and heinzi who not only do great work but their job isto bring spirit into the room and that's what they did. your body takes a toll in the playoffs. you'll never rememberthe second place team. we are playing for the big,definitely. from the result ... certainly, if you playfirst versus ninth,
then this is a requirement,where you say: yes. munich should rathermarch through here. in the main round we hada hard time with them, they beat us four times. so, i've wished for straubingfrom the beginning, to play against straubing. because i hadsuch a confidence against them. i thought there was no wayanyone was going to stop us. these highlights of the serieswere maybe now not playful,
it was the fight in this seriesand it was of course a goalie fight. did happen last in 2004 del previously, so, for 12 years, no one has seenthis anymore here in the league. i thought it would help our team. he was having a really good game and i thought getting him out of the gamemight be the best thing for our team. that didn't happen.we both stayed in the game. i guess i'm not a very good fighter. i thought i would doa little better than that.
it didn't go so well for me but fortunately we won the gamein overtime. that was a big win for us. this verbal fight still betweensteven pinizzotto and sean o'connor, that was pretty great sport.verbally. hey, don't be scared! i'm here. you know where to find me. you know where to find me,when you'll be nowhere to be found. fuckin' 30 grand.
30 grand, you're awful. why are you talkin'? i don't understand. hey! get the fuck out of here! what are you going to do?you're a fucking east coaster. quit hockey. quit hockey. why are you tough now? why aren't you fighting?come fight me. - your team sucks.- fight me. fight me. but now here's the problem
because now if he jumps meor does something i can't fight him becausethen i'm suspended too. hey, how's your husband buddy? how's your husband? my bench! get away from my fuckin' bench. i will see you in munich buddy. let's fuckin' go - powerplay! and i believe,at the latest after this series, where the munich team has shown
that they reallyabsolutely fully play in the defense, really almost perfect play,allowing no mistakes, not allowing exactlythese counterattack opportunities, everyone has seen in the league: phew. they are to beat this year. we knew:okay, with this team and with the level of performance,what we have right now, there is quite something possibleand then finally cologne and wolfsburgwere also starting to notice that.
here, you're going to rush. - i want you nose in--- on the bag yeah. you've got to wait for it to infuse. that's like clear water for you. tea experts, look at those two. what the fuck? that's clear water. i'm taking it with me. i hate all of you. just bring a cup,i'll give you some of mine.
no, i don't want any of yours.i've got my own tea. - take this.- nope, this is all mine. - you guys are dicks.- oh my god, goalie. didi! - you know him?- no. hey welcome to the vip room. we're sending a message clearly. again, mads christensen scoredsix goals in the play-offs, he is just an unbelievableplay-off-monster.
don't film thiswhile i am taping so bad. the funny is i'm 34 years oldand i still kind of get nervous and i get butterflies before hockey games. after the warm up i just lay downand do some visualization, just different momentsthat would come up in the game and try to see myself makingthe proper moves and the proper saves and just get myself breathing and trying to relax.
we definitely don't controlwhat the referees call but all we can do is work to be there and kind ofkeep the sticks off, be physical, be tough, everything else. stand up for each other. some bullshit happens,so we stay focused on things. unrolling the thick calves. what an athlete. what an athlete. just working the hips, you know.
♪ (music builds) ♪ christensen, mauer, sã¶derholm boyle, and leggio. big time start, big time fun.let's go boys. playoffs baby! ♪ (intense music) ♪ defense! defense! ♪ (music continues) ♪ i don't know.
max, can you split that one acrossthe top of the crease like-- dude, if this guy has to worryabout two guys now when he's coming here, he's got three guys working. my guy backdoor-- he's just with me, he's turning around, he looked at me-- - i can't...- it's ust going to be like that-- - you here?- i'm here. and one guy plays you and kuhner.
one guy is playing me, tight, pretty tight 'cause we don't have a bumper. then the one abovemust make a decision. when you have it,and he is in the middle, then he is playing this just like normal, but when he passes and he walks, then he paces,you follow directly after him. you can run in. if you recieve it,then you pass it over,
and if not,you slam it in here. are you going to make that pass to me? i can't react, it's so tight. they roughly lined up like this. you can run in here. if he comes,then you pass it over. this is the most easiest for you. if not, hammer it yourself,we have one, two, three: we have mads here, we have pinner,and i'm coming in from behind
okay.yes. you know,this is the crucial point here. yes. the first guy on... you can hold him against and control, i'll do pressuretomorrow left side too. just want to be aware of that that left wing they pressure down. so if we can get by,i think we'll have a lot of time.
and then i saw you go backand i was like, "ah maybe i can make it." they came way over. no, it's perfect. remember we mighthave to win this game or not. it doesn't even change anything, change behavior, just keep going like we're going. one goal at a time. doing good here.
come on here boys. you go step out here-- they're hot guys, yeah. i love it! when he stops and he shoots, we love it. that a boy. power! power! one more! one more! (loud crowd drone) - good job. safe travels.- thanks.
long walk. this is a fuckin' long walk.i'm gettin' tired. starting jaffray, seidenberg, wolf, smaby, st. denis and leggio. if the d, if you guys get the puck just chip it out off the wall because if you make a pass the guyis right pitching it up. you know what i mean? go fuckin' get it. six field playersversus four îœunich players now.
last minute runs. gogulla into the center.there is the goal! there is the goal! 4:4!cologne really scores the equalizer. 34 seconds before the end. what a match. 4:4 34 seconds left to playin this period otherwise there is an overtime,with extension up to sudden death. but this 4:4,the equalizer has been scored,
everybody thought at first certainly. oh my god, what is going on here? nobody likes getting scored onin the last minute of a hockey game. you can see the face of coiner who missed the open net, myself who lost the drawright before that. of course, you are shockedfor a few seconds, but that's what makes a good team. well.
we still have 20 secondsor 30 seconds to go. why isn't it possibleto score a goal right again? fight for the finals!fight for the finals! so, the last few seconds again. penalty there against the kã¶lner haie, which is certainly transferredinto the overtime... - no! mauer has the puck and goal! there is no overtime.munich scores the 5:4. are you completely insane!
franky maurer scores the 5:4. 21.1 left on the clock. only 11 seconds after the equalizer. what a match here in munich.what a match. i never have experienced this. - "franky"- mauer! yes, man! i have never experiencedsomething like that. are you fucking kidding me, hey.
finals baby, finals. great season, bro! fuckin' right! yeah man! that's hockey! actually this serieswas very difficult to assess, well, from the beginning. before game one,and even after game one actually. i agree.
you simply knewthis would be fast matches, because both teamsin terms of skating skills really are at the top level and that it will be difficult,actually to score goals, because both teams have shownthat they are really complete in defense, are able to play top. the two chess grandmasters againsteach other, gross versus jackson. look for sticks, look for high tipsoff the end boards, just fuckin' hammer it.
ehc! come, flex your knees, power. so if he's driving right in front of you, change going flat, just pull him off. might be too slow. stick here, block,and then up this puck... block... but take the puck with you! go here and he backs out there.
this is perhaps then two on one. i don't know, where mine is. best period right now, eh boys? everything is done now. same energy, find yourself here. everything's smart. everything. last two periods won't fuckin' matter. do you fuckin' job, we'll be alright. jeremy dehner was playingincredibly then.
has scored a goal in three out of fourplay-off finals. i was incredible glad for him. he played incredibly,and he brought us somewhat further. you have to know about jeremy, that he had a black seriesin his career in finland for the wrong team,there in helsinki, but jeremy is a nice guy. he is very kind, he helped me a lotin munich at the beginning.
make sure you get in there and cool down because you recover quicker. recover quicker. please film steves display.the bike isn't switched on. here is food.very yummy. switch off the camera. turn off the camera! the same hairdresser. put in some wax.
how often are you goingto rub his hamstring? 'till they're ready to play. are they ready to play yet? my god, hey! i dont want to be treated with him anymore. my god. go to sleep. go to sleep.go to sleep. yes, so. then you arethirty minutes early, mate.
get out. - brutal.- brutal. man, what's going on, man! sausage party, or what? just send the baldy out there. the baldy? this one did fit. do-it-yourself taktop, or what? no, is there a spider somewhere here?
no, i'm going to get treated now. do you want my single room? you don't have a single room.you are with rogl, you fuckhead. you are with riggl. what about you, dude! hey pohl, get some hair.you ugly dog. good, like i still have hair. here just a few of the highlightssome of the forechecking and we talked about we want to work
our backs off the get there. every time we ended up like this we got the puck back and that's how we want to look, that's how we want to play. ♪ (upbeat music) ♪ i want to talk to you guys about options, and what you guys think, what you see. when you guys are switchingbut they're coming,
so good to keep the hands up. starting jeffrey, seidenberg wolf, sã¶derholm, boyle, leggio this is ****.keep our cool here. play ******* hard. let's stay focused here. hey, let him go.let him go! if you are the doing it so slowly,then it is much easier for me. okay. so i should hold a bit?
yes, like me, yes. yes, okay. that is perfect so. you could see no one at any time, who scoldedor something like that, but i think, that's exactlywhy we were this successful. all the other players,helped us there. whatever. but that makes a good teamand if we were needed,
we were there. as i said,in the end only this counts and that is the team. and because we countas individuals simply less. uli is simply a topclass team player and it was notalways easy for him. it is more challenging as athlet. i think, that is the most difficult. to remain mentally strong here,
uphold the confidence inany manner and i saw that in myself. certainly i have played not the hockeyin the last two years i am capable of. doubted myself much,whatever, but especially in this phasei really tried, to concentrate on it,not to think about, but to have a lot of fun in training
and then how everything worked outin the third final, as i said, has helped a lot. and uli coming into the matchkinda for me and just scores... so, i have granted him thisfrom the heart. come on boys, huh? hey everybody goes 100%! we are the better team guys! fuckin' bell.
let's go boys, let's go boys! - "uli!"- maurer! get the pucks in the net. every puck we win back, every fuckin' puck. i'm not going to wait a little bit then i'm going to pass it to you. i'm waiting too much. and then a coupleof those situations for sure,
is that we're kind of moving around in here like playing goalie. get the **** out there. get the feet goingand then start pumping. all you got to do istake one stride and shuffle, in case he moves, you can moveeither way with him. let's win! we are going to win. - "goal by mads!"- christensen!
- "mads!".- christensen! - "ehc red bull munich".- two! - "wolfsburg".- null! good job. hey jackson! what's up, jacks? can i get a high five or no?give me a hand-- jackson, come on. - welcome back jacks.- good smack.
one more baby. one more. wolfsburg lost players,lost important players, like a furchner,like a bina in the defense, they already had absentees. they didn't have such a depth in their squad. and this complete combinationdid actually prove that the series mayrelatively quickly comes to an end. i know the night before game four
i don't think i even slept but i felt like i slept. my body was ready to go. ♪ (suspenseful music) ♪ (keyboard clicking) (beeping) ♪ (suspenseful music continues) ♪ we haven't seen players wide,the same carry wide that we got to be here, shut that down...
yeah the puck went through the cage, which was kind of scary, actually. and the 1:0scored by toni sã¶derholm! a first step for munich. wolf with the prompt answer. they are merciless. wolfi, great shot. if you find yourself standingin the middle of ice when they got the puck
and you think they're goingto give it to you, they're not. don't count on it. - come on boys!- let's go. voakes scores the goal,and wolfsburg leads! wonderful pass to kastnerand the answer! 20 minutes everybody. let's fuckin' celebrate onthat fuckin' ice here boys. - come on--- let's shake some hands.
let's get it fuckin' done. we know we're fuckin' better here boys. they know we're fuckin' better. their fucking' fans knowwe're fuckin' better. go and fuckin' prove it here. yes, pinizzotto, hits the post! keith aucoin pushes munichvery close towards the cup. pinizzotto!what is he doing? steven pinizzotto slamsthe puck
into the corner. and the referees penalizethe goal celebration. it's not fun. you're not actually physically involved. you're just sittin' in there,it's kind of like you're in jail really. what a fuckin' snipe. it's all been said,it's all played in this final. and so it is now"finis coronat opus". you know it's coming when the buzzer goes
and those are the tears of joy. that's the best feeling,when you see, how men turn into children. the end crowns the workthe ehc red bull munich. german hockey champion 2016. number one baby! yeah! holy fuck, what a season. what a fuckin' season. yeah, we're champions!
yeah!! woo! german champion 2016. today golden rain is falling down upon the champion players,upon the champion team. it just doesn't feel like you're awake. it's a moment i'll never forget but at the time, i just felt like i was just watching somebodyget in my own skin.

how we did it now, finally a huge pressurewas dropping of me and now in retrospectthere is of course even more joy. this is maybe the best most entertaining year of my career. the last two weeks has been-- gives me chills thinking about it. it's been an incredible nine monthsright from the start and i wouldn't change a thing.
yes, it's a great feeling. even the giant celebration,we have had now. isn't it nice when so many fans attend and you see, it is accepted and with teammates to celebrate againwas also a terrific thing. german hockey champion!german hockey champion! german hockey champion!ehc! do you want see them at the coubertinplatzon the balcony of champions?
